Dental implants
Dental implants replace both the root and visible portion of a missing tooth, creating a stable, natural-looking restoration. At Altima College West Dental Centre, we take time to walk through your options, expected timelines, and what each stage involves so you can feel confident at every step.
When implants may be an option
- A single missing tooth
- Several missing teeth
- Teeth lost due to decay, fractures, or gum disease
- Desire for a stable, non-removable restoration
- Interest in preserving bone after tooth loss
What to expect
- Assessment of bone support, gums, and overall oral health
