Missing teeth don’t have to be permanent. Dental implants are the gold standard for tooth replacement, providing a permanent solution that looks, feels, and functions like your natural teeth. At St. Lawrence Dentistry in Mississauga, we place and restore dental implants using the latest techniques and technology. Implants restore your ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
Why Choose Dental Implants
Unlike bridges or dentures, implants are independent restorations that don’t rely on adjacent teeth. They’re the closest thing to natural teeth and can last a lifetime with proper care.

Looks and Functions Like Your Natural Tooth
An implant consists of a titanium post surgically placed in your jawbone and a custom crown attached on top. The result is a tooth that looks and functions completely natural.
Preserves Your Jawbone
Missing teeth cause jawbone deterioration. Implants stimulate your jawbone like natural tooth roots, preventing bone loss and maintaining your facial structure.
Durable and Long-Lasting
Dental implants last 25 years or longer, often for a lifetime. They’re one of the most durable tooth replacement options available.
Improved Quality of Life
With implants, you eat the foods you love, speak clearly, and smile confidently. Your quality of life improves dramatically.
