ImplantCenter

Dr. Amilton Santos and ImplantCenter

Dr. Amilton Santos leads ImplantCenter with a specialist background in oral rehabilitation, implantology, and periodontics accumulated over more than twenty-five years of practice. This depth of experience is particularly significant in implantology, where the volume and variety of cases treated over a long career provides a clinical foundation for managing complex anatomical situations, bone deficiency, multiple implant placements, and full-arch rehabilitation cases. Periodontic expertise is complementary to implantology, as gum health and bone management are prerequisites for successful implant integration and long-term stability.

The clinic's approach emphasises humanised care, individual patient evaluation, and a focus on natural-looking results — a patient-centred model particularly relevant for patients with dental anxiety, who represent a significant proportion of those who have delayed dental treatment and consequently present with more complex needs when they eventually seek care. The clinic offers a Smile Day service, which provides a comprehensive one-day experience for patients requiring extensive evaluation and treatment planning in a single structured appointment.

Implantology at ImplantCenter spans both single-tooth replacement and complex full-arch rehabilitation cases. Dr. Amilton Santos's combined specialisation in implantology and periodontics is clinically significant: periodontal assessment and treatment is often required before or alongside implant placement, as active gum disease and bone loss at existing teeth can compromise implant sites and long-term outcomes. Managing both specialties in-house allows for coordinated treatment planning that addresses the overall oral environment rather than treating implants in isolation.

Increased Vertical Dimension of Occlusion (DVO/VDO) refers to a full-mouth rehabilitation approach used when the bite height has been reduced — typically through tooth wear, tooth loss, or prolonged untreated problems — to a degree that affects facial appearance, jaw joint health, and function. Restoring the VDO involves carefully rebuilding or repositioning the bite across multiple teeth or the full arch, using crowns, veneers, or overlay prostheses. This is one of the most complex forms of oral rehabilitation and requires comprehensive planning and staged execution by an experienced clinician.

Invisalign clear aligner orthodontics provides alignment correction using a series of removable, transparent plastic trays. ImplantCenter's Invisalign certification indicates that Dr. Amilton Santos has completed the required training and case volume with Align Technology, enabling predictable outcomes in cases suited to the clear aligner modality. Invisalign is increasingly integrated into oral rehabilitation plans where tooth position must be corrected before definitive prosthetic work.
