Dental Implants in Shelby Township

Accurately and gently restoring your smile's look and function.

Dental implants are the preferred choice for millions of dental patients who have lost one or multiple teeth. An implant consists of a titanium post being inserted into your jawbone and then topped with a custom-made crown. The implant is fixed in place and cannot be removed. Dr. Fredal uses Hahn Implants for greater versatility, efficiency, stability, and precision.

The procedure for a Hahn Implant is simple. First, Dr. Fredal examines the area and creates a plan using i-CAT technology. Next, he cleans and prepares where the tooth used to be and surgically places the biocompatible post. Once the post has fused with the bone, he tops it with a dental crown, thus restoring the function and look of your smile.

Our implant dentist in Shelby Township is a graduate of the Misch International Implant Institute (MII). The MII has been the leader and at the forefront of implant education by training general dentists and specialists across the world. Dr. Fredal uses the latest technology, and always ensures you understand each stage of the process.

i-CAT Guided Surgery

Achieve the MOST precise results possible!

Placing dental implants demands accuracy and precision. To enable both of these, Dr. Thomas Fredal uses i-CAT software. This modern technology allows your implant dentist to place or restore implants with greater accuracy and confidence.

Through i-CAT, we can attain high-quality, 3-D images of your mouth and identify exactly how and where to place the implant. Using a series of digital x-rays and computer planning tools, Dr. Fredal uses i-CAT to guide your implant surgery. He can map out the entire course of treatment, all the way to the final restoration. This results in a predictable, reliable, and accurate outcome.

"Best dentist and staff on the planet! I'm grateful to have them. I know I never have to worry about my teeth!"

Implants for All

Our i-CAT software can help with a number of implant-based dental procedures, which leave you with a fully functional and beautiful smile.

Retained Dentures

When you are missing multiple teeth, implants can be used to create dentures. These are permanently bonded into your mouth to prevent movement, increase function, and boost confidence.

Dental Bridges

Bridges may be a better option for some who are missing a tooth. Implants can be used to support the new artificial tooth. Normally, an implant is placed for each missing tooth and then the crowns take shape either side.

Bone Grafting

Occasionally, bone loss when missing a tooth can leave you without enough structure to secure an implant. When this happens Dr. Fredal can take bone from a number of sources in your mouth to facilitate an implant.
