Any procedure can be done under local anesthesia (numbing injections), but IV sedation offers a less stressful and more comfortable experience to patients who are candidates.
​
​Most commonly done for wisdom teeth removal or longer implant surgeries.
​Essential for patients with anxiety or dentophobia.
Most people do not have room in the jaw for third molars.
​This leads to impaction, or inability to erupt like the rest of the teeth.
​Impacted third molars are very likely to develop decay, painful infection, and can even cause decay of adjacent teeth if not removed.
​The ideal age for removal is between 15 and 18, so do not procrastinate!
The oral cavity can be home to many lesions, growths, or tissue abnormalities.
​While they are usually benign, oral cancers can also arise, even in non-smokers.
​
A biopsy is when either part of or the entire abnormality is removed and sent to a lab for diagnosis under a microscope.
​The procedure is typically short with minimal recovery.
The TMJ (temporomandibular joint) is where your lower jaw interfaces with the skull base.
​This joint allows you to open, close, and chew.
​Click and pop sounds are present in around 40% of individuals, but usually do not lead to any severe problems.
​When inflammation builds up in a joint, it can cause pain and limited ability to open and chew.
​
Non-invasive options are available and preferable to surgery in almost all scenarios.
Dental Implants
​​
-
The gold standard for replacing missing teeth.
-
​Replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or with 4 or more implants an entire arch of teeth.
-
​Some teeth can be replaced with an implant immediately after extraction.
-
​Surgery is safe and usually less than one hour.
-
​Recovery usually only lasts a few days.
Titanium dental implants are a reliable, long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth.
They integrate with the jawbone to create a strong foundation for natural-looking crowns, bridges, or full-arch restorations and are known for their strength, stability, and predictable success.
Zirconia (ceramic) implants are metal-free, tooth-colored dental implants that replace missing teeth with a natural appearance and excellent biocompatibility.
They integrate with the jawbone like traditional implants while offering superior aesthetics and are ideal for patients with metal sensitivities or those seeking a more natural-looking result.
Immediate dental implants replace a tooth at the same visit it is extracted.
This helps preserve bone and gum tissue, shortens treatment time, and avoids waiting months for an implant. The implant heals in the bone over a few months before a final crown is placed, restoring a natural-looking and functional tooth.
Same-day full-mouth dental implants replace all missing or failing teeth in a single visit.
Using advanced digital planning and implant techniques, a fixed set of natural-looking teeth is placed on the same day as surgery. This provides immediate function, improved appearance, and a faster, more efficient path to full smile restoration.
Vitality Teeth® is a next-generation full-arch implant solution that builds on traditional concepts like All-on-4® and All-on-6 using advanced digital planning, refined surgical techniques, and both titanium and zirconia (metal-free) implant options. Designed for greater precision, stability, and aesthetics, it delivers a highly customized, same-day full-mouth restoration experience.
All-on-6 dental implants replace a full arch of missing teeth using six strategically placed implants for enhanced strength, stability, and long-term support.
Compared to traditional All-on-4® treatment, All-on-6 can provide improved force distribution and a more reinforced foundation for patients with adequate bone volume.
Teeth In A Day® is an advanced full-mouth implant solution that allows patients to have failing teeth removed, implants placed, and a fixed set of natural-looking teeth delivered in a single day.
This streamlined approach restores function, aesthetics, and confidence immediately—eliminating the need for long treatment timelines or removable dentures.
All-on-X is a customized full-mouth implant treatment designed to replace an entire arch of missing or failing teeth using a strategic number of dental implants for maximum support and stability.
Whether using four, five, or six implants, this advanced same-day solution restores a permanent, fixed smile that looks natural and functions like real teeth.
FP1, FP2, and FP3 are classifications of fixed full-mouth implant prostheses that describe how much tooth and gum tissue is replaced in a full-arch restoration. FP1 closely recreates natural teeth with minimal gum replacement, FP2 restores teeth with slight gum compensation for mild tissue loss, and FP3 replaces both teeth and a larger portion of gum tissue for cases with significant bone and soft tissue loss.

Tissue Engineering
​
-
The jaws atrophy after teeth are removed, and sometimes bone or gingiva (gums) must be augmented to provide space to place dental implants.​
-
With modern biomaterials, grafts no longer must be harvested from patients, reducing recovery without compromising results.​
-
Often grafting may be done simultaneously with implant placement.
Socket preservation bone grafting is a procedure performed at the time of tooth extraction to maintain the surrounding bone and prevent natural shrinkage.
By placing bone graft material into the empty socket, this treatment helps preserve bone volume and creates a stable foundation for a future dental implant.
Jaw bone grafting is a regenerative procedure used to rebuild and strengthen areas of the jaw where bone has been lost due to missing teeth, gum disease, or injury.
By restoring bone volume and density, this treatment creates a stable foundation for future dental implants and helps support long-term oral health, function, and aesthetics.
A sinus lift bone graft is a specialized procedure used to add bone to the upper jaw when there is not enough height in the back region for dental implants.
By gently lifting the sinus membrane and placing bone graft material underneath, this treatment creates a strong, stable foundation for future implant placement in the upper molar area.
Total Jaw Anatomy Regeneration is an advanced full jaw reconstruction procedure and an evolution of the “Jaw in a day®” concept, designed to restore the jaw’s full structure, function, and aesthetics in a single surgical event. Using virtual surgical planning, microvascular techniques, and immediate implant placement, this multidisciplinary approach aims to regenerate the jaw with high precision and long-term biological stability.
Dental Implantology
Dental implants offer a permanent solution for missing or unfixable teeth by integrating directly with the jawbone to preserve natural bone structure. While conventional treatment takes four months, advanced techniques frequently allow for implant placement at the same time as a tooth extraction, cutting recovery time in half. For complex cases, comprehensive same-day full-arch reconstructions can completely replace a full set of teeth in a single visit.

​
The practice utilizes premium, highly biocompatible materials to suit every clinical need. Options include traditional titanium implants enhanced with specialized surface treatments to accelerate healing—especially beneficial for smokers or diabetics—as well as advanced, non-metallic zirconia implants for patients seeking a completely metal-free alternative.
