What are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are custom-made replacement teeth with a crown and screw-like extension. They are fused to the jawbone to replace a missing tooth as tooth replacement. Crowns mimic the natural properties of your teeth. In today's digital age, you don't need to run around searching for local dentists. You can search "dental implants near me" online to find the best clinics specialized in dental implant procedures. Toronto Smile Design stands out from the crowd due to its innovative digital dentistry approaches. Your dentist can replace a single tooth or several missing teeth using the best dental implants in Toronto.
Here are a few frequently asked questions about dental implants for your consideration:
Are dental implants painful?
NO, THEY ARE NOT! The dental implant procedure doesn't cause any pain. It is also rare for patients to experience pain after implant surgery. To be on the safe side, choose the best Toronto dentist with expertise in dental implants.
How long do dental implants last?
The lifespan of dental implants is influenced by several factors, including oral hygiene and habits. For example, smoking can reduce the implant's lifespan. But dental implants last longer than other alternatives like removable dentures. Over 98% of implants have a survival rate of ten years, with proper oral hygiene. The best Toronto dental implants can last you more than ten years.
Steps of the Dental Implant Procedure
In 1952, Swedish orthopedic surgeon Per-Ingvar Branemark invented dental implants. The dental implant procedure has evolved over the years. Here are the five steps of the process:
Step 1: Consultation. In this first appointment, your Toronto dentist will use Panoramic Radiographs and CBCT for diagnosis. They'll also take videos, pictures, and impressions of your mouth to determine and also collect information about general health whether you're a good candidate for a dental implant.
Step 2: Presentation of the Treatment Plan. The second step focuses on crafting the best treatment plan to guarantee your satisfaction. Toronto Smile Design Clinic uses state-of-the-art Digital Smile Design to ensure your dental implant mimics the natural properties of your teeth. Your dentist will recommend the best dental implants in Toronto based on the condition of your jawbone.
Step 3: Placement of Implants. In this step, your dentist replaces part of your tooth's root with a dental implant using surgical procedures. If you're replacing damaged teeth, your dentist will remove them and wait until gum tissue, soft tissue and bone tissue heal before placing the implant. Sometimes, in this step, patients' may need a bone graft. If needed, bone augmentation procedures provided in dental implant surgery. You can wait for up to 4 months for osseointegration to take place. The osseointegration period allows the bone to heal and attain structural and functional integrity. Your dentist can also place the implant instantly if you don't have to wait for osseointegration.
Step 4: Prosthodontics Phase. Your dentist can attach the implant with crown, bridges, or special prosthodontic appliances. The crown is placed on the replacement root to restore the function of the lost tooth and allow you to speak and chew without any issues.

How much are dental implants in Canada?
The average cost of dental implants in Canada is around $1800-$2500 per tooth, including the implant material fee. But the price doesn't include the prosthodontics part of the treatment. So, dental implant costs for one tooth can vary in Toronto and Ontario, depending on the procedure.
Are dental implants covered by insurance?
It depends on your insurance. Specific insurance policies with cosmetic dental procedure coverage can cover half of the dental implant costs. However, basic health insurance policies don't cover dental implant procedures.
