Periodontal treatment is necessary when various conditions affect the health of your gums and the regions of your jawbone that hold your teeth in place.
Can’t eat and talk properly or smile confidently due to missing teeth? You are not alone.
With over 69% of adults from 35 to 44 having lost at least one tooth and 26% losing all their permanent teeth by age 74, many periodontists in Burlington offer various tooth restoration treatments.
But at Periodontal Associates, we’re determined to restore smiles permanently with dental implants. Discover the lifelong benefits of new teeth that look and function just like natural teeth.
Dental implants are the most advanced and only permanent treatment for replacing missing teeth lost to accidents, oral health complications, and aging.
Consisting of a titanium post, the implant is placed in the jawbone to function as the replacement root for missing teeth. Once securely in place, a dental implant allows your periodontist to attach new dental crowns (replacement teeth). Now, you can eat, talk, laugh, and more with new teeth that look, feel, and function like natural ones.
Dental implants are the only lifelong tooth replacement treatment that restores your complete, healthy smile. But it takes the right specialist to enjoy these benefits. See how the most experienced periodontist restores your healthy smile.
Your dentist provides general dental care. A periodontist is a specialist dentist who treats conditions that affect the gums, tissues, and bones surrounding teeth, such as gingivitis, gum disease, periodontitis, and oral inflammation.
Through their three-year university post-graduate specialty, periodontists are fully equipped to perform dental implant procedures, the most advanced tooth replacement treatment. Periodontists are licensed by the Royal College of Dentists of Canada as specialists in Periodontology.
Regain your ability to eat, talk, and smile in just five steps. See how our periodontists in Burlington can replace missing teeth and restore full oral function with dental implants.
Your periodontist will conduct a full dental exam, take x-rays and 3D imaging, and walk through your full medical and dental history to determine if you are a good candidate for dental implants. You’ll get a personalized treatment plan based on the number and location of missing teeth and explore anesthesia options. You may also be prescribed antibiotics for any infection.
Your periodontist will assess the strength of your jawbone and recommend a bone graft if it has deteriorated. This ensures your jawbone is strong enough to fuse with the dental implant. They will also remove damaged teeth and roots.
Once the jawbone heals, you’re ready for the dental implant. Using an incision along the gum line, your periodontist will drill holes to place the titanium posts. Once implanted, these will be the new roots of replacement teeth. You may wear a temporary partial denture to cover the gap while the jawbone fuses with the implant.
Over the next few months, osseointegration—the process of jawbone healing and fusing with the implant—occurs. Once fused, the implant provides a solid base that will anchor your replacement teeth in place. Then, your periodontist will place an abutment that attaches the new tooth to the implant.
When your gums heal, your periodontist will place the new dental crown or your replacement teeth. With dental implants anchoring them in place, your new teeth will look and function like natural teeth.
With their ability to support new, permanent teeth that look and function like natural ones, dental implants offer an unparalleled quality of life. Everyone deserves a full, healthy smile, but to ensure that it’s possible, a periodontist needs to make sure that you’re a good candidate. See if dental implants are right for you:
A major consideration for receiving dental implants is having enough healthy tissue and bone. Your periodontist needs to confirm that these can support the dental implant and replacement teeth so that you can enjoy the lifelong benefits of a fully restored smile.
With their lifelong oral health, self-esteem, and overall quality of life benefits, dental implants are a smart investment. While this means they can range from $1,500 to $6,000 in Burlington, their actual cost depends on your specific dental care needs. Each dental implant can support several missing teeth at once, resulting in optimal value. Learn how the cost of dental implants is determined:
