Dental Implants in Plantation, FL | LiveWell Dentistry

Dental Implant Treatment Designed Around Your Smile

​

Losing one or more teeth can affect more than your smile. Missing teeth can make chewing and speaking more difficult and may change how your remaining teeth function. Dental implants provide a way to replace missing teeth with restorations supported by implants placed in the jaw. At LiveWell Dentistry in Plantation,
Florida, Dr. Jorge L. Garaicoa combines implant treatment with prosthodontic planning to focus on function, appearance, comfort, and long-term oral health.
 

Why Work With a Prosthodontist for Dental Implants?

Prosthodontics focuses on restoring and replacing teeth and other oral structures.
Implant treatment involves both the surgical placement of implants and the design
and function of the final restoration. Having implant care planned through a prosthodontic perspective can be especially valuable when cases involve multiple missing teeth, full-arch treatment, complex restorations, or significant changes to the bite.

Dr. Jorge L. Garaicoa specializes in Prosthodontics and has 17 years of experience combining clinical practice, teaching, and scientific research. His postgraduate training includes an AEGD program at the Eastman Institute for Oral Health and a specialty in Prosthodontics plus a Master of Science from the University of Iowa.

What to Expect During Your Dental Implant Consultation

A dental implant consultation is the starting point for understanding your options. LiveWell Dentistry describes its first-visit process as a comprehensive evaluation followed by a personalized treatment plan and open communication about the next steps.

For implant patients, the evaluation may include clinical examination, dental X-rays, impressions, and other diagnostic information needed to assess your teeth, gums, jaw, and restorative needs. Dr. Garaicoa can then discuss which treatment options may be appropriate for your specific situation.
The goal is to understand your current oral health, identify what needs to be addressed, and build a treatment plan around your needs and goals.

Who May Benefit From Dental Implants?

Dental implants may be considered for adults who are missing one or more teeth or who need replacement of teeth that cannot be predictably restored. Candidacy depends on individual factors, including oral health, gum health, available bone, medical history, and the type of restoration being planned.
