The Lehigh Valley's premier center for dental implants

Welcome to The Implant Center at St. Luke’s OMS, a state-of-the-art facility in Bethlehem dedicated exclusively to the art and science of dental implantology and full mouth restoration. We are not a general surgery practice; we are a specialized center of excellence focused on one thing: creating beautiful, lasting smiles with the most advanced technology available today. If you are seeking the highest standard of care for tooth replacement, from a single tooth to a full arch restoration, you have found the right place.

Experience the difference at St. Luke’s OMS

Our philosophy is that modern dental implant surgery is a blend of surgical precision, artistic vision, and cutting-edge technology. It’s about more than just replacing a tooth; it’s about restoring your confidence, your ability to enjoy food, and improving your standard of life. Led by Dr. Wayne J. Saunders, a pioneer in robotic-assisted surgery, our expert surgical team is committed to providing a patient experience that is as comfortable and seamless as the results.

Implant-related procedures at St. Luke’s OMS

We focus exclusively on implant-related procedures to provide the most specialized care possible.

  • Single & Full Arch Dental Implants: This is the gold standard for replacing one or more missing teeth. A dental implant is a titanium post that acts as a new tooth root, providing a strong, stable foundation for a natural-looking crown.
  • Bone Grafting for ImplantsSufficient bone structure is crucial for implant success. Our team performs advanced bone grafting surgery to create a solid foundation for your future implants, ensuring their long-term stability.
  • Teeth in a Day: St. Luke’s OMS delivers full arch dental implants—all in a single day. We prioritize your time.

Teeth in a day

St. Luke’s OMS teeth in a day service replaces missing teeth with permanent, natural-looking dental implants in just one visit. This same-day full mouth restoration offers a fast, convenient solution for restoring your smile.

3D surgical planning

Using our advanced 3D CT scanner, we create a detailed digital map of your jawbone, existing teeth, and critical anatomy. Our team uses this model to virtually plan the ideal position, depth, and angulation of your dental implant.

Faster recovery

The incredible accuracy of the YOMI® system often allows for a minimally invasive, "flapless" surgical technique. This means less cutting, less swelling, and a significantly faster and more comfortable recovery for you.

A new standard of dental implant precision with YOMI® robotic surgery

The YOMI® robot is the first and only FDA-cleared robotic system specifically for dental surgery. It is not an autonomous robot that performs the surgery on its own. Rather, it is a highly sophisticated, digitally-guided assistant that enhances the surgeon's skill. Think of it as a GPS for the surgical site, providing real-time, multi-sensory guidance that allows for a level of accuracy and control that is simply not possible with the human hand alone. The technology offers many benefits to our patients, including:

  • Unmatched Precision: Ensures your implant is placed in the optimal position for longevity, function, and a beautiful aesthetic result.
  • Enhanced Safety: The system helps the surgeon avoid critical anatomical structures like nerves and sinuses with absolute certainty.
  • Faster, More Comfortable Recovery: The minimally invasive approach leads to less post-operative pain, swelling, and downtime.
  • Peace of Mind: Provides the ultimate confidence knowing your surgery is being performed with the most advanced technology available in dentistry today.
