At Bay Street Dental Associates, implant surgery can be done with sedation or sleep dentistry, so nervous patients can be comfortable throughout.
Who implants are for
Implants can replace one tooth, several teeth, or support a bridge or denture. An exam and x-rays show whether the bone and gums can support an implant.
The steps
- Consultation, x-rays and a treatment plan
- Placement of the implant post, with sedation if you prefer
- Healing while the implant bonds with the bone
- A custom crown, bridge or denture attached to the implant
Caring for an implant
Brush and floss around an implant like a natural tooth and keep up regular cleanings and check-ups.
