Dental Implants

Dental implants from your Oshawa dentist can restore your smile - and your confidence!

With excellent success rates and a host of other benefits, it is no surprise that dental implants have become one of the most sought after treatments by patients seeking the ultimate in tooth replacement.

Dr. Gold is not only an experienced dentist; he is a consummate professional who has expanded his skills to include the planning, placement, and follow-up of dental implants. In addition, his fellowship of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists is a testament to his skill and experience.

Restoration with quality dental implants

Tooth loss carries a number of consequences; from the immediate gap in the smile to the shifting of surrounding teeth to an increased risk of gum disease and bone loss. Historically, a dental bridge has been the standard treatment for patients who have lost one or a few teeth. The disadvantage of a dental bridge is that two teeth must be modified in order for the prosthetic to be placed. Dental implants, individual posts that replace missing roots, are a wonderful alternative to the dental bridge. Implants are not only fully functional, due to stabilization in the jawbone; but, their situation also saves us from having to alter natural tooth structure unnecessarily.

Edentulism, or the absence of any natural teeth, is a major problem in our society. Though associated with age, losing natural teeth may stem from numerous factors; such as injury, poor oral health, advanced gum disease, and more. Whatever the cause of tooth loss, there is no way to live a fully healthy and satisfying life without teeth. We are happy to restore function and a natural appearance with lifelike tooth replacements stabilized on the appropriate number of dental implants. There is no need to replace individual teeth one by one with multiple implants. Using a combination process, Dr. Gold can achieve denture stabilization with as few as four implants on the upper or lower arch, or both.

Are dental implants right for you?

If you have lost a single tooth or all of your natural teeth, there is the potential to restore a very high level of functionality and comfort with titanium dental implants. The necessary component we look for is adequate bone mass. During your consultation visit with Dr. Gold, we can perform CT and x-ray imaging to assess the quality and quantity of the jawbone to determine if dental implant treatment would achieve the long-term results you deserve.

Why get dental implants?

The standard for tooth replacement was forever raised by the development of dental implants. Reasons that patients and their dentists prefer this process include:
  • Dental implants lead to a more natural appearance. Implant posts are situated in the jawbone beneath the gums. Each implant is topped with a lifelike crown, bridge, or denture.
  • Retention of partial or full dentures is significantly enhanced when stabilized by a group of strategically placed dental implants. This eliminates the fear of dentures slipping, rubbing, or falling out during meals or conversation.
  • The health of jawbone tissue is supported by dental implants and their restorations. When a tooth is lost, the stimulation it and its root provided to the jawbone disappears. As a result, there is a marked decrease in bone density over time. Replacing roots, implants ensure the continual transfer of force necessary for bone regeneration.
  • As much as possible, we like to preserve natural tooth structure as this is optimal for oral health and function. As an alternative to the dental bridge, implant treatment does just that. Because the individual implant post is stabilized in the jawbone just like the natural tooth, there is no need to reduce two healthy teeth and crown them so that they can support the artificial tooth.
