Replace missing teeth
Dental implants can replace one tooth, several teeth or support a full-arch restoration. At Belman Dental Centre in Midtown Toronto, we use digital imaging and careful treatment planning to assess single implants, All-on-4® treatment and implant-retained dentures around your health, function and goals.
A dental implant is a small titanium post placed into the jaw to act as an artificial tooth root. After the implant integrates with the bone, it supports a custom crown, bridge or denture so the replacement tooth looks, feels and functions like a natural tooth.
Implants are planned using digital X-rays and 3D scanning to confirm position and fit, and the finished restoration is matched to your smile.
Belman Dental Centre is a general dental practice located at 1881 Yonge St., Suite 403, serving Davisville, Eglinton and Midtown Toronto. Dr. Noah Belman graduated from the University of Toronto Faculty of Dentistry and completed postgraduate training with the Misch Implant Institute, The Pankey Institute and Spear Education. We use digital X-rays and the iTero Element 3D scanner to improve accuracy and predictability.
We offer a full pathway of care from assessment through crown placement. Sedation options such as nitrous oxide and oral sedation are available when appropriate. If your case requires specialist care, we will discuss referral options.
Dental implants can restore chewing comfort, speech and the appearance of your smile while preserving adjacent teeth. They are a long-term option when maintained with good oral hygiene and regular dental visits.
Alternatives include fixed bridges or removable dentures. During your consultation we will review the pros and cons of each option and whether implant treatment or referral to a specialist is the best path for your situation.
Full-Arch Tooth Replacement
When most or all teeth in an arch are missing or cannot be predictably restored, Dr. Noah Belman can assess fixed and removable implant-supported options. The right approach depends on bone, oral health, medical history, functional needs and personal preferences.
The All-on-4® treatment concept uses four strategically positioned dental implants to support a fixed full-arch restoration. Suitability, preparatory treatment and whether a provisional restoration can be placed at surgery are determined through individual clinical and imaging assessment.
An implant-retained denture attaches to implants rather than relying only on the gums for support. Removable options can be taken out for cleaning, while fixed implant-supported restorations are removed only by a dental professional for maintenance.
Digital X-rays, examination and treatment planning help compare fixed and removable choices, maintenance needs, timing and fees. Some cases may require staged care or coordination with a dental specialist.

Personalized Care
A conversation and clinical assessment are the best way to understand your options. People often ask about dental implants when they are experiencing one or more of the following situations.
What to Expect
We start with a clinical exam, digital X-rays and a 3D iTero scan as needed to evaluate bone, gum health and neighbouring teeth. A dental and medical history will help determine whether implants are suitable or if additional care is needed.
Using the imaging results we create a personalised plan that outlines implant position, type of restoration and any preparatory procedures such as bone grafting or periodontal therapy. We review timelines, sedation options and estimated steps so you know what to expect.
The implant post is placed into the jaw during a minor surgical appointment. Healing time varies; the implant integrates with bone before the final restoration is attached. Nitrous oxide or oral sedation can be offered to make the experience more comfortable.
After healing, a custom crown, bridge or denture is fitted and adjusted for comfort and function. We provide follow-up care and recommend regular maintenance visits to monitor the implant and surrounding tissues.
Planning Your Care
Costs for dental implants vary with the complexity of the case, the number of implants, any preparatory work (for example bone grafting or periodontal treatment) and the type of final restoration. We provide personalised treatment plan and fee information after a clinical assessment so you understand what is included.
Many patients use dental insurance or financing to help manage fees; coverage and benefits differ by plan. Our team can discuss typical payment options and help you explore third‑party financing or direct billing where available.
Good to Know
With proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, the implant post can last many years or decades. The prosthetic crown or denture portion may require replacement over time due to normal wear. Individual outcomes depend on factors such as oral health, bite forces and maintenance.
Most patients experience some discomfort and swelling after the procedure, which is commonly managed with over-the-counter pain relief and short-term antibiotics when prescribed. Nitrous oxide and oral sedation are available to improve comfort during treatment. We will explain aftercare and pain management at your appointment.
Active gum disease or insufficient bone volume can affect implant success. That does not automatically rule out implants—periodontal therapy or bone grafting may be recommended first. A clinical assessment with digital X-rays and 3D scanning will determine the safest plan.
Treatment timelines vary. After assessment and any necessary preparatory care, placement and integration usually take several months before the final restoration. Some cases can be completed faster, while others require staged treatment; a personalised timeline will be provided during planning.
Yes. Dr. Noah Belman offers the All-on-4® treatment concept and assesses removable and fixed implant-supported denture options. The appropriate design, number and position of implants, treatment sequence and need for specialist coordination depend on an individual examination and imaging.
