Implant Process

3D Imaging and Treatment Planning

State-of-the-art, exceptionally precise 3D digital imaging and implant surgical planning software have made implant procedures faster and highly predictable. Dr. Hugh uses these tools to analyze the anatomy of your jaw and determine the best sites for implant placement before surgery, which saves time, money, and shortens recovery time.

Surgery

For a single dental implant, surgery takes approximately 10 minutes, thanks to the assistance of these technological tools. Additional time may be required for sinus and ridge augmentation grafts and additional dental implants.

Restorative

For a single implant that has fused to the bone, Dr. Hugh can custom make abutments and a CEREC® crown to support your existing implant or help retain your custom-designed prosthesis.

Maintenance

It is essential to have your dental implant(s) and restorations cleaned and checked on a regular basis to ensure optimal health and longevity. We offer advanced dental implant therapy, implants for fixed and removable prostheses, and bone grafting. Dr. Hugh uses digitally-guided surgery, one of the most effective and advanced techniques available, and provides comprehensive follow-up implant care.
