Did You Know? Parkway Prosthodontics is Leading the Way in Subperiosteal Implants in North Florida
When it comes to dental implants, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach. Many patients face unique challenges in finding the right implant solution, particularly those who have experienced bone loss and may not be candidates for traditional implants. That’s where Parkway Prosthodontics steps in as North Florida’s only provider of subperiosteal implants—a specialized option that provides stability, comfort, and a natural look for patients needing a custom implant solution.
What Are Subperiosteal Implants?
Subperiosteal implants are an innovative alternative to conventional implants, designed specifically for patients who have insufficient bone density in the jaw to support traditional implant posts. Unlike traditional implants, which require substantial jawbone support, subperiosteal implants sit on top of the bone, under the gum. This approach allows patients who may have been turned away due to bone loss to still receive secure, reliable implants and restore their smile confidently.
These implants are custom-made to conform precisely to the contours of each patient’s jaw, offering a unique fit and stability that traditional implants can’t achieve in cases of bone loss. For many, this approach is life-changing, as it opens the door to implant solutions previously unavailable to them.
Why Parkway Prosthodontics?
At Parkway Prosthodontics, we’re proud to be the only provider in North Florida with the expertise and capability to offer subperiosteal implants. This specialized procedure requires not only advanced technology but also an experienced team with extensive training in custom implant solutions.

Our facility is equipped with state-of-the-art imaging and fabrication technology, allowing us to design each subperiosteal implant with precision tailored to each patient’s anatomy.
Who Can Benefit from Subperiosteal Implants?
Subperiosteal implants are ideal for patients who may not be candidates for traditional implants due to:
Severe Bone Loss: Often a result of long-term tooth loss or certain health conditions, low bone density in the jaw can limit options for traditional implants. Subperiosteal implants offer an alternative by anchoring on top of the bone rather than inside it.
Avoiding Bone Grafting: Many patients with low bone density are recommended for bone grafting before receiving traditional implants. For those who wish to avoid the additional procedures associated with bone grafting, subperiosteal implants are a great option.
Faster Solution for Missing Teeth: While bone grafting and traditional implants can require months of healing, subperiosteal implants often allow for quicker treatment and a faster path to a full smile.
The Subperiosteal Implant Process at Parkway Prosthodontics
At Parkway Prosthodontics, the journey to subperiosteal implants begins with a comprehensive consultation. During this visit, Dr. Ryan and our team will conduct an in-depth evaluation, including 3D imaging, to assess your jawbone and discuss the benefits and expectations of subperiosteal implants. We focus on delivering a solution that’s comfortable, natural-looking, and durable, ensuring you regain both the function and confidence that a full smile provides.
The implant itself is designed using precise digital scans of your jaw, allowing for a customized fit that maximizes stability and comfort. Once ready, the implant is carefully positioned on the jawbone. Over time, your gum tissue will heal around the implant, creating a strong foundation for dental restorations.
Why Choose Subperiosteal Implants?
Subperiosteal implants offer distinct advantages for individuals with significant bone loss. Unlike traditional implants, they eliminate the need for additional bone-grafting procedures, making the process quicker and often less invasive. They also provide long-term stability for bridges or dentures, reducing the risk of movement and enhancing comfort and confidence in daily life.
