Facing a dental procedure can feel overwhelming, but understanding your options is the first step toward a healthier smile. At SameDay Dental, we specialize in advanced Oral Surgery and Implants, providing patients across the GTA with compassionate, state of the art care. Whether you need a permanent solution for a missing tooth or require a specific procedure, our dedicated team is here to guide you with expertise and reassurance.

Understanding Dental Implants and Your Options

Dental implants are the modern standard for replacing missing teeth. A small titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as a new root for a custom made crown. This creates a durable and natural looking replacement that functions like a real tooth and can last a lifetime. Implants also help preserve your jawbone structure and will not slip like dentures.

For patients missing many teeth, we offer solutions like the All on Four treatment concept, which uses four implants to support a full arch of permanent teeth. We also perform bone grafting, a safe procedure to build up the jawbone if it lacks the volume to support an implant, ensuring a strong foundation for your new smile.

Common Procedures for Oral Surgery and Implants

Our oral surgery services address many dental health needs. A tooth extraction is sometimes necessary to remove a severely damaged or decayed tooth to protect your overall oral health. We perform both simple and surgical extractions with a focus on your comfort.

Wisdom teeth removal is another very common procedure. Many people lack room for these molars, which can lead to pain, infection, or damage to adjacent teeth. We also offer crown lengthening, a procedure that reshapes gum and bone tissue to expose more of a tooth’s surface, often to prepare for a restorative crown.

Saving Your Natural Teeth with Endodontics

Whenever possible, our goal is to save your natural teeth. This is where endodontics, the specialty focused on the tooth’s soft inner tissue, is so important. A root canal is a common endodontic treatment to save a tooth that is infected or inflamed. We carefully remove the damaged pulp, clean the inside of the tooth, and seal it. A modern root canal is a comfortable procedure that relieves pain and lets you keep your natural tooth.
