Bone loss in the jaw is common after a tooth has been missing for a while, and it can make implant placement more complicated. A bone graft rebuilds that lost volume so the implant has a solid foundation to integrate with. The procedure is well established, recovery is manageable, and it opens the door to implant options that might otherwise be off the table.

Full Arch and All on 4
Full arch implants, often called All on 4, replace an entire row of teeth using just four to six implants as anchors. No more adhesive, no more slipping, no more avoiding certain foods. The teeth are fixed in place and feel remarkably close to natural.
We have completed hundreds of full arch restorations at our Yaletown clinic. If you are weighing this against traditional dentures, or if your current dentures are not cutting it, this is a conversation worth having.

An implant replaces a missing tooth from the root up. A small titanium post is placed into the jawbone, and once it integrates, a custom crown is attached on top. The result looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth. Unlike a bridge, there is no need to modify the teeth beside it, and unlike a denture, it is not going anywhere.
Our team has placed implants for patients across Downtown Vancouver and beyond, from single tooth replacements to complex full arch cases. If you have been told you are not a candidate elsewhere, it is worth getting a second opinion here.
Why Implants Matter for Your Long Term Health
They preserve jawbone density where the tooth was lost. They prevent neighbouring teeth from shifting. They restore full chewing function. And they give you back the confidence to smile without thinking about it.
The Implant Process
Consultation and 3D imaging. Implant placement under local anaesthetic. A healing period of three to six months as the implant fuses with the bone. Finally, a custom crown is attached. The timeline varies by case, but the result is built to last decades.
