What do Dental Implants Look Like?

Dental implants are considered the most robust, most natural-looking alternative to your natural teeth. They anchor to your jawbone via biocompatible material, so no part of the anchor is visible. Sharing the same anchor as your natural teeth is what grants your implants their strength and reliability.

Implants support tooth-coloured porcelain crowns, which have the appearance and feel of natural teeth. For most patients, their implants are entirely invisible to the naked eye.

Will Dental Implants Last Forever?

Dental implants are considered a sturdy, secure alternative to natural teeth currently available. They are anchored to your jawbone via biocompatible material, granting them strength comparable to your natural teeth. Once your implant is installed, it will last for many, many years. The crown can last a very long time, too and can be cared for with the same routine maintenance as your natural teeth — regular brushing, flossing, and visits with your dentist. If your crown should become cracked or damaged, it can be easily replaced. Dental implant crowns screw on to the implant itself, so a compromised crown can be unscrewed and replaced by a replica, effectively restoring the restoration.

Which is Better, Dental Implants or Dentures?

There are benefits to both implants and dentures, depending on your needs and goals. If you’re missing teeth or preparing to have a tooth removed, Dr. Jifri will explain the available choices and help you determine the best course of action. Dental implants are considered a robust and stable alternative to natural teeth. They have a look and feel of natural teeth and require no special maintenance to last a very long time.

For patients with financial questions or concerns, Dr. Jifri offers various financing options and can talk you through each of them before you commit to any treatment. Her goal is to make sure you have access to the care you need.
