Ottawa, Ontario, June 21, 2017 - The procedure commonly involves several dental professionals to complete each individual task: A periodontist, an oral or maxillofacial surgeon, and a prosthodontist or general dentist to implant, design and fit your artificial teeth. At our dental clinic, however, Dr. Wakter can perform every aspect of the procedure in-office to save time and – most importantly – ensure that the treatment is done with the utmost care.

Please note that while dental implants can substantially improve your quality of life, they are not for everyone. Certain chronic health conditions may prevent your eligibility for this procedure, but only your dentist can determine whether or not you are a candidate. Also note that old age is not necessarily a deterrent!

Computer Guided Implant Surgery

In the past radiographic images used to place implants were two dimensional providing a reasonable estimate of bone height. Often bone width was not determined until the bone was exposed during surgery sometimes resulting in compromised placement of the implant.

Computer Guided Implant Surgery gives very detailed 3-D visualizations and coupled with the appropriate software allows us to place implants with a level of precision that was unattainable several years ago. In addition, the surgical procedures can often be accomplished in a much more conservative procedure which involves greatly reduced discomfort, less treatment time and a more accurate final outcome.

Computer Guided Implant placement is the safest and most precise way to place dental implants.
