A Permanent Solution for Missing Teeth at Glenashton Dental Centre

Losing a tooth can impact more than just your smile—it can affect how you eat, speak, and feel about yourself. At Glenashton Dental Centre in Oakville, we offer dental implants, the gold standard in tooth replacement, to restore your smile’s health, function, and appearance with long-lasting, natural-looking results.

What Are Dental Implants?

A dental implant is a small, biocompatible titanium post that acts as an artificial tooth root. Once placed into the jawbone, it naturally fuses with the bone through a process called osseointegration, creating a secure foundation for a dental crown, bridge, or denture. Implants restore the function and stability of natural teeth, preventing bone loss, facial sagging, and shifting of nearby teeth. Because they integrate into the bone, implants feel and perform just like real teeth—allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

Benefits of Dental Implants

• Permanent and durable – With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
• Natural look and feel – Designed to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth.
• Improved chewing and speech – No slipping or discomfort compared to removable dentures.
• Preserves bone health – Stimulates the jawbone and prevents bone deterioration.
• Boosts confidence – Restores the natural beauty and function of your smile.

The Dental Implant Procedure

1. Consultation and Planning:
Your dentist evaluates your oral health, bone density, and overall suitability for implants using diagnostic imaging.

2. Implant Placement:
Under local anesthesia, the titanium implant post is surgically inserted into the jawbone. Over the next few months, it integrates with the bone to create a stable foundation.

3. Abutment and Restoration:
Once healed, an abutment (connector piece) is attached to the implant. A custom-made dental crown, bridge, or implant-supported denture is then securely placed, completing your restoration.

Thanks to modern implant dentistry, patients can replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or even an entire arch with implant-supported restorations that look and function naturally.

Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?

Most healthy adults are good candidates for dental implants. Ideal candidates have:

• Healthy gums and adequate jawbone density
• Good oral hygiene habits
• No uncontrolled medical conditions affecting healing

If bone loss has occurred, bone grafting may be recommended to strengthen the area before implant placement.
