Dental Implants in Dr. Gutt’s Miami Beach Office

Dental Implants Enhance Quality of Life

Dr. Mark Gutt routinely places dental implants in his offices in Miami Beach and Key West, Florida. Replacing missing teeth with dental implants has many advantages:

Natural look and function

Dental implants enable the support of crowns to look and function like natural teeth. Patients can have a beautiful smile and they can eat the foods they enjoy. Unlike conventional dentures, replacement teeth secured by implants do not slip or move around in the mouth.

Long lasting

With proper home care and regular visits to the dentist and Dr. Gutt’s office, dental implants can last for decades—even a lifetime.

They can replace one tooth or many teeth

If you are missing one tooth, some of your teeth, or all of your teeth, implant dentistry is a state-of-the art solution. For patients who are missing an entire arch of teeth, either upper or lower, there are various options. Some implant-supported dentures are fixed in place and can only be removed by a dentist. Others snap in place securely and can be taken out by the patient for cleaning. Dr. Gutt will discuss your options with you.

The procedure is completed in the office using local anesthetic

Dental implants are replacement tooth roots that are placed in the jaw. This procedure is routinely completed in Dr. Gutt’s office. Once the implants are fully integrated into the jawbone, the patient’s dentist attaches replacement teeth to the implant fixtures. Patients often comment that implant treatment is a very easy and comfortable process.

Robotic Technology

Dr. Gutt is on the forefront of new technology. In 2021, he became the first periodontist in Miami Beach and Miami-Dade County to introduce robotic-assisted dental implant placement. This advanced system, called YOMI®, allows Dr. Gutt to accurately prepare sites for and place dental implants with an even higher degree of precision and accuracy. Patients are amazed by the technology. Throughout the treatment, Dr. Gutt makes all the decisions and performs the procedure. The robot provides him with visual, auditory, and touch feedback through the use of sophisticated computer software that is seamlessly integrated with an advanced 3D digital x-ray system.
