If You Have Missing Teeth, This Restorative Option May Be For You
Missing teeth can have a significant impact on your quality of life – from difficulty chewing and speaking to feeling self-conscious about your smile. Fortunately, dental implants can offer a long-lasting, natural-looking solution for replacing missing teeth. This restoration option features a titanium screw that is surgically attached to your jawbone to act as the new “root” of your tooth. After it heals, a dental crown is attached and acts as your new artificial tooth. It looks and feels like your natural teeth! At ABN Family Dental, we are proud to offer dental implant surgery to help restore your smile and oral health.
Why Choose Us
Why Choose – Dental Implants in Aurora?
When patients get dental implants to replace a missing tooth or multiple teeth, they can experience an array of benefits.
Natural Look and Feel
Dental implants are designed to look, feel, and function just like natural teeth. Once placed and restored with a custom crown, no one will be able to tell you had a missing tooth.
Improved Comfort and Function
Because implants are securely anchored into your jawbone, they don’t shift or move like traditional dentures. Patients report being able to eat, speak, and smile more, knowing their teeth are stable.
Preserve Jawbone and Facial Structure
When you lose a tooth, the bone in that area can start to deteriorate over time. Dental implants stimulate bone growth and help maintain the natural shape of your face and jaw, preventing that sunken appearance that often accompanies tooth loss.
Protect Adjacent Teeth
Unlike dental bridges, which rely on neighbouring teeth for support, implants do not require altering healthy teeth, preserving the integrity of your natural smile.

Types of Implants
Different Types of Implants to Improve Oral Health and Well-Being
Dental implants come in various types, each designed to meet specific needs. The most common type is called an endosteal implant – typically made of titanium that is surgically attached to your jawbone and serves as a sturdy foundation for one or more prosthetic teeth. They require a healthy jawbone for successful placement and osseointegration, which is the process where the bone fuses with the implant. Mini dental implants are smaller in diameter than traditional implants and can be used in situations where there is limited bone density or space. They are often used to stabilize dentures or for single-tooth replacements.
