There are several reasons why patients may lose a tooth. Cavities, gum disease, root canal failures or cracked roots, to name some of the few reasons. Implants are a great way to replace teeth or to use in conjunction with partials or dentures to anchor them in place.
Dr. Gatling does not place implants, but works closely with some of the best periodontists and oral surgeons in Jacksonville, who will place the implants. Once the healing has taken place, Dr. Gatling places the restorations for the implants. Dental implants look and feel like natural teeth; but don’t believe us, take a look at our smile gallery for examples of Dr. Gatling’s implant cases.
