Why is 3D CBCT imaging important for dental implants?

3D CBCT scans allow Dr. Gordon to evaluate bone density, nerve location, and jaw structure in three dimensions. This technology ensures precise implant placement, improved safety, and more predictable long-term success.

Are dental implants a permanent solution?

Yes. Dental implants are designed to be a long-term solution for missing teeth. When placed by a specialist and properly maintained, implants can last for decades while preserving jawbone health and restoring natural chewing ability.

Can Dr. Gordon fix failed dental implants from other offices?

Yes. Dr. Gordon frequently treats patients with failing or poorly placed implants from other practices. He specializes in complex implant revision cases and developing solutions when previous treatment did not succeed.

What is All-on-4® full mouth dental implant treatment?

All-on-4® is a technique where just four strategically placed implants support a full arch of fixed teeth. It provides a permanent alternative to dentures and restores function, facial support, and a natural smile.

Am I a candidate for dental implants?

Most healthy adults with missing teeth are candidates. The best way to know is through a consultation with 3D imaging, where we evaluate bone levels and overall oral health.
