Replace the whole tooth, root included.
Toothport Dental Centre places dental implants for patients missing one or more teeth. An implant replaces the tooth root with a titanium post and is topped with a custom crown once healing is complete.
- Replaces a missing tooth root and all, not just the crown
- Does not rely on neighbouring teeth for support
- Healing and integration period runs several months
- Nitrous oxide available for anxious patients
- CDCP and most insurance accepted
What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is a titanium post placed in the jawbone to act as an artificial tooth root, topped with a custom crown once healing is complete. Unlike a bridge, it does not rely on the neighbouring teeth for support.
Who is a candidate for dental implants?
Candidates are generally missing one or more teeth, have healthy gums with no active gum disease, and have enough jawbone to support an implant. Your dentist will assess this at a consultation.
- Missing one or more teeth
- Healthy gums with no active gum disease
- Enough jawbone to support an implant
- General health that supports minor surgery
What does the dental implant process involve?
Treatment starts with a consultation. The post is placed under local anesthesia, followed by a healing period while the bone integrates around it, then a custom crown completes the restoration.
- Consultation and treatment planning
- Placement of the implant under local anesthesia
- Healing period while the bone integrates with the implant
- Custom crown fitted to complete the restoration
How much do dental implants cost?
Cost depends on how many teeth are involved and whether bone grafting is needed first. Toothport sends a pre-determination (benefit verification) and an estimate before treatment is scheduled.
What does recovery look like?
Most patients have mild swelling for a few days after placement. The healing period before the final crown typically runs several months and is timed individually by your dentist.
