During the the dental implant procedure, one of our knowledgeable Calgary dentists will surgically install an artificial tooth wherever you have a tooth that is severely decayed or missing. Dental implants are an excellent choice when you want a secure, fully functional replacement tooth.
Unlike dental bridges, dental implants are surgically inserted and do not require adjacent teeth for support. However, our Calgary dentists will carefully assess your teeth and advise which restorative dental procedure is right for you.
Contact our Calgary dental clinic to find out how our team can help you achieve a more aesthetically pleasing and healthy smile.
The first step in the dental implant procedure is to take an X-ray to determine if you have enough bone tissue to support an implant.
Once your candidacy is determined, we’ll give you anesthesia to make sure that you experience little or no pain throughout the procedure. We’ll remove the decayed tooth, if necessary, and insert a special titanium metal implant designed to mimic the root of a tooth.
Most patients make a quick recovery following the procedure, typically within one week. Over the next few months, we’ll wait as your implant begins to heal into your jawbone.
Once the healing is complete, we’ll install a post or abutment and add your new crown.
If your original tooth was causing serious problems, the new dental implant will let you finally get back to comfortable and healthy living. Your dental implant will look and function exactly like a real tooth, so that you can eat, talk, and smile comfortably.
