Dental Implant Case Studies

An implant replaces the root of a missing tooth with a titanium post that the bone grows onto, and a crown, bridge or full arch sits on top. What makes the result look natural is mostly above the bone: where the implant sits, how the gum is shaped around it, and how the ceramic matches the teeth beside it.

These cases range from a single front tooth to full arches. Some began with implants placed elsewhere that were in the wrong position, and show what we did to work around them.
