Aesthetic tooth replacement
Dr. Leo consistently provides exceptional care to his patients with the outstanding results he has achieved with aesthetic dental implant treatment over the years. The attainment of desired aesthetic outcomes relies on several crucial aspects of the treatment process that Dr. Leo has been trained to perform. These include:
- Utilizing a technique for tooth removal that preserves the surrounding bone.
- Ensuring precise positioning and surgical placement of dental implants to allow a natural appearance of the attached crowns.
- Assessing and addressing bone defects through bone grafting to optimize the site for implant placement and enhance facial contours.
- Exercising careful management of gum tissue during procedures to maintain the natural contours of the gums around implants and achieve a lifelike smile.
Tooth Removal Technique
Dr. Leo employs a meticulous approach to tooth removal, ensuring minimal damage to the surrounding bone. This involves administering local anaesthetic with controlled pressure, sectioning the tooth into parts for careful removal, and preserving the socket through bone grafting when necessary. Preserving bone integrity is crucial for optimal implant positioning and support.
Surgical Implant Procedure
Dr. Leo’s extensive experience in surgical implant placement enables him to evaluate bone density effectively, anticipate challenges, and achieve precise implant positioning. This precision ensures natural-looking emergence of the implant from the gum tissue upon attachment of the final crown.
Appropriate Bone Grafting
Dr. Leo only recommends bone grafting when necessary and performs minimally invasive techniques that promote rapid healing and minimize discomfort for his patients.
Management of Soft Tissue
In addition to precise implant placement, the management of soft tissue is critical for an aesthetic result. His knowledge and skill in gum contouring contributes to the creation of naturally beautiful smiles with aesthetic dental implants.
