Bone Grafting & Sinus Lifts
For patients with insufficient bone volume, Dr. Tocchio performs advanced bone grafting and sinus lift procedures. These techniques create a solid foundation for implants where it previously didn't exist.
The procedure involves placing a titanium implant into the jawbone where the missing tooth root was located. This serves as a stable anchor for a custom-made crown that matches your natural teeth in color, shape, and size.
At Vitality Health, we use 3D CBCT imaging and computer-guided surgery to ensure precise implant placement in the optimal position for both function and esthetics. Your natural bite force is preserved, protecting the surrounding teeth and bone.
Recovery typically takes 1-2 weeks, during which you'll wear a temporary crown. Once the implant integrates with the bone over 3-6 months, your permanent crown is fabricated in our on-site lab and fitted for a seamless smile.
Complex Extractions
Dr. Tocchio has the expertise to handle challenging extractions, including impacted teeth, teeth with complex root anatomy, and cases requiring surgical techniques. He minimizes trauma to surrounding bone and tissue.
