Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon*

Regardless of whether you are ready to schedule your dental implant procedure or are still in the process of researching if dental implants are the best solution for you, ClearChoice Dental Implants Aventura is here to guide you through the process. Dental implants provide a permanent base for fixed replacement teeth, making them a popular and effective solution for missing or failing teeth. Unlike dentures or bridges, dental implants fit, feel, and function more like your natural teeth. 

Gum disease can lead to serious health problems like stroke, heart disease, and cancer, so it’s important to get treatment right away. ClearChoice Dental Implants Aventura can help you find a comfortable and permanent solution to your dental issues and get you on the road to better oral and overall health.
