What we do
The treatment Avondale patients come for.
Single tooth implants
One implant, one crown, and the teeth either side left completely alone.
Full-arch and All-on-4
Four to six implants carrying a fixed arch that does not come out at night.
Implant bridges
Three or four teeth in a row on two implants, rather than one implant per tooth.
Implant dentures
A denture that snaps onto implants instead of floating on the gum.
Bone grafting and sinus elevation
Rebuilding the ridge, or creating height in the upper back jaw, so an implant becomes possible.
Second opinions
On implant work planned or already done elsewhere. Bring whatever records you have.
Why people travel for this
One dentist, start to finish.
For implant cases the practical argument is continuity. One dentist plans the case, places the implants and delivers the final restoration, so there is no second office, no second set of records and nobody to point at when something does not fit.
