Dental implants

Placed by the man who holds the patent.

Dr. Kurpis holds a United States patent for a dental implant and has placed more than five thousand of them. Implants are planned on a three dimensional scan, not estimated from a flat X‑ray.

A CBCT scan used to plan implant placement at the Kurpis Center.

Planned in three dimensions

A flat X‑ray flattens a structure that is not flat. A CBCT scan shows bone volume, nerve position and sinus anatomy before anything is placed, which is how a case is judged possible or not.

01

Bone and nerve mapped

Volume, density and the inferior alveolar nerve are read from the scan, not inferred.

02

Zirconia restorations

Metal-free, tissue-friendly, and colour-stable at the gumline where titanium can show through.

03

Fees that reflect the practice

Patients report fees roughly 30 to 50 percent below area quotes. Exact cost follows examination.

A question worth asking first

When teeth can still be saved

An implant is an excellent replacement for a tooth that cannot be kept. It is a poor replacement for one that could have been. Structural viability, gum and bone stability and bite physics are settled before any extraction is proposed.

Questions

Asked often.

How much do dental implants cost?

Patients report fees roughly 30 to 50 percent below area quotes. Exact cost follows examination. Financing starts at 0% over twelve months.

Am I too old for implants?

Age is rarely the limiting factor. Bone volume, general health and bite mechanics are. All three are assessed at the evaluation.

How many implants will I need?

Fewer than most people are told. The number follows the diagnosis, and a full arch does not automatically require an implant per tooth.

The preliminary consultation is free and includes a 2‑D panoramic scan. If the plan you were given was the right one, you will be told so.
