Dental Implant

Dental Fillings are used to replace missing tooth structure that has occurred as a result of consistent decay. Tooth Decay causes the tooth to become hollow. In that case, Dental Fillings help to close this gap and keep it from decaying further. If you have decay, it is crucial to get Fillings done as soon as possible because if the treatment is not completed at the earliest, the enamel (outer layer of the teeth) will begin to deteriorate, exposing the dentin (the hard part below the enamel).
However, if you skip this step and do not receive treatment on time, the infection will spread to the nerve, causing the tooth to become infected and necessitating a root canal procedure. You also run the danger of the infection spreading to a neighbouring tooth, putting it vulnerable to decay. Fillings have a strangely overblown reputation as painful, serious, or extremely negative, when in fact, the procedure is quite gentle. All thanks to the modern anaesthetics and techniques used by our Dentists at My Gentle Dentist.
At My Gentle Dentist, we use leading technology like Teeth Bonding to treat your Cavities. Tooth Bonding is a technique in which your Dentist will use a tooth-coloured resin material on one or more of your teeth to repair the damage.
Why Choose
Dental Implant

Dental implants are a revolutionary solution for replacing missing teeth, offering a range of benefits that go beyond aesthetics. Here’s why dental implants are the preferred choice for patients and dentists alike:
1. Natural Appearance
Dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function like your natural teeth. The crowns are custom-made to match the color, shape, and size of your existing teeth, ensuring a seamless and confident smile.
2. Enhanced Functionality
Unlike dentures, dental implants are securely anchored into your jawbone, providing stability and strength. This means you can eat, speak, and smile without worry, just as you would with natural teeth.
3. Long-Lasting Solution
With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. They are made from durable materials like titanium and porcelain, ensuring they withstand daily use without deterioration.
4. Prevents Bone Loss
When a tooth is lost, the jawbone in that area begins to deteriorate due to lack of stimulation. Dental implants mimic natural tooth roots, stimulating the jawbone and preserving its strength and structure.
5. Maintains Facial Structure
Missing teeth can lead to a sunken facial appearance over time as the jawbone deteriorates. Dental implants help maintain the natural shape of your face, preventing premature aging.
6. No Impact on Adjacent Teeth
Unlike traditional bridges, which rely on neighboring teeth for support, dental implants stand independently. This means your surrounding teeth remain untouched and healthy.
7. Improved Oral Health
Dental implants are easy to clean and maintain, just like your natural teeth. With proper hygiene practices, you can reduce the risk of gum disease and other oral health issues.
8. Boosts Confidence and Quality of Life
Dental implants restore your ability to smile, eat, and speak with confidence. They eliminate the discomfort and inconvenience often associated with dentures or missing teeth.
9. A Versatile Solution
Whether you’re missing one tooth, several teeth, or all your teeth, dental implants can be customized to meet your specific needs. They can support crowns, bridges, or even full-arch dentures.
10. Cost-Effective in the Long Run
While the initial cost of dental implants may be higher than other tooth replacement options, their longevity and durability make them a cost-effective investment over time.

FAQ's
Dental implants are titanium roots that are implanted into your jawbone beneath your gums. Once in place, they provide a solid foundation to have a crown placed on the implant. The replacement teeth will be made to match your natural teeth, which will your implants the appearance that they are your teeth. It would be very hard for anyone to ever notice your dental implants. Dental implants can also be used to hold a dental bridge or dentures in places. However, dental implants are not the right option for everyone.
My Gentle Dentist offers 3 main dental implant options:
Single and Multiple Dental Implants
Single and multiple implants are applied in two parts. A small titanium implant is inserted into the jaw bone to replace the missing root. This implant will then fuse with the jawbone, providing strength and durability, becoming the self-supporting foundation for the newly created tooth. It normally takes 3-6 months for the procedure. A crown or denture is then made to fit over the top to create the look and function of a natural tooth/ teeth. You May be a Candidate for these types of implants if you are missing one or more teeth in between healthy natural teeth.
All on 4 or All on 6 Dental Implants
All on 4 or All on 6 dental implants are designed as an alternative option for full teeth dentures. A customized denture is made in a specialized laboratory which will secure them to four or six dental implants. These can be applied to the top or bottom jaw line according to your individual needs if you are missing most or all of your teeth, this might be an option for you. All on 4 or All on six dental implants are a permanent solution, meaning they are more functional and secure than regular removable dentures. They look and feel more realistic too.
Modern dental implants work due to a process called Osseointegration. Osseointegration is an amazing process by which normal healthy bones form a direct interface with a dental implant ensuring an extremely strong long-term connection. This then gives the perfect platform for replacement teeth, dentures or another prosthesis.
When it comes to teeth replacement, generally, there are three options:
- Removable dental appliance (complete denture or partial denture)
- Fixed dental bridge (cemented)
- Dental implant.
Dentures are the more affordable option for replacing teeth but are the least desirable because of the inconvenience of a removable appliance in the mouth. Furthermore, dentures can affect one’s taste and sensory experience with food. The main disadvantage to bridgework is the dependence on existing natural teeth for support. This involves cutting normal teeth without symptoms to use them as pillars (abutments).
Here are the top 10 benefits of dental implants over other solutions:
- The closest possible replacement to natural teeth
- Ensures replacement teeth are stable for eating and smiling with confidence
- Eliminate the pain of ill-fitting partial and full dentures
- Help to maintain the shape of your face
- Remove the need to grind down healthy teeth for a bridge
- Help to preserve the bone in the jaw
- Improve appearance, comfort, speech and self-esteem
- Make it easier to eat
- Convenient
- Protect your remaining natural teeth
On the right is a quick comparison table to show you the differences at a glance:
By offering multiple options, My Gentle Dentist provides our patients with the opportunity to have individually personalised treatment specific to your needs. To find out which option is right for you we recommend coming in to see us. We will use our expertise and experience to consider the right fit for your needs. Your first assessment will consider everything from how many teeth you are missing to the high quality of your gums and jawbone, a design and treatment to get you smiling again.
Dental implants can range anywhere from $4,000 to $5,000 depending on a number of factors including your:
- Type of Dental coverage
- How many implants are needed
- Type of dental implant you choose, and
- Whether any bone graft is required for long term success of implants.
Dental implant treatment can take 3-6 months from start to end and follows a 3-step process:
- Your damage tooth is removed, and the implant is placed into the jaw before a screw is inserted to prevent debris from entering.
- Upon returning to your My Gentle Dentist, the implant is uncovered, and an extension called healing abutment is attached.
- Finally, a crown will be made to best suit your natural teeth, considering factors including size, shape and colour.
Once completed, the crown is attached to the implant post and you can enjoy your beautiful new smile!
Dental implant recovery depends on a number of factors, one of which includes the various procedures required to complete your treatment.
However, it is generally recognized that once an implant has been placed, maintaining diligent oral hygiene habits helps ensure proper integration with bone structure. Failure to floss and brush can contribute to failure of the treatment. Infection can occur if the implant and surrounding areas are not cleaned properly. You must see your dentist every 6 months for your regular check-up and clean following completion of Dental Implant Procedure. Smoking also is attributed to high failure rates and should be avoided following implant procedures. If provisional restorations were placed along with the implant(s), it will be important to clean them as you would your natural teeth to ensure the best possible healing and fusing.
After the initial surgical procedure, discomfort should be minimal.
Swelling of your gums and face may occur, as well as minor bleeding and bruising of the implant site. Prescription pain medications may be prescribed by your Dentist to relieve any pain or discomfort you feel after the procedure. For a few days after surgery, your diet should be restricted to soft foods. If stitches are present, they may need to be removed by your Dentist; however, self-dissolving stitches that do not require removal are typically used. My Gentle Dentist will advise you of any specific care that needs to be taken for stitches if necessary. Healing from the surgical procedure to place the implant(s) takes up to 3-6 months, while the fitting and seating of the crown(s) can take up to 1 month. My Gentle Dentist will provide all necessary information specific to your situation well in advance.
Again, this timeframe depends on individual cases and treatments. Follow-up appointments with your treatment coordinators are essential for monitoring your progress. If cared for properly, it can remain in place for a very long time.
All specifications available in your case will be discussed, as well as all the associated costs.
