When you are missing one or more teeth, it can affect both your smile and your confidence. Depending on how many teeth are missing, you may also experience trouble biting and chewing.
The friendly and knowledgeable dental professionals at Imagine Dental are here to help you find a solution. Dental implants can fill in your gaps and perfectly match your existing natural teeth.
Book an appointment today to see how dental implants can restore your smile and your oral health.
Dental implants are surgically installed artificial teeth used to replace missing or extracted teeth. Dental implants are an excellent choice when you want to permanently replace one or a few missing teeth to complete your smile.
Unlike dental bridges or dentures, dental implants are surgically inserted into the jawbone and do not require suction or adjacent teeth for support.
Although the entire dental implant process can vary from patient to patient, our general process is as follows:
Our dental professionals will examine your entire oral cavity and take a series of X-rays. Because dental implants require a certain amount of healthy jaw tissue, the X-rays will help us determine whether your jawbones are strong enough and substantial enough to support an implant.
We will also discuss the entire dental implant procedure with you, what you can expect, the average healing time, and your care instructions. We will answer all your questions and address any concerns you may have so you are fully informed and comfortable with the procedure.
Once we have confirmed your candidacy, we will schedule an appointment for your implant surgery.
After local anesthesia or sedation is administered, we insert the metal post directly into the jawbone. Once we have installed the metal post, you will need to rest and heal before we add your crown. This helps ensure the root of your artificial tooth is strong and stable.
Once the implant has healed and settled, we will take impressions of your dental implant and surrounding gums to create a custom tooth, or crown, that will blend in with your natural teeth.
Once your tissue and jawbone have healed, we will attach and fit your crown onto your implant using an abutment. We will ensure it is an exact fit, that your spacing and alignment is correct, and that your new tooth is comfortable.
Because dental implants are permanent and cannot be removed, they are treated the same as natural teeth. To care for your new tooth, you should be:
I’ve been going to Imagine Dental for over 6 years now. Prior to this, I had some terrible experiences with other dental clinics which caused some level of anxiety with Dental Offices. Imagine Dental recognizes this and always goes above and beyond in delivering excellent service. The team is friendly and very good at putting their clients at ease. They recognize and address each client’s individual needs. I hope they realize how appreciative their clients are to have them go the extra step. It definitely makes a difference. I always recommend them to anyone looking for a great dentist and will continue to do so.
I’ve been going to Dr. Danielle and Trish for hygiene at Imagine Dental for 5+ years and have been extremely pleased with the customer service, professionalism, and high quality dentistry and cleanings. So happy to have found a convenient downtown location that never disappoints.
I have been going here for several years and I am very pleased with the service I receive. They are always friendly and concerned for my comfort and well being. I would definitely recommend.
I’ve been struggling to find a solution for my sore jaw which surfaced after a car accident two years ago. I’ve visited various Physiotherapists, Orthodontists and Jaw Specialists and they all had little-to-no recommendations aside from ‘waiting it out’ or getting injections/expensive appliances.
After my last ‘wait it out’ recommendation, I decided to get a second opinion. Imagine Dental was close to my workplace, so it was convenient to stop by. I initially went in for an Invisalign consultation to check if getting some trays would help with my bite alignment & ease some pressure on my jaw.
Dr. Danielle was absolutely fantastic. She took a look at my bite and suggested a quick bite adjustment as a start, rather than jumping right into an expensive treatment. She did the bite adjustment and ‘wow’ – I can’t believe the difference it made. With all other avenues suggesting expensive and unrealistic solutions to my jaw pain, Dr. Danielle was honest and had the perfect solution.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and her clinic. Thank you!!
