A game-changing way to replace missing teeth
Dental implants are a longer-lasting, sturdier, more comfortable tooth replacement option compared to removable dentures or dental bridges. During the procedure, a small titanium screw is embedded into the jawbone. It fuses with the bone and acts as the tooth’s root, providing a secure anchor for a lifelike restoration. Dental implants look extremely natural and allow you to bite, chew, speak, laugh and smile with confidence.
Our Kelowna dental implant options
Single dental implants
If you lost a tooth due to injury, gum disease or decay, the dentists at Burtch Dental can replace it with a single implant. When the dental implant is placed in the jawbone, bone cells attach to its surface, fusing it with the jaw over the course of several months. Once this happens, your dentist will design a custom dental crown and attach it to the implant.
Multiple dental implants
If you have several missing teeth, our dentists can replace each individual tooth with a dental implant. Or, if the teeth are in a row, they can place two dental implants to support a bridge with three or more replacement teeth. Depending on the situation, implant-supported dentures could also be a good choice.
