Pre-Prosthetic Surgery in Key West, FL
Pre-Prosthetic Surgery
The preparation of your mouth before the placement of a prosthesis is referred to as pre-prosthetic surgery. Some patients require minor oral surgical procedures before receiving a partial or complete denture in order to ensure the maximum level of comfort. A denture sits on the bone ridge, so it is very important that the bone is the proper shape and size. If a tooth needs to be extracted, the underlying bone might be sharp and uneven. For the best fit of a denture, the bone might need to be smoothed or reshaped. Occasionally, excess bone may need to be removed prior to denture insertion.
One or more of the following procedures might need to be performed in order to prepare your mouth for a denture:Bone smoothing and reshapingRemoval of excess boneBone ridge reductionRemoval of excess gum tissueExposure of impacted teeth

How we price
We offer our patients a detailed treatment approach and help them with cost-effective payment solutions
Single Tooth Dental
Implants
A single implant(s) can support a crown to replace just one missing tooth, which is significantly more durable and natural than traditional bridges.
Starting at
$95 Per Month.
Multiple Tooth Dental
Implants
Occasionally, a patient is missing more than one tooth but still has healthy gums and surrounding teeth. In this case, two or more implants are placed, and the crowns are attached, leaving the teeth intact.

Full Mouth Dental
Implants
Patients who need to replace a full upper and/or lower set of teeth can now opt for full mouth implants. Our oral surgeon will place 4 implants and then attach a full arch of teeth.

"My husband was need of an emergency wisdom tooth extraction because the tooth had cracked and the pain was off the scale. Because oral surgeons only come to the island every so often he was going to have to wait over a week for relief. We reached out to Keys Dental Specialists and they were able to accommodate him the next day. They moved mountains to make time for him to relieve his pain. Their office is clean, organized, modern and the entire staff was compassionate and knowledgeable. "
"A terrific Dental experience!!! Prior to my appointment I received a text letting me know what my responsibility would be after insurance which was a very reasonable amount. When you walk into the office you pleasantly greeted by Brittani and Maddie by name. Nellie my hygienist is very friendly and does a great job. Dr Guthrie does a thorough examination and explains everything that may have to be done now or watched out for the future. Overall A++++"
"Hands down the best experience! I was given a same-day appt for my emergency pain. Forms and insurance were all done electronically prior to my visit. The entire office was professional, well organized, efficient and very friendly. They were thorough and well equipped with the latest technology.
