Understand the treatment

An implant replaces a missing tooth root and supports a crown, bridge or denture. A careful assessment helps determine whether it is right for you.

Is an implant an option for you?

Your dentist assesses your gums, jawbone, medical history and the space available. Active gum disease, smoking and some medical conditions can affect healing. If bone support is limited, additional treatment may be discussed. An implant is one option; bridges and removable dentures may also be appropriate.

Planning, placement and restoration

Treatment usually includes assessment and imaging, placement of the implant, healing, and fitting the replacement tooth. The number of visits and healing period depend on the site and treatment plan. Ask who handles surgery, the final restoration and follow-up care.

Recovery and long-term care

Follow the clinician’s instructions for cleaning, eating and follow-up. Infection, injury to nearby structures and implant failure are possible. Ongoing cleaning and professional maintenance remain important even though the replacement tooth cannot develop a cavity.

What to include in your estimate

Request an itemized estimate for imaging, surgery, the connecting component, the crown or denture, any grafting, and maintenance. Ask how complications or replacement parts would be billed. Do not assume that a quoted implant fee includes the finished tooth.

Verify a professional

Use your province or territory’s professional resources to check registration and explore directories. A dentist’s registration does not establish availability or CDCP participation.

Costs, insurance and the CDCP

Fees vary by practice and treatment. Ask for a written estimate and confirm your out-of-pocket cost. The CDCP is federal; provincial or territorial programs may also apply depending on your circumstances.
