Airdrie Dental Implants

Dental implants are used to replace one or more missing teeth through the use of an artificial root made of titanium metal or ceramic. Made from surgical-grade materials, Dental Implants replace the missing root of your tooth. They are surgically placed into the jawbone, and after a short period of healing, they are fitted with a ceramic dental crown or bridge to complete the restoration.

Dental Implants are also recommended for patients with dentures in order to maximize the fit and comfort of a current denture when problems such as inadequate bone levels exist or irregular bone shape interferes with the function of the denture. Patients that experience pain and irritation from using denture adhesives are great candidates for implant-supported dentures.
