Over the years, we have been privileged to help many patients achieve a new smile. They’ve come to us with a variety of problems such as missing teeth, broken teeth, and discolored teeth.
We have different treatment options for the various conditions that were burdening our patients before they came to us. But in many cases, the most dramatic improvement comes with the installation of a full set of upper or lower implants. This process truly transforms the appearance of the patient.
However, those same patients discover that this is not merely a cosmetic procedure, but a quality of life procedure. Because after the full arch dental implants are in place, patients are relieved that they no longer have to deal with the daily hassles of denture removal, cleaning and maintenance. And they no longer have to worry about the potential for dentures loosening and slipping at embarrassing times.
Most of all, with the security of long-term dental implants, patients are delighted that many of their favorite foods are “back on the table.” So this not only means that they can enjoy many fruits, vegetables (and occasional snacks) that were not possible for them to eat before—they can also more fully enjoy the occasions where those foods are served. As a result, these implants help enhance the experience of holiday meals for many our patients.
Please a look at these actual before and after photos of some actual patients of Forest Smiles. While every patient’s situation is slightly different, these photos illustrate the severity of some of their “Before” conditions…as well as the very natural appearance seen in their “After” photos.
These images may help you imagine how our procedures might be able to help you, as well. And we would be happy to answer any questions you may have about our treatment options.
We’ve learned that for many of our patients, the investment in dental implants is truly an investment in self-confidence.

The Process
3D Treatment Planning
Dr. Claiborne employs the latest 3D technology for precise, minimally invasive treatment. As the first step in the treatment process, he will use his state-of-the-art, in-office 3D scanner to obtain accurate, 360-degree views of your mouth and jaw area. This enables him to identify the best locations for the placement of the implants. He then uses special 3D implant planning software to plan the exact position and angle of each implant.
Computer-Generated Surgical Guide
When needed, such as when placing multiple implants at the same time, Dr. Claiborne creates a computer-generated surgical guide to assist him with accurate placement. This makes the surgery itself a totally smooth and efficient procedure.
Benefits of Dental Implants
- Implants let you talk, chew and exert pressure, just like with natural teeth.
- Implant-supported dentures have no false palate, which means you can taste and enjoy your food.
- Implants are the strongest and longest-lasting replacement for missing or broken-down teeth.
- Implants don’t require alteration to the structure of adjacent teeth, as with dental bridges.
- Implants help preserve bone in the jaw. They prevent the collapsed, wrinkled look from the progressive bone loss that occurs with dentures and missing teeth.
