Now Placing Dental Implants

Big news! We are expanding our implant services. I just completed the Alabama Implant Education’s week long program for surgical placement of implants. We have restored implants for years, but finding a good program, at the right time, for placement has been elusive. During my week in Birmingham I placed 9 implants under the supervision of Dr.s McCracken and Rosenstiel. We studied their protocols for full arch (all top and/or all bottom) placement and individual implant placement. We practiced their surgical preparation protocol and reviewed the medications that are routinely used preoperatively and postoperatively. It was a very through preparation for bringing implants into our practice.
The next step for us will be an “implant day” here at in the practice late January. We will be scheduling Dr. McCracken to come work with me as we place implants for our patients here in the office.  Patients who elect to have implants placed and restored by me will benefit from significant savings for being part of our start in dental implantology through the end of 2015. If you have questions about how dental implants may benefit you, I will be happy to meet and discuss them with you.
