Complex Cases
Advanced Implant Procedures
When standard implants aren't enough.
For patients who've been told they're not candidates for implants because of bone loss, sinus position, or other complexity — there are still options. Bone grafting, sinus lifts, zygomatic implants, and coordinated full-mouth reconstruction. Coordinated by your MyBite denturist with our surgical partners.

Advanced Implant Procedures — what patients ask
Possibly, but worth a second opinion. Advances in implant techniques mean many cases that were rejected 10 years ago are routine today. Bring your existing CBCT or imaging to a free consultation.
Multi-stage cases (grafting + healing + implants + healing + prosthetic) can take 12–18 months total. Each stage individually is straightforward — the timeline is dictated by biology, not complexity.
Surgical procedures are coordinated with our surgical partners. Treatment planning, prosthetic design, and follow-up care happen at MyBite. Your denturist coordinates the entire case.
Advanced cases are quoted in stages with written estimates. There's no surprise total — we walk through every component before treatment begins.
