Rejuvenate Your Smile With Dental Implants

If you’ve lost one or more teeth, dental implants may be your ideal smile rejuvenation solution! At Cedarbrae Dental in Scarborough, we’ve helped countless patients restore their smiles with dental implants in Scarborough and we’d love to answer any questions you have about this restorative solution, what’s involved, and whether it’s right for you!

What are dental implants and what benefits do they offer?

A small titanium, screwlike post that takes the place of extracted tooth roots, a dental implant (which is eventually topped with a customized dental crown) is designed to restore a patient’s chewing and speaking function, rejuvenate lost facial volume, stimulate the jawbone, and boost a patient’s speaking and smiling confidence.

Dental implants are placed during outpatient surgery, which is performed in stages. This ensures that healing can take place between each step, helping the implant anchor effectively.

Who is an ideal candidate for dental implants?

While many patients who have experienced tooth loss will be viable candidates for dental implants, it’s vital that they have healthy gums and strong jawbone density. Patients with weak or minimal jawbone density may still be able to have an implant placed, though they may require bone grafting before the implant procedure begins.
