Dental Implants have become a great alternative to dentures for restoring a beautiful, natural looking smile. Implants are more comfortable than dentures, last longer, and look like your natural teeth. While Dental Implants have been growing in popularity, the media has been flooding our televisions, in-boxes, social media feeds, and internet searches with information about them. Some of this information might be misleading and confusing. The next few articles we post here, we will review some of the information out there and try to help you, our patients, have a better understanding before making important decisions about your smile and your dental health.

You may have heard:
​

A general dentist can perform the oral surgery required to place dental implants and there are many general dentists that advertise dental implants.

It is true that any dentist can legally perform the oral surgery required for the placement of dental implants. The reality is that the surgical training that a general dentist receives is substantially less than the training a periodontal specialist or oral and maxillofacial surgeon completes. In fact, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons and Periodontists are the only surgical specialists recognized by the American Dental Association (ADA.) The additional 3 to 4 years of residency training during which a good deal of time is spent on anesthesia training and diagnosing and treating potential complications. While most dental implant procedures are performed routinely, it is comforting to know that when you are working with a licensed Periodontist, that extra training is on your team!

Dr Jeffrey Hameroff is the only licensed Periodontal Specialist in Hernando County. In addition to his resident specialty training, Dr Hameroff has completed additional training for IV Conscious Sedation and extensive studies in the field of Oral Implantology.
