ROBERT CARIMI, DDS – CHARLESTON, SC.

COMPLETE IMPLANT PROCESS

from start to finish

Dr. Robert Carimi and our team are passionate about helping our patients experience the life-changing benefits of dental implants. We know firsthand the impact permanent tooth replacement with dental implants has on patients, and are pleased to offer a minimally invasive, personalized approach to helping patients overcome failing and missing teeth.

As a one-stop location for comprehensive implant dentistry, we can complete all phases of your implant procedure in our state-of-the-art practice, whether you need single dental implants, full arch dental implants, or implant-supported dentures to restore your smile. From your initial consultation to the final restoration of your dental implants in Charleston, SC, you can expect to enjoy a comfortable, positive experience!

FIRST VISIT

Dr. Carimi offers a complimentary implant consultation, to help you learn if dental implants are right for your tooth replacement needs. We take CT scans to gain a clear picture of your oral health, and present implant treatment options best suited for your smile. Our implant coordinator also reviews your financial responsibility for treatment and discusses convenient payment options for care.

SECOND VISIT

Once we have decided on the type of dental implant procedure ideal for your smile, we take digital x-rays of treatment sites and impressions of your upper and lower arches. These impressions and x-rays will be used to create surgical guides that greatly enhance predictability, stability, and precision when placing dental implants. At this visit, we also discuss options for sedation dentistry and review any final details of your treatment before implant surgery begins.

THIRD VISIT

This is the day of implant surgery! Before we get started, Dr. Carimi administers sedation dentistry (if chosen) and thoroughly anesthetizes treatment sites. He uses the CHROME™ guided implant surgery system to precisely position your dental implants in exact locations within your jawbone. Once your dental implants have been surgically placed, we attach a temporary restoration to serve oral function and esthetics until your implant sites have fully healed and integrated with the bone (typically two to three months for single dental implants and four to six months for full arch cases). Dr. Carimi performs a follow-up the next day to check your comfort and recovery from surgery.

FOURTH VISIT

At the fourth and final implant visit, we finish your procedure by attaching your permanent implant restoration (crown, full-arch prosthetic, or implant-supported denture) in place. Dr. Carimi securely affixes your replacement teeth to your dental implants, checks your bite for comfort, and reviews homecare instructions for keeping your dental implants and surrounding tissue healthy and in top shape.

SMILE RESTORATION

After My Car Accident

“My car accident was painful, but more than that, the way my teeth were damaged, I lost all my confidence. I never wanted to smile or go out until I luckily found Dr. Carimi… he changed all that.”

PORCELAIN VENEERS

I’m Smiling Again

“I had a little black triangle or space in between my front teeth that always made it look like I had a black pepper stuck in between my teeth. As a dental hygienist, having a nice smile is really important, so I asked Dr. Carimi to help improve my smile.”

IMPLANTS AND CROWNS

I Love My Smile
