Dental Implants Near You

What are dental implants?
Dental implants in St. Albert can replace and support artificial replacement teeth for a comfortable and natural-looking restoration. The artificial roots are made from titanium metal and are inserted into your jawbone by our dentist. Attached to the implant, is an artificial replacement tooth. The dental implant itself serves as an anchor to secure the replacement tooth in place.

Am I a Candidate For Dental Implants Treatment?
At Dentus Family Dental we offer dental implants. Patients interested in this restoration procedure will need to schedule a consultation to determine if they qualify. You may be a candidate for dental implants if you:
- Have good overall health
- Have healthy gums
- Have adequate bone in your jaw
The Procedure for Dental Implants
After your consultation, you will schedule your first appointment. During this appointment, our dentist will begin with an examination of your mouth and conduct X-rays. The first phase of surgery will include, placing the dental implant into your jawbone and stitching the gum tissue. Over the course of several months, your implant will fuse with your bone and attach to the gum through a process called osseointegration.
Once the implant and tissue have fused, our dentist will attach an abutment (a post) to the implant. This joins the replacement tooth to the implant. An artificial replacement tooth will be fabricated and attached to the abutment. Our dentist will assess it carefully to ensure a proper fit.
