ORAL AND MAXILLOFACIAL SURGEON in Deer Park, NY
Missing a tooth changes more than your smile; it changes how you eat, how you speak, and how you feel about yourself every single day. For millions of people, dental implants have become the gold standard for tooth replacement because they don’t just fill the gap; they replicate the full structure of a natural tooth, from root to crown, and deliver results that last decades.
Board Certified Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon Dr. Mohamed El-Ounsi completed his residency as Chief Resident at NYU Langone and Bellevue, one of the most rigorous OMS programs in the country, and holds both a Fellowship with the AAOMS and a Diplomate designation from the ABOMS. Dr. El-Ounsi combines surgical mastery with a genuinely patient-centered approach. As part of our oral surgery practice in Deer Park, NY, we treat every implant case as its own, tailoring each treatment plan to your anatomy, bone quality, and long-term goals.

What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a small titanium post placed directly into the jawbone, where it functions as an artificial tooth root. Once the implant bonds with the surrounding bone through a process called osseointegration, a custom crown is attached on top to restore the full look and function of your natural tooth. The result is a replacement that looks, feels, and performs like the real thing without the slipping or discomfort associated with traditional dentures.
According to research published on the National Institutes of Health’s PubMed Central, long-term clinical success rates for dental implants frequently exceed 95% under optimal conditions, making them one of the most reliably successful procedures in modern dentistry. At Precision OMF Surgery, Dr. El-Ounsi leverages state-of-the-art digital imaging and surgical technology to place implants with a level of precision that maximizes those outcomes for each patient.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Dental Implants?
Most adults who are missing one or more teeth are potential candidates for implants, but a thorough evaluation is always the first step. The ideal candidate has sufficient jawbone density to support the implant and is free from uncontrolled systemic conditions that could interfere with healing.
For patients who have experienced bone loss due to long-term tooth absence or prior extractions, implants may still be possible with preparatory procedures. Our team may recommend bone grafting to rebuild the foundation needed for a stable implant. We also use advanced platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) technology to accelerate healing and support tissue regeneration, a cutting-edge approach Dr. El-Ounsi incorporates to optimize recovery and long-term implant health.
Types of Implants We Place
Dental implant treatment is not one-size-fits-all, and we approach every case accordingly. Depending on your clinical situation, we may recommend one of the following options:
- Single-tooth implants: The most common option, replacing one missing tooth with a titanium post and individual crown
- Immediate implants: Placed the same day as an extraction, reducing the overall timeline and the number of procedures involved
- Full arch rehabilitation: For patients missing most or all of their teeth, implant-supported restorations restore an entire arch in a single treatment plan
After your case is reviewed, Dr. El-Ounsi will walk you through which approach aligns best with your situation. For patients who qualify, immediate implant placement is one of the most sought-after options we offer, delivering a restored smile in significantly less time than traditional sequencing.

Comfort and Sedation During Implant Surgery
Concern about pain is one of the most common reasons patients delay implant treatment and one of the most manageable. Dental implant surgery is performed under local anesthesia, and we offer a full range of sedation options, including IV sedation, to ensure you are comfortable and relaxed throughout the procedure.
For patients with dental anxiety or those undergoing more involved cases, our general anesthesia services allow you to sleep through the procedure entirely. Dr. El-Ounsi holds ACLS and PALS certifications and has extensive training in sedation from his residency at Bellevue Hospital, where IV sedation and implant surgery were central to his clinical focus. Our entire team is trained to manage your care at every level of sedation safely and effectively.
