Dental implants
Missing a tooth can change how you chew, speak, and even how confidently you smile. Dental implants offer a stable, long-term replacement that feels close to natural teeth. They are anchored securely in the jawbone, supporting everyday function while helping maintain bone structure over time.
At Altima Scotia Plaza Dental Centre, we take a clear, step-by-step approach so you always know what to expect. From your first consultation through final restoration, we focus on comfort, communication, and predictable outcomes.
A straightforward, supportive process
- Treatment begins with an exam and digital imaging to confirm whether an implant is a good option
- If the jawbone is strong enough to support an implant, we plan the treatment sequence together and explain the timeline in plain language
- When the titanium post is placed, it is positioned carefully to support proper healing and integration with the bone
Healing and restoration
During the healing phase, the bone and implant fuse gradually, creating a stable foundation. Once fully integrated, a custom crown is designed to match your existing teeth in shape, colour, and function. The goal is a replacement tooth that feels natural in your bite and integrates smoothly into your daily life.
Why patients choose implants
Implants:
- Stay fixed in place
- Do not rely on neighbouring teeth for support
- Help maintain jawbone density
- Often provide long-term comfort and natural-feeling function
We guide you through each stage — planning, placement, healing, and follow-up — so the process feels calm, predictable, and easy to move through at your own pace.
