Dental Implants
Prevent bone loss and shifting teeth with reliable, permanent dental implants.
Missing teeth can affect much more than your smile. They can change the way you chew, speak, and even how confident you feel in everyday life. Over time, gaps in your teeth can also cause surrounding teeth to shift, affect your bite, and contribute to changes in jawbone structure.
Dental implants offer a long-term, highly reliable solution designed to restore both function and appearance. They replace missing teeth in a way that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth, helping you get back to eating, speaking, and smiling with confidence.
At Beacon Hill Dental, we take a personalized and supportive approach to implant care, guiding you through every step so you feel informed, comfortable, and confident in your treatment plan.
How Dental Implants Work
A dental implant replaces both the root and the visible portion of a missing tooth.
- A small titanium post is placed into the jawbone, acting as an artificial tooth root
- Over time, the implant integrates with the bone, creating a strong and stable foundation
- A custom-made crown is then attached to restore the visible tooth
The result is a replacement tooth that blends naturally with your smile and functions just like a real tooth.
Single-Tooth Dental Implants
A single-tooth implant is used when one tooth is missing. It is one of the most effective ways to replace a tooth without affecting the surrounding healthy teeth.
Benefits of a single-tooth implant:
- Replaces a missing tooth without altering adjacent teeth
- Restores full chewing ability and bite strength
- Looks and feels like a natural tooth
- Helps prevent bone loss in the jaw
- Maintains natural spacing and alignment of surrounding teeth
Many patients find that once the implant is complete, it becomes indistinguishable from their natural teeth in both look and function.
Secure Solutions for Multiple Missing Teeth
Implant-Supported Bridges
When multiple teeth in a row are missing, an implant-supported bridge may be recommended. Instead of relying on natural teeth for support, the bridge is anchored to dental implants for added stability and longevity.
Benefits of an implant-supported bridge:
- Replaces several missing teeth with a secure, fixed solution
- Does not require grinding down healthy neighbouring teeth
- Provides strong, stable chewing function
- Helps preserve jawbone health in the areas where teeth are missing
- Offers a natural-looking and seamless smile restoration
This option is especially helpful when multiple teeth are missing but you want a fixed, long-term solution rather than removable dentures.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants are considered one of the most advanced and long-lasting solutions for tooth replacement. They offer both functional and aesthetic benefits, including:
Many patients describe implants as feeling like they “have their own teeth back,” with the confidence to eat, laugh, and speak without hesitation.
