We are a specialized oral and maxillofacial surgical office managed by Bruce A. Huberman, DMD, specializing primarily in the placement of dental implants.
Welcome to The Center for Implant Surgery, managed and operated by Dr. Bruce A. Huberman, a Diplomate of the American Board of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. He attended Clark University where he obtained a BA in Biology. He then attended UMDNJ Dental School followed by 1-year residency in Hospital Dentistry at Bellevue Hospital. This was followed by a 4-year residency in Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery at University Hospital in Newark (state trauma center) . Following this up with an AO Fellowship in Basel, Switzerland, performing advanced techniques in craniofacial and trauma surgery. Dr. Huberman's main focus is now replacing missing teeth through the process of implant surgery.
For most patients, the placement of dental implants involves two surgical procedures. First, implants are placed within your jawbone. For the first three to six months following surgery, the implants are beneath the surface of the gums gradually bonding with the jawbone. You should be able to wear temporary dentures and eat a soft diet during this time. At the same time, your dentist is forming new replacement teeth. After the implant has bonded to the jawbone, the second phase begins. Dr. Huberman will uncover the implants and attach small posts which will act as anchors for the artificial teeth. These posts protrude through the gums. When the artificial teeth are placed these posts will not be seen. The entire procedure usually takes six to eight months. Most patients experience minimal disruption in their daily life.
Our practice performs all forms of oral surgery, however the replacement of missing teeth using implants is our most common procedure. We look forward to treating you as a patient and our consultations for patients with missing teeth are always free.
