Vancouver Dental Implants

If you are looking for a reliable solution for one or more missing teeth, dental implants could be the ideal option for you. At Redtree Dental, we are proud to provide dental implants as a durable foundation for replacement teeth that not only look and feel natural, but also function just like your own teeth!

Dental implants are small, screw-like titanium posts that are permanently placed into the jawbone in areas where teeth are missing, effectively serving as replacements for natural tooth roots. These implants securely integrate with the jawbone through a process known as osseointegration, providing a stable foundation on which to attach artificial replacement teeth. This innovative approach not only replicates the appearance of natural teeth but also restores functionality.

For individuals who seek a better option than dentures or bridges, dental implants offer a valuable alternative. When natural tooth roots are absent, implants present a practical solution that overcomes the limitations of other tooth replacement methods. They provide a durable and aesthetically pleasing option that enhances both the look and function of your smile, ultimately promoting better dental health and overall well-being.

Dental implants provide numerous benefits, making them an ideal choice for tooth replacement. One of the main advantages is their ability to create a strong and permanent foundation for artificial teeth, effectively mimicking the function of natural tooth roots. This stability creates a secure and comfortable fit for replacement teeth, promoting optimal chewing function and allowing you to enjoy a varied and nutritious diet without limitations. Dental implants also avoid the trimming down and increased decay risk of adjacent teeth that is associated with bridges and dentures. The affected tooth is simply replaced, without affecting neighbouring teeth at all.

Additionally, dental implants help preserve jawbone density by preventing the bone loss often associated with missing teeth. Unlike traditional solutions such as dentures or bridges, implants encourage healthy bone growth and stimulate the jawbone through osseointegration, which helps maintain its strength and structure. Aesthetic appeal is another key benefit, as dental implants closely resemble natural teeth, enhancing the overall appearance of your smile and boosting self-confidence. With their durability, improved oral function and natural look, dental implants serve as a comprehensive and long-term solution for effective tooth replacement.

The implant surgical process begins with a comprehensive examination and treatment plan conducted by your dentist at Redtree Dental, who will evaluate your oral health to determine your suitability for implants. Once you are cleared for the procedure, titanium implant posts are carefully placed into your jawbone at the sites of your missing teeth under local anesthesia. After the implants are placed, a healing period follows, during which osseointegration occurs, securely anchoring the implants within your jawbone. Once this integration is complete, abutments (connecting pieces that join the prosthesis to the implants) are attached to the implants, serving as connectors for your new teeth. Custom-made replacement teeth are then affixed to these abutments, giving you durable and aesthetically pleasing results.
