For the "single surgery" method a CAT scan of the jawbone is taken. Using the CAT scan information and the state of the art computer modeling techniques, a model of the jawbone is constructed. This computerized model is used by a dental laboratory to create the custom-fit subperiosteal implant. A dentist then surgically positions the implant on the bone. Afterwards, the gums are closed with several stitches and the artificial teeth are attached to the implant.
In the "dual surgery" method, the dentist will cut through the gums and take an impression of the bone using special materials. The gum is then sealed up. This model is then submitted to the dental laboratory where the dental implant is custom-made to fit your jaw. The next procedure is then carried out where the Best Dentist in Ottawa again cut opens the gums and places the implant. The gums are again closed with several stitches.
