All On 4


The All on 4 dental implant procedure is a full arch replacement, but it requires fewer implants than if each tooth were replaced with an individual implant.

All on 4 provides a fixed, long-lasting, and efficient solution for our patients with missing or failing teeth. It was developed as a middle ground between traditional dentures, and multiple individual implants.

The procedure provides the benefits of implants, a natural-looking smile, and bone growth stimulation in the jaw, but with less surgery and recovery time.

The All on 4 technique secures a full set of upper or lower teeth with only four strategically placed dental implants. Typically, two implants are positioned vertically in the front of the jaw, while the other two are placed at an angle in the back of the jaw.

This maximizes contact with the bone and minimizes the need for bone grafting.

The All on 4 approach ensures stability and strength and also accelerates the entire process of full arch tooth replacement.

All on 4 dental implants offer patients the benefits of a complete smile restoration but with a shorter amount of time spent in surgery and recovery. This makes it appealing for patients looking for a more convenient solution to extensive tooth loss.

Full Mouth Reconstruction


Full mouth reconstruction is a comprehensive and personalized dental treatment. It restores the health, function, and cosmetic appeal of a patient's smile.

The process is a combination of restorative, cosmetic, and surgical procedures that address various dental issues. These issues include missing teeth, decay, gum disease, bite problems, and cosmetic concerns.

A full mouth reconstruction treatment plan is tailored to the unique needs of each patient. It may include dental implants, crowns, bridges, veneers, orthodontics, gum grafting, or other procedures. It depends on a patient's needs, and preferences.

Full mouth reconstruction is recommended for patients with complex dental problems or those seeking a completely restored smile. The goals are to enhance the appearance of the smile, optimize oral health, improve functionality, and align the bite.

The collaborative efforts of the various members of our experienced team ensure the success of a full mouth reconstruction. Afterward, patients walk out with a brand new smile and the confidence that comes with it.

Implant-Supported Dentures


Implant-supported dentures are an effective way to eliminate the challenges of traditional dentures. Conventional dentures rely solely on suction and adhesives, and they slip.

However, implant-supported dentures are anchored securely by dental implants. Either four or six implants are strategically placed into the jawbone, and slippage is eliminated.

This enhances stability and provides a more comfortable feel than traditional dentures.

In addition, implant-supported dentures offer improved chewing with fewer food restrictions. They also improve the clarity of speech and stimulate bone growth in the jaw to prevent facial sagging that comes with tooth loss.

Implant-supported dentures can still be removed for easy cleaning and maintenance, but remain firmly secured when in place. Implant-supported dentures are a reliable and secure choice for patients who seek a better alternative to traditional dentures.

Same Day Smile


Same day smiles are sometimes also referred to as "same day dentures" or "teeth in a day". A same day smile procedure is an efficient approach to dental restoration that provides patients with a complete set of functional, great looking teeth in a single day.

This quick process usually consists of the extraction of the remaining teeth, placement of dental implants, and the attachment of a temporary set of prosthetic teeth.

All of this is done in one day.

However, it is important to note that the initial prosthetic dentures are temporary. A customized, more permanent restoration is crafted after the healing process is complete.

Same-day smile procedures are the most beneficial for patients who are looking for a swift and convenient solution to tooth loss. It offers immediate restoration of mouth function and the appearance of the smile.

Zygomatic Dental Implants


Zygomatic dental implants are a solution for patients who have lost bone density in the upper jaw. The procedure is named after the zygomatic bone, which forms the cheekbone, and is where the implants are placed.

Zygomatic implants are longer than standard dental implants and anchored into the solid, dense cheekbones. This technique circumvents the need for bone grafting procedures. It is a simpler option for individuals with significant upper jawbone deterioration.

Zygomatic implants provide a stable foundation for the attachment of both bridges and dentures. This approach is particularly valuable for those who were previously deemed ineligible for traditional implants.

Zygomatic dental implants are an effective and more efficient solution for cases of upper jaw tooth and bone density loss.

Single Tooth Replacement


A single tooth replacement dental implant restores the form and function of a missing tooth with a custom crown. The replacement crown replicates the natural tooth.

Single dental implants are a common, highly effective solution for single tooth replacement.

The process starts with the surgical placement of a titanium implant into the jawbone, which anchors the crown.

A single crown is custom-made to match the shape, size, and color of the surrounding natural teeth. It seamlessly blends into the patient's smile.

This approach preserves the health of adjacent teeth compared to traditional bridges that require neighboring teeth for support.

Replacing a single tooth with an implant-supported crown enhances the appearance of the smile, and provides a durable solution that mimics the strength and function of the natural tooth.
