Dental implants are a very exciting area in dentistry, and competency and expertise in treatment planning is critical. Dental implants are titanium-coated devices placed in the bone that can then have restorative dentistry placed over them. Tooth implant treatment planning can be difficult and complex in nature. Implants can be used to replace anywhere from one missing tooth to all missing teeth. Treatment plan options for these tooth implants are nearly endless, as every mouth calls for a unique approach.
Patient assessments and patient education concerning treatment plan options should be discussed to develop the best plan for the patient. The doctor must understand esthetics, function (bite) and anatomy to successfully treat these challenging cases. Much care should also be taken to choose the right doctor–selection of a competent implant dentist will lead to optimum results. With over 30 years of experience in implant dentistry, Dr. Jaksa and his oral surgery team have the clinical skills and education to treatment plan and restore your mouth with excellence.
