At Viewpoint, a cutting edge research and teaching center for dental medicine, Drs. Thomas Balshi and Glenn Wolfinger, Directors of Prosthodontics Intermedica, debuted implant dentistry’s newest and most patient-friendly protocol for healthy smiles, Teeth In An Hour. Nine doctors from across the globe experienced computer generated technology that permits a patient with not a single remaining tooth to have a fully functional and esthetic third set of teeth in less than an hour.

Local periodontist, David Davenport, participated in this training, following the new product launch at Nobel Biocare’s World Conference in Las Vegas last year. The new surgical technology, which begins with a brief but comprehensive scan, permits the doctor to accomplish virtual surgery on a computer model, thus creating optimum guided surgical technique, minimally invasive for the patient.

Dr. Davenport will be among the first in this area certified in the Nobel Biocare process of guided surgery. His clinical facility is located in Peachtree City.

Peachtree Periodontics and Dental Implants, LLC, specializes in treating patients with missing and diseased teeth, and offers them advanced treatment options for tooth replacement and gum regeneration. Peachtree Periodontics has offices in Peachtree City, Ga. and Douglasville, Ga. Dr. Davenport has been published internationally and lectures both locally and nationally. He is also a member of the American Academy of Periodontology and the Academy of Osseointegration, and dedicates a significant portion of his time to advanced dental implant education so that his practice may provide patients with the most comprehensive and up-to-date treatment available in the United States.
