Dental Implants
Dental implants, designed in three dimensions and placed with precision.
From a single tooth to a full arch, we plan every implant case in three-dimensional software and place each one with sub-millimeter accuracy. Dr. Jackson personally plans, designs, and fabricates the surgical guide for each case in our on-site lab. Care from start to finish — right here in Eustis.
Three pathways
Where are you starting from?
Every implant case is different. Some patients are missing one tooth and want it back without altering healthy neighboring teeth for a bridge. Others have struggled with failing teeth or dentures for years and are ready for a permanent solution. Whichever describes you, the path forward starts with a conversation and a 3D scan.
I am missing one or a few teeth
Single and multi-tooth implants restore individual teeth without affecting the ones beside them. Each implant is planned in three dimensions and placed precisely where it needs to be for long-term health and a natural appearance.
Single & Multi-Tooth ImplantsI need a full-mouth solution
The All-on-X procedure replaces an entire arch of teeth on as few as four implants. We provide All-on-X care from start to finish — including extractions, bone recontouring, bone grafting with PRF, implant placement, and the final prosthesis. With our Yomi robot, our in-house digital lab, and our facially-driven design workflow, we deliver a fixed, natural-looking smile through a carefully planned and well-coordinated process.
All-on-X Full-Arch ImplantsI want to understand the technology first
Our entire implant workflow is digital. CBCT 3D imaging, three-dimensional planning software, the Instarisa facial scanner, and the Yomi robotic guidance system work together to make implant care predictable, comfortable, and accurate.
Yomi & Three-Dimensional Digital PlanningWhy us
Why patients choose us for implants
Implant dentistry has changed enormously over the last decade. Dr. Jackson has built our practice around using the modern tools available today thoughtfully and well, with careful diagnosis and planning at the foundation.
Principle 1
Begin with the end in mind.
For every implant case, Dr. Jackson begins by envisioning the final result — the restored tooth, the restored function, the appearance — and then carefully plans the implant position to support that end. This principle, made famous by Stephen Covey, is the philosophy underlying every implant case we plan and deliver.
Principle 2
The right approach for the case.
Every dental implant we place is planned in three-dimensional software. How the plan is delivered depends on what your specific case requires. For most single-implant and multi-implant procedures, Dr. Jackson personally plans the implant and designs and 3D-prints a custom surgical guide in our in-house lab. For full-arch All-on-X cases, we use the Yomi robotic implant system. Different approaches, both rooted in the same careful planning.
Principle 3
3D planning Dr. Jackson manages personally.
Every implant case begins with a CBCT 3D scan. Dr. Jackson personally plans every implant in Blue Sky Plan three-dimensional software himself — never outsourced. The same person who plans the implant designs the surgical guide, places the implant, and oversees the final restoration.
Principle 4
In-house digital lab.
Our on-site lab uses Exocad design software and dental 3D printers. For implant cases — especially All-on-X — that means surgical guides, provisional teeth, and custom components are designed and produced under our roof, in coordination with the rest of the care.
Principle 5
Care from start to finish.
Diagnosis, planning, surgical care, and final restoration all happen with our team in Eustis. You will work with the same team from your first consultation to your final smile. In the rare circumstance that a particular case is best served by a referral to a specialist colleague — for example, an unusually complex situation that calls for resources beyond what we provide here — Dr. Jackson will say so directly and refer you to a trusted colleague who can provide the level of care your specific case requires.
What an implant case looks like
What to expect
Most implant cases follow the same general arc, though timelines and details vary. Here is what the process typically looks like at Jackson Dentistry.
- 1
Consultation and 3D scan.
At your consultation, we will talk through your goals and concerns, review your medical history, capture a CBCT 3D scan, and examine your mouth carefully. With this information, Dr. Jackson is typically able to determine whether dental implants or the All-on-X procedure are right for you, and walk through your options at the same appointment. Before you leave, you will have a clear understanding of the recommended treatment plan and the cost of your care. If additional records are needed to finalize the plan, we capture them at a follow-up visit.
- 2
Three-dimensional plan.
Dr. Jackson designs your implant plan in Blue Sky Plan software, beginning with the final restoration and working backward to determine the ideal implant position. Most plans are completed within a day or two — sometimes three for complex cases — and you will see the plan before any treatment begins.
- 3
Guided placement.
On the day of your procedure, your implant is placed using the digital plan we built together — either with a custom surgical guide Dr. Jackson designed and 3D-printed for your case, or with the Yomi robotic system for full-arch cases. Many cases are flapless, which means smaller surgical sites and a smoother recovery.
- 4
Healing.
Implants need time to integrate with the bone — usually three to six months. For All-on-X cases, you will receive a fixed provisional prosthesis the day after surgery. For front-tooth single implants, you will receive a custom temporary crown the day after surgery.
- 5
Final restoration.
Once healed, we place the final crown, bridge, or full-arch prosthesis designed for your bite and your smile.
Frequently asked
Common questions
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
Most adults with missing or failing teeth are candidates. The CBCT scan tells us whether your bone is sufficient for an implant — and if more bone is needed, we can often build it with bone grafting and PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) before or during the procedure. Dr. Jackson has successfully treated many patients who had been told elsewhere that they had insufficient bone for dental implants. The only way to know for sure is a consultation.
Are implants painful?
Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the procedure is. Modern anesthesia is highly effective, and we frequently provide oral sedation for patients who would like a more relaxed experience. Robotic guidance and well-designed surgical guides allow for smaller, more precise surgical sites — many cases are flapless, which significantly reduces post-procedure discomfort.
How long do implants last?
Dental implants have a long-term success rate of approximately 97% over a 10-year period when placed and maintained properly. With good hygiene and regular checkups, most implants last for decades.
How much do implants cost?
The cost depends on the specific care required — single-tooth implants, multi-tooth implants, and full-arch All-on-X cases differ significantly in scope. We provide a clear understanding of the cost of your care at the conclusion of your consultation appointment, before you leave the office. We also offer financing options including CareCredit and our in-house Membership Savings Plan.
Why is technology-guided implant placement better than placement without guidance?
Both surgical guides and robotic guidance produce significantly more accurate implant placement than freehand surgery. They also help protect critical anatomical structures throughout the procedure. Better placement contributes to better long-term outcomes.
Ready to talk about your case?
Every implant journey starts the same way — a conversation and a 3D scan. We will walk through your options honestly, with no pressure, and you will have a clear treatment plan and cost information before you leave the consultation.
