Restorative Dentistry: Dental Implants

At Santé Family Dental, restorative dentistry is about more than fixing teeth—it’s about rebuilding function, supporting long-term health, and using materials that align with your overall wellness. Whether you need a small filling, a protective crown, or a full dental implant, every treatment is tailored to restore your smile safely and effectively.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental Implants from start (post) to end (crown, bridge or denture).

A dental implant is a comfortable and durable option for replacing a missing tooth or missing teeth. This alternative to a root canal is often used when a natural tooth is lost or is too far compromised to be saved. The dental implant is a post, either ceramic or titanium, that is placed into your jawbone to take the place of tooth roots. This implant then works to stabilize and stimulate bone growth around it.

The dental implant is a foundation on which a crown or bridge is placed. Like the foundation of a house, you want this base to be strong and sturdy. Dental implants fuse to the bone around them, creating a strong and healthy anchor to support your surface dental work. In the end, you have a secure, attractive and functional replacement for your lost tooth or teeth.

Traditionally dental implants were made of titanium, but now the use of ceramic implants offers a second more holistic alternative. An added bonus with a ceramic implant is that it can often be completed in one day. When your tooth is extracted and your implant is put in on the same day, you save both time and money.

Long-lasting Solution to Tooth Replacement

The natural implants will integrate with the jawbone with the dental implant procedure. The procedure will be a permanent solution for missing teeth. At Sante Family Dental, our team is highly experienced with dental implants and will go above and beyond in ensuring the procedure is being done with the highest level of quality and safety in mind. With other solutions such as removable dentures, they might need to be replaced from time to time. That’s why dental implants are the best solution if you’re looking for value for money.

Prevents Bone Loss

Not a lot of people know it but bone loss will be a result of tooth loss. That’s why we always recommend that patients are thinking about a replacement solution as soon as the extraction is done. Failure to replace the missing teeth could leave your mouth susceptible to fractures. With our dental implants, you get a permanent solution to tooth loss.

Easy to Care For

Dental implants are just like real teeth. There is no extra maintenance needed to keep your smile healthy. There is no need for applying adhesive or special cream as you would with dentures. Our doctors recommend brushing twice a day, flossing, regular dental visits, and that’s just it. You don’t need to do anything extraordinary to take care of the dental implants.

Feels and Functions Like Natural Teeth

This is one of the reasons why we recommend dental implants to our patients. There is a solid attachment of the implants to the jaw. Once you get used to the feeling, it won’t be long before you can’t notice the difference with natural teeth. It will be impossible for someone to distinguish implants from your natural teeth as it’s also infused with the gum tissue.
