Dental Implants

Christopher Sprout, DDS, approaches dental implants as more than a replacement for a visible tooth. An implant replaces the root as well, which is what protects the surrounding bone and gives the result its strength. That distinction shapes how Christopher Sprout plans every implant case.

He begins with a plan: assessing the bone, the bite, and how a new tooth will fit with its neighbors, using imaging to see what sits below the surface. When the bone needs rebuilding first, he addresses that foundation before placing the implant, so the result has something solid to hold it.

From single implants to full-arch restorations, Christopher Sprout designs the final tooth around the bite, so it takes the force of chewing the way a natural tooth would. He treats the healing process as part of the treatment rather than a delay, because an implant placed carefully and allowed to integrate can serve a patient for a very long time. For patients in Denver and across Colorado, he treats implant care as a step-by-step process with a durable result at the end.

The Implant Process

Planning the Case

Before any implant is placed, Christopher Sprout examines the site, checks bone and gum health, and uses imaging to build a complete picture. The plan is where much of the outcome is decided.

Foundation First

When bone needs rebuilding before an implant can be placed, Christopher Sprout addresses that foundation first. Grafting and sinus procedures make implants possible where they otherwise would not be.

Placing & Restoring

The implant post goes in first, then time for integration, then the final crown — shaped and shaded to match. Christopher Sprout designs the crown around the bite so it works the way a natural tooth would.
