Oakville dental implants and dentures 

If you are missing a tooth, or even multiple teeth, there are several different ways Uptown Oakville Dentistry can help. Dental implants and dentures are great options, however it is important to discuss with your dentist in Oakville which option is best for you.   

Dental Implants

As an alternative to bridges or dentures, your Oakville dental specialist may suggest dental implants. Dr. Uzma would create the artificial root made of titanium. This root would be surgically implanted into your jawbone and attached to the artificial tooth. The titanium root will hold the tooth in place, allowing the tooth to look and feel like a natural tooth. 

Dentures

Dr. Uzma may suggest dentures as the best treatment plan if you have struggled with your oral health and have lost numerous teeth. There are two types of dentures – partial and complete. Partial dentures are best when multiple teeth need to be replaced and surrounding teeth are not strong enough to act as a bridge. These are removable and can be easily taken out for cleaning purposes. Complete dentures are required when all of your teeth have either been removed or need to be removed. Because there are no other teeth for them to connect to, complete dentures stay in place by suction. 

Whether needing dental implants or dentures in Oakville, Dr. Uzma can discuss the pros and cons of each with you to come up with a treatment plan that you are comfortable with.
