Dr. Melanson works with a number of specialists-oral surgeons and periodontists who will place the actual implants. After the placement of the implant by the specialist, Dr. Melanson can restore the implant. Implants can be used to replace single teeth, act as abutments for bridges, or serve as abutments to hold in dentures or partial dentures.
