If you’re missing one or more teeth, dental implants are the most advanced, durable, and natural-looking solution available. At Apex Oral Surgery in Tallahassee, Dr. Christian Jimenez provides precision implant placement using state-of-the-art imaging, guided technology, and minimally invasive surgical techniques. Whether you need a single implant, multiple implants, or a full-mouth restoration, our practice delivers exceptional surgical expertise to restore your confidence, chewing ability, and long-term oral health.
Dental implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth—and with the care of a trained oral surgeon, you can expect the highest level of accuracy, safety, and long-term success.
What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a titanium or ceramic post placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. Once healed, it is topped with a custom-made crown, creating a restoration that blends beautifully with the surrounding teeth.
Dental implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement because they:
Replace both the root and crown
Preserve jawbone density
Prevent surrounding teeth from shifting
Restore strong, natural chewing function
Look completely natural
Can last decades with proper care
Unlike dentures or bridges, implants stay fixed in place, giving you complete confidence when eating, speaking, and smiling.
Why Choose an Oral Surgeon for Dental Implants?
While many dentists offer implant placement, only oral surgeons receive advanced training in facial anatomy, bone reconstruction, surgical techniques, and anesthesia.
As a specialty-trained surgeon, Dr. Jimenez brings:
Extensive surgical and implant training
Expert management of complex or advanced implant cases
Bone grafting and sinus lift expertise
The ability to provide IV sedation for comfort
More predictable outcomes
Higher surgical precision
Oral surgeons perform implant procedures routinely, making them uniquely qualified for optimal implant success.
