Why Choose An Oral Surgeon For Your Dental Implants

Dr. Robert L. Bass  D.D.S.

Dental implants have become the clear choice for replacing single or multiple missing teeth. Although the procedure is extremely technical, when performed by an experienced oral surgeon, the results are typically very predictable. As you begin to explore your options with dental implants in Palm Springs/Palm Desert, you can be confident that our oral surgeons have the expertise to permanently restore your smile.

The dental implant procedure is an amazing combination of science and cosmetics. After extensively reviewing your medical history, your oral surgeon will implant a surgical grade titanium post into your jaw bone. Using state of the art imaging technology, the oral surgeon can evaluate the anatomical curvatures of your bone in order to identify the exact location for your implant.

When the jaw bone is not dense enough to support an implant, your oral surgeon may suggest a bone grafting procedure to improve stability.

During the planning and placement of your implant, the oral surgeon will pay particular attention to the esthetic aspects of the procedure. How will the implant be angled to align with the neighboring teeth? How is the jaw bone shaped near the implant? Does the gum tissue look healthy and natural around the implant? These aspects are just as important as the clinical success of the implant. You deserve a tooth replacement solution that is both strong and beautiful.

By trusting our oral surgeons to restore your smile, you have access to a specialist who possesses a wealth of knowledge. In addition to completing four years of dental school, oral surgeons receive specialized education and hospital residencies in cardiology, internal medicine, plastic surgery, and anesthesia. With the ability to combine dental procedures with surgical expertise, an oral surgeon is the most likely specialist to deliver superior implant dentistry.
