Vancouver Dental Implants
Dental
implants are small titanium cylinders that are surgically inserted
into the bone of the jaw, A restoration is then anchored to the
implant. Since the implant is inserted into the jaw, surrounding
teeth are not affected. Also, bone levels are preserved an added
plus!
The
procedure: We
will create a model of your mouth which will allow us to make precise
measurements and pinpoint the optimum location for the implant.
Then we will surgically place the titanium cylinder. When the area
is healed, we will attach the custom-made restoration.
Will
they work for you?Implants
are a great way to replace missing teeth, whether it is a single
tooth, multiple teeth or a full set of dentures that you are replacing.
Dentures, bridges or individual teeth attached to the implant provides
stability and a more secure fit, as well as a more natural look
and feel.
You
are a candidate for dental implants if: you
have enough jaw bone, and dense enough bone, to secure the implants
you do not have a disease or condition that interferes with proper
healing after implant surgery (e.g. uncontrolled diabetes, or radiation/chemotherapy
for treating cancer)
