Understanding Dental Implants
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is placed into the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone over several months. This creates a strong, stable foundation for a replacement tooth (crown), bridge, or full-arch prosthesis.
Unlike dentures, implants do not slip or shift. Unlike bridges, they do not require grinding down neighbouring teeth. They also help maintain jawbone density, which naturally deteriorates after tooth loss.
Implant Services We Provide
- Single Tooth Implants — a standalone implant with a custom crown to replace one missing tooth
- Multiple Implants — replacing several teeth with individual implants or an implant-supported bridge
- Full-Arch Implants — a fixed set of teeth supported by 4-6 strategically placed implants
- Bone Grafting — building up the jawbone when there is insufficient bone to support an implant
- Implant-Supported Dentures — a removable denture that snaps onto implants for improved comfort and function
Who Is a Candidate for Implants?
Most adults with good general health can be candidates for dental implants. During your consultation, Dr. Cho will evaluate:
- Your overall oral health and gum condition
- The density and volume of your jawbone
- Your medical history and any medications
- Your goals and expectations
If bone grafting or other preparatory treatment is needed, Dr. Cho will include this in your personalised treatment plan.
