Dental implants will last for the rest of your life with proper care. This means full-arch implants last a lot longer than traditional dentures.
With full-arch implants, your dentures will be anchored to your jaw bone. This improves their overall stability, and ensures that they will not move or shift when you eat or speak, which is a common issue with traditional dentures.
Full-arch implants use tooth-like materials like porcelain to create a more natural-looking smile, and since your implants are attached to your jaw, things like chewing and biting feel a lot more natural compared to traditional dentures.
After you lose your teeth, your jaw bone will start to deteriorate because it’s no longer being stimulated by biting and chewing. This will happen even if you get traditional dentures. But this is not the case with full-arch implants. The implants will stimulate your jaw bone as you chew and bite, preventing bone loss and keeping your jaw bone healthy and strong.
When Dr. Luis was 7, he moved to the USA from Brazil with his family. His passion to help others, interest in science, and creating things with his hands, led him to pursue dentistry. Dr. Luis met his wife, Dr. Tori while attending a pre-dental conference at the University of South Florida, where he earned his Bachelors degree in Biology. After undergrad, they both applied to dental schools across the country in hopes of attending together. They were both accepted into their top choice, the University of Kentucky College of Dentistry.
Since earning his DMD from the University of Kentucky, Dr. Luis has expanded his implant knowledge through a number of courses such as, Implant Pathway where he helped provide dental care for Veterans in Arizona and was invited back to instruct. He also trained at McCracken Implant Education in Alabama. He was awarded a fellowship from the ICOI (International Congress of Oral Implantologists) and the American Academy of Implant Prosthodontics in 2018.
With his dedication to lifelong learning and compassionate, judgment-free care, you can trust that you are in good hands with Dr. Luis.
Since Kindergarten, Dr. Tori knew that she wanted to become a dentist. Her curiosity for medicine and working with people turned into a passion, which she followed all the way to college.
She graduated from the University of South Florida with a Bachelors in Biology and a Minor in Public Health. She then went on to earn her DMD from the University of Kentucky.
One of Dr. Tori’s favorite things about dentistry is being able to improve a patient’s oral health and emotional well-being through transformative cosmetic work. She is Invisalign certified and offers Botox treatments to help give patients the smiles they’ve always dreamed of. Dr. Tori also loves creating a fun and trusting environment for kids of all ages.
After falling in love with the Knoxville area, Drs. Luis and Tori moved to Farragut to serve the community through dentistry, with a mission to treat every patient like family. They both enjoy hiking with their good boy, Oliver, traveling, spending time with friends and family and being active in their church.
