Dental Implants
Dental implants are permanent, natural-looking solutions to replace missing or non-restorable teeth, planned with precision using advanced diagnostics and surgical expertise.
When preserving a natural tooth is not predictable, we carefully plan for implant placement, including same-day implants in appropriate cases.
We also evaluate and treat existing implants affected by infection or bone loss, with a focus on long-term stability and function.
Implant success depends on careful evaluation of bone, gums, bite, and long-term forces. As periodontists, our training focuses on these supporting structures.
We use advanced diagnostics and surgical planning to determine:
- implant position
- bone quality and volume
- gum health and stability
In select cases, it may be possible to place an implant at the same time as a tooth extraction. This decision is based on clinical findings and long-term predictability.
Same-day placement is not suitable for every patient and is carefully evaluated.
We recognise that implant procedures can cause anxiety. Sedation options are routinely available, and comfort is addressed at every stage of care.
Patients are encouraged to share questions or concerns so we can tailor the experience accordingly.
After implant placement, healing typically occurs over several months. We coordinate closely with the referring restorative dentist for final restoration, ensuring a seamless process.
Testimonial
The team was professional and efficient, and everything was straightforward. Healing has been quick with no issues so far.
Would definitely recommend.
I came in for gum recession treatment with a lot of dental anxiety, but Dr. Hedge immediately put me at ease by listening to my concerns and clearly explaining everything.
The day of surgery, she and her staff went above and beyond to make me comfortable, even suggesting I bring a blanket and headphones. When I had a small issue after hours, Dr. Hedge responded quickly, even though it was the weekend.
It’s rare to find a dental office that combines such skill with genuine kindness, but this one truly does.
I can go on. I asked for an estimate on a deep cleaning and was told about $1000.00. I didn’t want a guess, I wanted an estimate. So I didn’t schedule the appointment.
Finally I payed for services rendered, but found out later that they filed a claim with my insurance company who eventually paid my bill in full. It took about six weeks for them to finally reimburse me.
I did a lot of research to find a periodontist that met my expectations I thought Dr Rachana was the right one. I was wrong. I’m never going back.

Full Mouth Dental Implants UT - Restoring Function and Confidence
For patients in Utah living with extensive tooth loss, full mouth dental implants UT offer the most durable, natural, and permanent solution available in modern dentistry. At MVPerio, our board-certified periodontists, Dr. Dan Thunell and Dr. Rachna Hegde, have extensive specialist training in implant placement, ensuring every case is approached with the surgical precision and clinical judgment it demands. Full mouth implants replace the entire set of upper or lower teeth using a fixed, non-removable prosthesis anchored to carefully placed implant posts. The result is a smile that functions, feels, and looks like your natural teeth without the limitations of conventional dentures.
All on 4 Dental Implants UT - Maximum Support with Minimal Implants
The all on 4 dental implants UT technique is one of the most effective full-arch solutions available, using just four strategically angled implants to support a complete fixed arch. This approach is particularly well-suited to patients who have experienced some degree of bone loss, as the angled posterior implants are designed to maximise contact with available bone often eliminating the need for prior bone grafting. At MVPerio, our periodontists evaluate each patient individually to determine whether All on 4, All on 6, or another implant configuration will deliver the best long-term outcome for their anatomy and goals.
Same Day and Partial Implant Options
MVPerio also offers same day dental implants for eligible patients, a protocol that allows a provisional restoration to be placed on the day of surgery, so you leave the clinic with teeth rather than waiting months for your final prosthesis. For patients missing only one or several teeth, partial dental implants provide a targeted, bone-preserving solution that integrates seamlessly with your existing dentition. During your consultation, our specialists will review your imaging, assess your bone volume and gum health, and recommend the most appropriate implant pathway for your specific situation.
