Amalfitano Center for Dental Implants and Periodontics

The Amalfitano Center for Dental implants and Periodontics, operating under the website MichiganImplantCenter.com and sometimes referred to as Amalfi Smile Center, is a prominent dental clinic located in Traverse City and Cadillac, Michigan. Led by Dr. Joseph Amalfitano, a board-certified periodontist with over 20 years of experience, the center is dedicated to providing comprehensive and advanced periodontal and dental implant care. The clinic specializes in a wide range of services, with a particular focus on dental implant placement and reconstruction, including complex cases. Dr. Amalfitano is widely recognized as the most experienced "Teeth in a Day" and fixed full-arch dental implant provider in Northern Michigan. They utilize an advanced digital workflow, incorporating state-of-the-art technology such as RayFace 3D scanning for precise smile design, Trios Intra-Oral Scanners for detailed digital impressions, and ICAM Implant Registration for accurate implant placement. Their in-house milling capabilities often allow for temporary teeth delivery within 24 hours. Beyond implants, the Amalfitano Center offers a full spectrum of periodontal treatments, including gum disease management (scaling and root planing, osseous surgery, and LANAP® - Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure), gum graft surgery, and bone grafting. They are also one of the few practices globally equipped to perform Zygomatic implants for patients with severe bone loss, previously considered untreatable. Dr. Amalfitano is notable for being one of the few surgeons who manages both the surgical and restorative phases of full arch reconstruction in-house, ensuring complete control over the patient's treatment journey. The clinic prides itself on providing a caring and comfortable environment, with a strong emphasis on patient education and personalized treatment planning. They accept new patients, including those without referrals, and offer financing and insurance options.
