Rebuild Your Smile with Dental Implants at Simply Wellness Dental in Burnaby
When you smile, it should be with confidence and ease. However, if you’re missing a tooth (or several), that simple act can become daunting. Missing teeth can affect everything from how you feel about yourself to how you chew your food. But the good news is, dental technology has evolved tremendously, and there’s a solution that can completely restore both function and aesthetics to your smile: dental implants.
At Simply Wellness Dental in Burnaby, BC, we offer top-tier dental implant services that help patients reclaim their smiles and improve their quality of life. Whether you’re dealing with a single missing tooth or multiple teeth, dental implants can provide a permanent, natural-looking solution.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of biocompatible titanium, which are surgically placed into the jawbone. Once the implant has fused with the bone (a process known as osseointegration), it provides a solid foundation for a replacement tooth or teeth, typically in the form of a custom-crafted crown.
Implants are unique because they mimic the function of your natural tooth roots, allowing the replacement tooth to feel and perform like a real tooth. Whether you’ve lost a tooth due to injury, decay, or age, dental implants offer a long-lasting solution that looks and feels just like your own teeth.
If you’re searching for expert dental implants in Burnaby, Simply Wellness Dental provides state-of-the-art treatment with personalized care to ensure your smile is fully restored.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
Dental implants are widely regarded as the best solution for missing teeth due to several benefits:
1. Restored Functionality
Unlike dentures, which can sometimes slip or shift, dental implants are securely anchored into the jawbone. This stability allows you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. Implants give you the freedom to enjoy your favorite foods without worrying about discomfort or awkward moments.
2. A Natural Look and Feel
At Simply Wellness Dental, our implants are designed to look just like your natural teeth. Our expert team, led by Dr. Vik Sharma, ensures that your replacement tooth matches the color, shape, and size of your surrounding teeth. Once the procedure is complete, no one will even be able to tell that you’ve had dental work done!
3. Longevity
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. Unlike bridges or dentures that may need to be replaced after several years, dental implants are a permanent solution that can provide decades of service when maintained correctly.
4. Prevents Bone Loss
When a tooth is lost, the underlying jawbone can begin to deteriorate due to a lack of stimulation. Dental implants act as a substitute for your tooth root, providing the necessary pressure and stimulation to prevent bone loss and preserve the integrity of your facial structure.
5. Improved Oral Health
Unlike traditional bridges that require grinding down adjacent teeth, dental implants are placed directly into the jawbone, leaving surrounding teeth intact. This means you’ll enjoy better overall oral health since the health of your natural teeth is preserved.
The Dental Implant Process at Simply Wellness Dental
At Simply Wellness Dental, we understand that undergoing dental implant surgery can seem intimidating, which is why our team prioritizes patient comfort, education, and care throughout the entire process. Here’s a step-by-step overview of what you can expect:
1. Initial Consultation
The first step in your dental implant journey is an in-depth consultation with Dr. Vik Sharma. During this appointment, we’ll evaluate your oral health, take detailed images, and determine whether dental implants are the best option for you. We’ll also answer any questions you may have and create a personalized treatment plan.
2. Implant Placement
Once the treatment plan is finalized, the next step is the surgical placement of the implant. This is a minor procedure performed in our Burnaby office under local anesthesia. The titanium implant post is placed into the jawbone, where it will begin to fuse with the bone over the next several months.
3. Healing Period
After the implant has been placed, the osseointegration process begins. This allows the implant to bond with your jawbone, creating a stable foundation for the replacement tooth. During this healing period, we’ll provide you with temporary teeth so you can maintain your normal routine.
4. Crown Placement
Once the implant has fully integrated with your jawbone, we’ll attach a custom-made crown that fits perfectly with your existing teeth. This final step completes your smile restoration, allowing you to enjoy the look, feel, and function of a natural tooth.
5. Aftercare and Maintenance
Caring for your dental implants is simple. With regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings at Simply Wellness Dental, your dental implants can last a lifetime. Routine check-ups will ensure your new smile stays healthy and beautiful.
