Why Choose Dental Implants?

Dental implants are the preferred method for tooth replacement, offering significant benefits over traditional bridges or dentures:

  • Long-lasting: Implants fuse with your jawbone, creating a permanent solution that, with proper care, can last a very long time.
  • Natural Look and Feel: Dental implants look and function like natural teeth, enhancing your smile and boosting your confidence.
  • Improved Oral Health: Dental implants prevent bone loss and maintain the jaw structure, promoting overall oral health.
  • Stable and Secure: Unlike dentures, implants won’t slip or click, allowing you to eat and speak freely.
  • Conservative: Dental implants do not harm neighboring healthy teeth like traditional bridges.

Benefits of Dental Implants

  • Enjoy your favorite foods again: Dental implants restore your chewing ability for a wider variety of dietary options.
  • Speak clearly and confidently: Implants won’t hinder your speech, allowing clear and worry-free communication.
  • Boost your self-esteem: Smile with confidence, knowing your dental implants look and feel natural.
  • Promote long-term oral health: Implants prevent bone loss and adjacent tooth movement, contributing to lasting oral health.

Dental Implant Options Tailored to Your Needs

Our consultation process allows Dr. Chan to assess your specific situation and recommend the ideal implant option for you. We offer various implant solutions, including:

  • Same-day implants: In some cases, qualified patients may benefit from same-day implants, allowing for placement and a temporary crown in a single visit.
  • Emergency Dental Implants: If you experience sudden tooth loss due to trauma, Dr. Chan can determine if immediate implant placement is possible.
  • Single Tooth Replacement: A single implant with a custom crown is the ideal solution for replacing a missing tooth, providing a natural-looking and stable replacement.
  • Replacing Multiple Missing Teeth: We offer various implant-supported options for replacing multiple missing teeth, such as implant-supported bridges or individual implants with crowns.
  • Implant-Supported Dentures: For patients missing all their teeth in an arch, implant-supported dentures offer a secure and comfortable solution.
  • All-on-4® or Full Arch Implants: This technique uses dental implants to support a complete restoration of your entire upper or lower jaw.
