Take a Closer Look  at the Implant Placement Process

Smile Montreal uses high-quality dental implants made from titanium or zirconia. Once they fuse with your jawbone, we will secure a custom-made dental prosthetic to restore your smile. 

Advanced Technology for Superior Implant Dentistry

Our Montreal office utilizes the most up-to-date dental implant techniques and materials available. We are one of the few practices in Canada currently using the cutting-edge i-CAT® system to analyze and pinpoint the optimal locations in the jaw for implants. The i-CAT® system is similar to a regular CAT scan, although it produces detailed oral diagnostics without subjecting patients to uncomfortable conditions. The implant procedure at Smile Montreal is more precise and less invasive for the patient, increasing the long-term success of treatment.

We also work with nSequence® labs, the leader in surgical guides for implant dentistry, to precisely plan and perform your treatment with your unique final restoration in mind. These dental restorations—porcelain crowns, dental bridges, or implant-supported dentures—are crafted with the highest quality materials that look virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth.

A Long-Lasting Investment in Your Smile

The upfront cost of dental implants is typically higher than that of other tooth replacement options. However, because they are more durable and long-lasting than alternative treatments, implants are well worth the investment. Although your restorations will likely need to be replaced over the years, dental implants will typically last the rest of your life with proper care. You will simply need to brush, floss, and use mouthwash daily, just as you would for your natural teeth. 

It is important to attend regular checkups and cleanings following implant treatment. While your restorations will not be subject to decay, gum disease could eventually cause the metal posts to become exposed. Continuing to practice good oral care can ensure healthy, beautiful results for years to come. 

Worried You Don't Qualify For Traditional Implants? Consider All-on-4 Treatment 

Long-term tooth loss can unfortunately cause jawbone recession, which disqualifies some patients from standard dental implant treatment. While you can undergo bone grafting to supplement your jaw tissue, you may want to consider an alternative dental implant treatment known as All-on-4®.

The All-on-4 technique uses just four implant posts to secure a full denture. Rather than place the implants straight into the jaw, we insert them at strategic angles to maximize contact with the bone tissue. This ensures the same stability for an All-on-4 denture as any traditional implant-supported restoration. If you are missing most or all of your teeth and want to learn more about All-on-4, please call or contact our Montreal, QC, office online to request a consultation.

What to Expect During Your Treatment

Implant Preparation

During an initial consultation, we will develop a personalized treatment plan to decide which restorations are a good fit for your missing tooth or teeth. Your dentist will take dental X-rays to check whether your jawbone can support implants or if you need additional treatments to prepare for surgery. Dr. Casey may need to extract a damaged tooth or perform a bone graft.

Anesthetic

We will provide you with a local anesthetic to numb the area before the actual procedure. If you are still anxious about your dental work, we can offer sedation dentistry to ensure maximum comfort. These techniques include oral conscious sedation and intravenous sedation, which induce a relaxed state while you undergo the procedure.

Placing Implants and Recovery

Once the anesthesia takes effect, your dentist will place small titanium or zirconia posts in your jawbone. In the next four to six months after surgery, the implants will fuse with your jawbone through a process called osseointegration. In the meantime, we will provide you with a temporary restoration.

Abutments and Dental Impressions

After you have healed, we connect prosthetic components called abutments to the titanium or zirconia dental implants. These abutments allow your dentist to attach the restoration to the implants later. Your dentist will then take impressions and scan your mouth using our innovative E4D electronic imaging technology. These virtual scans provide a precise map of your teeth and bite to send to our trusted nSequence® Lab for a beautifully constructed restoration.

Securing Restorations

When your custom restoration is complete, we will schedule an appointment to have it fit. The dental prosthetic will be secured to the abutments, and any last-minute alterations will be made to ensure your comfort and oral function. Maintenance for dental implants is significantly easier and more convenient than alternative restorative options like removable dentures. The implants can last for life and the restorations are incredibly stable, so they will look and act like your natural teeth.

Recovering From Dental Implant Surgery

Here are a few tips to help you during the recovery process following dental implant placement. 

Take Medication as Directed

Your dentist may recommend over-the-counter pain medicines or prescribe you medication. Take these medications as directed. 

Use Ice

Use ice packs on your cheeks and jaw for about 20 to 30 minutes at a time to reduce pain and inflammation. 

Eat a Soft Diet

For the first few days following implant placement, eat a soft diet. This will reduce irritation to the implant site and allow it to heal properly. 

Keep Your Head Elevated

For the first few days after your implant surgery, your dentist may suggest keeping your head elevated even when you sleep. This will help reduce pain and swelling. 

If at any time you have questions about your recovery, or if you have concerning symptoms such as excessive swelling, bleeding, or pain that is not easily managed, please give us a call at (514) 937-6558.

Alternatives to Dental Implants

Partial denture in gloved hand

Dental implants may not always be the best option for a patient. When it comes to tooth replacement, there are typically three options: a removable dental appliance, such as a complete denture or partial denture; a dental bridge; or dental implants. Dentures are removable and secured in place with the aid of an adhesive, and traditional bridges require a healthy adjacent tooth or teeth for support. However, while dentures and bridges are typically less expensive, most patients find dental implants to be worth the investment for their added convenience, durability, and natural-looking results.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implants

How Long Will My Implants Last?

The implants and abutments are designed to last a lifetime with proper care and maintenance. Your dental crown, dental bridge, or denture can last for about 15 years or more with the right care. However, it is important to remember the restoration will wear over time and will eventually need to be replaced. 

Does Implant Placement Hurt?

No. The area will be completely numbed before the procedure begins. We also offer sedation for patients who feel anxious or have trouble sitting still. Mild discomfort following placement is to be expected, but it is usually managed easily at home using over-the-counter pain medications or medication prescribed by your dentist.
