Dental implants blend precision and biology to rebuild what’s been lost. Crowns on titanium posts, bone grafts when support is thin, sinus lifts before upper implants—these aren’t quick fixes but deliberate steps toward lasting function. The periodontist’s role sits between surgery and restoration, mapping bone contours while planning aesthetics. Without enough healthy tissue, even the finest prosthetic won’t last long, which is why soft-tissue grafts often precede the final attachment. They address infections first, then shape the site for crowns, bridges, or full-arch prosthetics. At 2845 36th Ave S, the practice occupies a quiet stretch south of downtown Grand Forks. Traveling south on Highway 81, take the 32nd Avenue exit and head east—two traffic lights past the university grid brings you to the low-rise plaza that houses them. They handle implant placement from single-root to full-mouth, using guided stents when precision matters most. Peri-implantitis checks keep existing work stable, and temporary abutments let patients speak and eat while the bone integrates. Techniques shift with research, but the goal stays the same: a solid base before aesthetics. Need a direct line? Call (701) 775-4444.
