Missing Teeth Can Make Life Difficult. We Can Help.

If you have missing teeth, you know how much it can impact your daily life. You may feel self-conscious about talking or smiling, and missing teeth can limit the foods you can eat, putting your nutrition (and enjoyment) at risk.

Missing teeth may also lead to bone loss and a shift in your remaining teeth, impacting your bite and oral function.

At Doreen Dental Clinic, we offer dental implants as an option to replace your teeth and restore your smile, including all-on-x to replace your entire smile with natural-looking implant-retained teeth in a single appointment.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants have a number of benefits that many of our patients love.

Long-term solution to tooth loss
Single-tooth implants look and feel natural
Implants can replace multiple missing teeth
Dental implant treatment is easier and more reliable than ever
Proven high success rate
Dental implants may help slow or prevent bone loss

How Do Dental Implants Work?

couple with dental implants in doreen vic Dental implants are designed to replace the entire tooth rather than only the visible portion of the tooth, making them the most lifelike tooth replacement option. Dental implants consist of three main parts:

Dental implant screw (replaces the tooth root)
Implant abutment attachment (to attach the crown, bridge or denture)
Replacement tooth (crown) or arch of teeth

Dental implants are surgically placed in the jawbone and will naturally fuse with the bone in a process called osseointegration. This is what gives dental implants their celebrated stability. After healing, your dentist will attach your new tooth or teeth to your dental implant, giving you a stable, reliable smile.

*All surgical procedures carry potential risks and complications. Your dentist will discuss these with you in detail before your treatment and answer any questions you may have.

What Is All-on-X?

If you have diseased, decayed or missing teeth and need a full-mouth tooth-replacement option, All-on-X could be the answer for you. Using strategically-placed dental implants (usually 4-6 per arch), we design a natural-looking and functional low-profile denture to replace your entire smile. Since they are secured with dental implants, you can count on stability and function.

You can learn more on our all-on-x treatment page.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the advantages of dental implants compared to other tooth replacement options like dentures or bridges?

Dental implants in Doreen are the closest you can get to a natural tooth. Unlike bridges or dentures, dental implants replace your root and tooth, offering several advantages that the other options do not. Here's what you should know.

How Do Dental Implants Work?

The implant is carefully placed into your jawbone during a simple surgical procedure, where its biocompatible material slowly fuses and integrates with your bone, taking the place of your root. This process, known as osseointegration, typically takes between three to six months.

Once the implant is integrated with your bone, an abutment connects it to its restoration. We use a custom porcelain crown to replace a single tooth. Two to six dental implants can also support a bridge or denture to replace multiple missing teeth.

What Are the Benefits of Dental Implants?

Replacing your root also protects your jawbone from the deterioration that occurs with tooth loss. Here are some other benefits dental implants offer:

Natural feel and look — Implants offer exceptional aesthetics and feel like a natural tooth.
Excellent longevity — Implants have the potential to last a lifetime with the right care at home and routine dental check-ups.
High success rate — Dental implants boast a 90 per cent success rate.
Wise smile investment — Because of their exceptional longevity, dental implants are a wise investment for many patients.

I have missing teeth: can you help?

Missing teeth can pose a number of problems in daily life from gaps in the smile and trouble speaking and eating to discomfort.

Missing teeth also pose some issues when it comes to your dentistry and oral health, such as:

Shifting teeth
Bite misalignment
Exposed roots
Bone loss

For these reasons, we offer several tooth replacement options for people with missing teeth.

Dental Implants: A Permanent Solution for Missing Teeth

If you have a single missing tooth, or a few missing teeth, dental implants offer a practical and long-term solution to replace missing teeth in a convenient and life-like manner.

Dental implants can also attach dentures and bridges to replace multiple missing teeth simultaneously.

All-on-X / T24

For those who have lost most or all of their teeth, our All-on-X / T24 treatment is a solution. Using a few strategically placed dental implants, we can secure a full arch of teeth. Say goodbye to shifting and uncomfortable traditional dentures and hello to a stable, reliable smile.

Non-Surgical Dental Bridges

If you need a non-surgical option for missing teeth, dental bridges are an option. Anchored to two healthy, adjacent teeth, dental bridges can fill the gap in your smile.

Find Your Ideal Tooth Replacement Option at Doreen Dental Clinic

If you want solutions to missing teeth, we welcome your call at Doreen Dental Clinic. Our skilled dentists will present all of your treatment options, so you can make a choice that makes sense for you.

What is the main difference between all-on-4 and traditional dental implants?

The main difference between all-on-4/all-on-x and traditional dental implants lies in the number of dental implants used and how they support replacement teeth.

Traditional Dental Implants

Traditional dental implants typically involve placing a separate implant for each missing tooth or several implants to support a dental bridge or denture. This approach often requires a greater number of dental implants and, in some cases, bone grafting to ensure enough jawbone support. While incredibly stable and long-lasting, traditional implants may involve a longer treatment and healing time.

All-on-4/All-on-X

On the other hand, All-on-4 dental implants use just four specifically placed implant posts to support a full arch of teeth, either on the upper or lower jaw. Thanks to the angled placement of the dental implants, All-on-4 often avoids the need for bone grafting and offers faster recovery.
