Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots. Once healed, they support a custom-made crown that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.

Dental implants are an effective solution for:

• Replacing a single missing tooth
  

• Supporting a dental bridge for multiple missing teeth

• Stabilizing implant-supported dentures for full-arch restoration

At our Ontario dental practice, we use advanced imaging and technology to ensure the highest level of precision, comfort, and long-term success.

Advantages of Dental Implants

Dental implants are considered the most comprehensive and durable tooth replacement option available. Unlike traditional bridges or dentures, implants help preserve the integrity of your jawbone and oral structures.

Key benefits include:

• Permanent, secure, and non-removable

• Natural appearance and functionality

• Prevention of bone loss and facial sagging

• No need to alter or damage adjacent healthy teeth

• Improved speech, chewing ability, and comfort

• Easy care and maintenance with daily brushing and flossing

Implants also pair well with other treatments, such as cosmetic dentistry or teeth whitening for a comprehensive smile makeover.

Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?

Most healthy adults with missing teeth are potential candidates for dental implants. Ideal candidates typically:

• Have one or more missing teeth

• Are free from active gum disease

• Have adequate bone density in the jaw

• Do not smoke or are willing to stop during the healing process

Even if you have experienced bone loss, we may recommend procedures such as bone grafting to prepare for implant placement. Dr. Evan Baker conducts a thorough consultation and examination to determine your suitability and create a customized treatment plan.

The Dental Implant Process

Initial Consultation

Your journey begins with a comprehensive dental evaluation, including 3D imaging and a discussion of your health history and treatment goals. You can easily schedule an appointment online or call our office directly.

Surgical Placement

During the procedure, a small titanium post is placed in the jawbone where it will integrate naturally over the next few months. We use minimally invasive techniques and provide options for sedation dentistry to ensure your comfort.

Healing and Osseointegration

Over time, the implant fuses with your jawbone in a process known as osseointegration, creating a strong, stable foundation for the crown.

Crown Placement

Once healing is complete, we attach a custom-fabricated crown designed to match the color, shape, and size of your surrounding teeth. Our goal is to deliver natural, seamless results that restore both form and function.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do dental implants last?

When properly cared for, dental implants can last 15 years or longer. Routine cleanings and prevention visits play an important role in maintaining your results.

Is the implant procedure painful?

Most patients report minimal discomfort. Local anesthesia is used during the procedure, and we offer sedation options to ensure a relaxed experience.

What is the recovery time?

Initial healing usually takes a few days, but the implant itself integrates with the bone over 3 to 6 months. Normal daily activities can often be resumed within 24 to 48 hours.

Can dental implants be combined with cosmetic treatments?

Yes. Implants are often integrated with aesthetic procedures like veneers, whitening, or bonding treatments to achieve a complete, natural-looking smile.
