Understanding the world of oral surgery and implants can feel overwhelming, but it represents a powerful step towards restoring your smile, health, and confidence. At SameDay Dental, we are your trusted partners throughout this journey, serving families across the GTA with compassionate and advanced dental care. Whether you need a routine extraction or a complete smile transformation, our team is here to provide clarity, comfort, and exceptional results. We believe informed patients feel more at ease, so let us walk you through what these transformative procedures involve.
Restoring Your Smile with Dental Implants
Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. A small titanium post is placed in the jawbone, acting as a new root. This creates a strong foundation for a custom made crown that looks, feels, and functions just like a natural tooth. They are a permanent solution that helps preserve jawbone health and maintain your facial structure.
For patients missing most or all of their teeth, we offer the remarkable All on 4 treatment. This innovative technique uses just four strategically placed implants to support a full arch of beautiful, non removable teeth. It provides incredible stability and allows you to eat, speak, and smile with renewed confidence, often in a single day.
Preparing for Success: Foundational Procedures
A successful implant requires a healthy foundation. Sometimes, preparatory procedures are needed. Bone grafting is a common procedure used to build up the jawbone if it lacks the necessary volume or density to support an implant. This ensures your new tooth will be secure for years to come.
Another procedure is crown lengthening. This is done to expose more of a tooth’s structure by gently reshaping the surrounding gum tissue. It can be a crucial step for placing a new crown or other restoration, ensuring a perfect and lasting fit.
Common Oral Surgery and Implants Procedures
Our skilled team performs a wide range of surgical procedures with a focus on your comfort. Tooth extractions are sometimes necessary to address severe decay, damage, or crowding. This includes the gentle removal of wisdom teeth, which can often become impacted or cause pain and shifting of other teeth. We utilize modern techniques to make the experience as smooth and painless as possible.
Saving Natural Teeth with Endodontic Care
Often, a tooth can be saved from extraction through endodontics. Root canal therapy is a highly effective procedure designed to treat infection inside a tooth’s pulp. Despite its reputation, a modern root canal is a pain relieving treatment. It removes the infected tissue, cleans the canal, and seals it to prevent future problems, saving your natural tooth and avoiding the need for an implant.
