My name is Dr. Richard Valera, and I serve at the Implant Center of Miami, specializing in dental implants and cosmetic dentistry. My career was profoundly influenced by a deep interest in the mechanical simplicity and biological integration of dental implants, an area that perfectly combines the technical with the personal touch in dentistry.

Dental implants, in their essence, are screws that integrate with the bone. This process is followed by the addition of an abutment and a crown, creating a strong and natural-looking replacement for missing teeth. This method ensures that we don't have to alter the adjacent healthy teeth, preserving more of the patient's natural structure. From single tooth replacements to more complex solutions like implant-supported bridges and the All-on-X procedure for full arch restoration, the possibilities with dental implants are vast and varied.

The All-on-X procedure, a focus area of our practice, uses four to six implants to support a full arch, distributing forces evenly and ensuring long-term success. This approach, among others, exemplifies our commitment to restoring not just smiles but confidence and functionality for our patients.

For anyone considering dental implants or seeking to understand their options, we're here to guide you through the process. At the Implant Center of Miami, we customize the implant journey to meet individual needs, employing state-of-the-art technology and techniques to ensure the best outcomes.
