Tooth Replacement
A Long-Term Solution. Planned to Last.
Dental implants replace missing teeth at the root — restoring function, appearance, and long-term oral health. Campo Dentistry provides implant placement and restoration in Uptown New Orleans.
What a Dental Implant Is
A titanium post that does what a root once did.
A dental implant is a titanium post placed in the jawbone, where it supports a crown, a bridge, or a denture. It replaces the tooth root itself — not just the visible part of the tooth.
Replacing a missing tooth matters beyond appearance. Left alone, the jawbone beneath the gap begins to lose density, neighboring teeth can shift out of position, and the bite changes to compensate — often putting strain on teeth that were never meant to carry it.
Placement and Restoration — In One Practice
Every implant, digitally planned before we begin.
Campo Dentistry handles both implant placement and implant restoration — the surgical and the restorative side of the same treatment. Position, angle, and depth are mapped as part of a digital treatment plan, informed by 3D CT scanning, before the operatory.
Having both stages handled by the same practice, and the same doctor, means one continuous plan for your case — Dr. Campo is a Diplomate of the International Dental Implant Association (IDIA).

Are You a Candidate?
It starts with an evaluation, not a checklist.
Candidacy for implants generally comes down to a few things: enough bone to support the implant, overall health that supports healing, and one or more missing teeth that need replacing. Where the jawbone has thinned, bone grafting can rebuild the site so an implant has the foundation it needs.
Every case is different, which is why the conversation starts with an exam and a digital scan — not a guarantee made before you've been seen.
Implants vs. Other Options
Understanding the decision, not just the procedure.
Campo Dentistry offers implants, bridges, and dentures — the right choice depends on your bone health, the number of teeth involved, and what you want long term.
Implants
Replace the root as well as the tooth. Anchored in the jawbone; don't rely on neighboring teeth for support.
Bridges
Span a gap by anchoring to the teeth on either side of it. A well-established option when those neighboring teeth are healthy.
Dentures
Removable, and can replace several teeth or a full arch. Often the right fit when implants aren't the right fit yet.
