DIRECT Arch Implants
Dental Implants for Restorative Excellence and Complete Transformation
The prosthodontists at Advanced Dental Solutions (ADS) know how important it is for you to stay involved in your patients’ treatment process. That’s why they’ve developed a new full-arch implant partnership model called DIRECT Arch Implants. With DIRECT Arch Implants, you can utilize the expertise of ADS to provide your patients with comprehensive and precise prosthetic-driven implant placement, while remaining in control of the final restorative phase. It’s a win-win solution for both you and your patients!
