Dr. Baluschak Restores Smiles and Confidence with Dental Implants

Are you embarrassed by a missing tooth in your smile? Are loose dentures keeping you from enjoying your favorite foods?

Whether you’re missing one tooth or a whole row, dental implants can restore the comfort and functionality you’ve been missing. How’s this possible? Because implants don’t just replace a missing tooth—they replace the missing root, too. This means your jawbone can finally get the stimulation it needs to remain strong, while your  oral health is better protected against common problems like gum disease and tooth decay.

Comfortable, Functional Relief for Your Smile

Think of your implants as anchors. Where you’re missing a tooth, or replacing your traditional denture with an implant-retained denture, Dr. Baluschak will work closely with a trusted oral surgeon who places the small, biocompatible implant post(s). As the dental implant heals,  it stimulates bone tissue, which fuses to the post, resulting in a bond that’s strong enough to support your new prosthetic tooth, or teeth, for years to come.

Dr. Baluschak Shines a Spotlight on Oral Cancer

Even though overall incidence rates of cancer are on the decline, did you know diagnoses of oral cancer are on the rise? Why? The reason is that oral cancer just hasn’t been in the public spotlight.

But Dr. Baluschak wants to change that.

Not only is he using his “Like” for Charity Campaign on his Facebook fanpage to help raise awareness during Cancer Awareness Month, but also checks each of his patients for signs of cancer during regular dental exam visits. That’s why maintaining regular checkups are so important. Seeing us could not only improve your smile—it could save your life!

Oral Cancer Is Treatable—But Only If You Know You Have It

In many cases, patients aren’t diagnosed with oral cancer until the disease is well into its later stages, and often, patients weren’t even aware they were sick. This makes treating the disease much more difficult. But, when found early on, chances of recovery are significantly higher.

Checkups & Hygiene at our Oakville Office: Your 1st Line of Defense for Good Health

Many oral health issues, including periodontal (gum) disease, present few or no symptoms in the early stage. By the time you’re aware a problem exists, significant damage has occurred.
