Compassionate Care with Expert Precision
Welcome
Welcome to Signature Dental Implants and Oral Surgery! Our team of experienced oral surgeons combines advanced surgical techniques with compassionate care to make your visit as smooth and comfortable as possible. We understand that oral surgery can be an unfamiliar experience, and we are committed to guiding you through each step with personalized attention and expertise.
Why Patients Trust Signature Dental Implants and Oral Surgery
When it comes to selecting a surgeon for you and your family, credentials and expertise matter. As Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, Dr. Taylor, Dr. Christine Shurley and Dr. Patel have had extensive hospital-based training in oral and facial surgery, implant procedures and the administration of anesthesia, as well as countless hours of continuing education and years of experience in private practice.
Experienced Staff
Our practice is truly unique. We have earned the trust and respect of our restorative colleagues, who know they can rely on us to provide exceptional surgical care and optimal treatment outcomes for their patients. Our doctors and staff are committed to creating an experience for our patients that is unlike any they have ever had in healthcare, taking service to another level.

Advanced Technology
Our practice utilizes state-of-the-art technology to maintain a higher standard of care with diagnosis and surgical procedures. 3D imaging gives our surgeons a more detailed view of the mouth, jaws and other anatomical structures, providing more precise placement of dental implants and bone grafts. Digital impressions for implant restorations improve accuracy and reduce treatment time.

Close Collaboration with Restorative Dentists
The true team approach to dental implant treatment involves collaboration between the patient’s dentist and the surgeon to create the ideal, personalized treatment plan that addresses the patients functional and aesthetic needs. This is something that we’ve been doing for over 30 years and thousands of patients in the area have benefitted from our collaborative, team approach to implant treatment.

Emergency Same-Day Implants
Many of our patients have benefitted from our surgeons’ extensive experience with emergency same-day implant procedures, which enable them to remove a damaged or failing tooth and immediately place a dental implant. With fewer steps in the treatment process and quicker results for patients, the anxiety involved with unanticipated tooth loss can be significantly minimized.

Advanced Tools for Optimal Care
Cutting-Edge Tech
Our Cone Beam CT Scanner, the i-CAT FLX is the very latest in dental imaging technology. The robust 3D images are highly accurate and detailed three dimensional views of the patient’s anatomy including bone, root orientation, tooth and nerve relationships, as well as unparallel views of sinus and airway anatomy. The i-CAT FLX provides scans at a significantly lower radiation dosage, often less than a conventional panorex. Having the technology in our office eliminates the inconvenience of sending the patient to an outside imaging center and significantly reduces the cost to the patient.
