At Downtown Dental Group in Winnipeg, we use dental implants to replace missing teeth.
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots. Typically made with titanium, the implant is placed into the jawbone and left to heal until it has fully integrated into the jaw.
Regardless of your needs, dental implants can be used to replace a single missing tooth or multiple teeth. In addition to improved appearance, there are many advantages of dental implants.
What are the advantages of dental implants?
Eliminates further bone loss
With dental implants, the bone in your jaw will be stimulated, allowing your body to maintain the bone in that area.
Similar function
Implants will act and feel like natural teeth. While eating, your implants will function similar to your other teeth, making the whole experience positive.
Gum disease
If you have lost teeth due to gum disease, dental implants can give you a second chance at healthy gums. After removing the damaged teeth, the affected area can improve. Regular checkups and proper homecare routines can help maintain the life of the implants.
