Wisdom Teeth Removal

Impacted or problematic wisdom teeth can cause pain, infection, crowding, and damage to neighboring teeth. We provide careful evaluation and surgical removal when treatment is recommended.

Tooth Extractions

When a tooth cannot be restored, surgical extraction can relieve discomfort, address infection, and protect your overall oral health.

Restore Your Smile

Advanced Dental Implants & Full-Arch Restoration

Dental implants offer a reliable foundation for replacing missing teeth and restoring oral function. Whether you are missing a single tooth, several teeth, or an entire arch, Dr. Christopher Duplaga provides advanced implant surgical solutions tailored to your individual needs.

Our practice specializes in dental implant placement and full-arch implant surgery, including All-on-X treatment. For eligible patients, a fixed temporary restoration may be delivered on the day of surgery through close coordination with a restorative dentist.

Dr. Duplaga works collaboratively with restorative dental professionals to ensure implant placement supports each patient’s long-term functional and restorative goals.

Dental Implants

Dental implants replace missing tooth roots and provide a secure foundation for crowns, bridges, and other restorations.

All-on-X Implants

All-On-X treatment uses strategically placed dental implants to support a fixed full-arch restoration for patients who have lost most or all of their teeth.

Same Day Implants

In select cases, dental implants may be placed during the same appointment as tooth removal, helping streamline the treatment process.

Implant-Supported Dentures

Dental implants can help stabilize dentures and provide improved comfort, function, and confidence compared with traditional removable dentures.

Zygomatic Implants

For certain patients with significant upper jaw bone loss, zygomatic implants may provide an alternative to extensive bone grafting by using the cheekbone for support.

Pterygoid Implants

Pterygoid implants may be considered in advanced cases involving limited bone in the back portion of the upper jaw.
