About Our Practice

Dr. Bartee has over 16 years of experience in implant dentistry. As a practice that is implant-focused, we work with a variety of implant systems and approaches in dealing with complex restorative problems.

We strive to stay at the forefront of technology while providing care in a safe, predictable, and comfortable manner. We are committed to education and promotion of the benefits of implant dentistry through interaction with our professional colleagues. Our philosophy is that implant dentistry, while complex, should be "everyday" dentistry and should be considered as a first-line treatment option whenever there are missing teeth or problems with existing dentures or bridges.

If you have been referred to us for consultation, we look forward to your visit. We will begin with a discussion of your concerns and goals in terms of function and esthetics. Next, we will evaluate your remaining natural teeth and bone structure, usually with the aid of a panoramic dental x-ray. With this information, a preliminary treatment plan will be developed and discussed with you and your family dentist. If necessary, Dr. Bartee will meet personally with your dentist to assist in developing this treatment plan.

In the team approach to care, it is important for everyone involved in the process to have a clear vision of the treatment goals, the time required, and the professional fees required to meet these goals. Following the initial consultation, we will develop a written treatment plan listing the necessary surgical procedures, prosthetic procedures, a proposed time-line, and fees for all phases of care.
