Conventional dental implants are a reliable solution for replacing missing teeth with strong, natural-looking and natural-feeling results.

 

They involve placing a titanium post into the jawbone, which acts as an artificial tooth root. Once healed, a custom crown is attached, restoring both function and appearance. This procedure offers long-term stability, preserves jawbone health, and allows patients to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

All-on-X implants is a full-arch tooth replacement solution that uses a fixed prosthesis supported by a strategic number of implants—commonly four to six—placed in the jaw.

This approach provides a stable, permanent set of teeth in a single day or short timeframe, ideal for patients with significant tooth loss or failing teeth. All-on-X offers improved function, aesthetics, and comfort compared to traditional dentures, helping restore confidence and quality of life.

Zygoma and Pterygoid Implants are advanced dental implant options designed for patients with severe upper jaw bone loss where conventional implants aren’t feasible.

 

Zygoma Implants anchor into the dense cheekbone (zygomatic bone), while Pterygoid Implants are placed in the back of the upper jaw near the pterygoid plates. Both provide strong, stable support for dental restorations without the need for extensive bone grafting, allowing for quicker treatment and faster restoration of function and aesthetics.

Failing dental implants can result from infection, bone loss, or improper integration with the jawbone. Early signs include pain, swelling, mobility, or gum recession around the implant.

 

Our team carefully evaluates and manages failing implants using advanced diagnostics and personalized treatment plans, which may involve cleaning, bone regeneration, or implant removal and replacement. We focus on restoring oral health and function while preventing further complications.
