Avanti Dentistry

I wanted to replace 2 upper teeth with implants. Ideally, I wanted one office where I could get the entire procedure done-any potential surgery, implant placement, and of course, final restorations. This requirement, and a frankly reasonable treatment estimate, along with some apparently good karma, lead me to Avanti. After agreeing on a treatment and payment plan, we got right to it. This well- run office does not think its time is more important than mine. I need to replace a front tooth and a molar. As it turns out, the molar implant would go through the floor of my sinus. We can't have that, so Doctor Bita, whose strengths lie in the health of gums and the underlying bone, got to work. She raised the floor of the sinus and filled it with sterile bone. This was a complication which was no barrier at all, as her surgical skills are impressive, and the procedure went quickly, painlessly, and included the front tooth implant placement. I saw the X-rays immediately afterward- the implant was perfectly placed, and the bone for the future molar implant was plentiful and dense. As I write this after 2 weeks of totally uneventful healing, I'm ready to get that permanent crown in front-in several months after bone grows around the implant. This office uses CEREC crowns; in my informed opinion, the most natural looking crowns atop implants. Can't wait. Gotta say-the beautiful, happy smiles I see on the faces of this great office staff, and, perhaps more importantly, on the faces of their patients, tell the story of this fine dental office.
