Dental Implants in Camrose
Camrose Dental Implants
When a permanent solution is required to replace one or more teeth, dental implants are a recommended solution. Not only does a dental implant look like a natural tooth, it restores the full function of the missing tooth so you can eat, talk, and smile like yourself again.
What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is the combination of an artificial tooth and a metal post that replaces the root of the tooth. The post embeds into your jawbone, providing strength and support while the artificial tooth sits on top, filling the gap in your smile with a functional replacement that looks and feels natural.
How Long Does a Dental Implant Take?
The existing tooth or teeth may have to be fully removed before the dental implant is placed. Once the post is installed into the jawbone, it needs time to heal before the artificial tooth is placed on top. For these reasons, dental implants take several weeks from start to finish.
