A step-by-step look at how dental implants replace missing teeth with a natural-looking, long-lasting result at Morgan Heights Dental Centre.

Missing a tooth can affect how you eat, speak, and smile. A dental implant is a small titanium post that replaces the tooth root, fuses with your jawbone, and supports a natural-looking crown, so the finished tooth looks and feels like it never left.

At Morgan Heights Dental Centre, your treatment is guided by Dr. Alenabi and Dr. Wong, an AAID Fellow and ABOI Diplomate, using three-dimensional planned surgery. Here's how the five-step implant journey works.

  1. Cone Beam CT scan — a 3D scan of your jaw so we can plan the exact position, angle, and depth of the implant.
  2. Digital planning — we design the placement virtually before any treatment begins, mapping the ideal path for a stable, long-lasting result.
  3. Placement — the implant is placed under local anesthetic, with sedation available if you'd prefer to relax through the visit.
  4. Healing — over about four to six months, the implant bonds with your jawbone to create a strong foundation for the new tooth.
  5. Your new crown — we craft a custom crown and shade-match it to your natural teeth so it blends right in.
