Restore Your Smile with Confidence
Coral Gables Dental Implants
At Elite Smile Dental Center in Coral Gables, we believe that every smile tells a story—one that deserves to be complete, confident, and full of life. For patients who have lost one or more teeth, dental implants offer a life-changing solution that looks, feels, and functions just like natural teeth. Under the care of Dr. Yelisbet Fernandez, affectionately known by her patients as Dr. Yeli, every treatment becomes a personal experience. Her warmth, attention to detail, and genuine compassion transform the dental visit into a journey of trust and comfort.
Our office, located inside BLUME Coral Gables at 1501 SW 37 Avenue, Suite B, Miami, FL 33145, was designed to feel more like a home than a clinic. Here, patients become part of a close-knit circle—a family bound by care, respect, and the shared goal of achieving radiant, healthy smiles.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Choosing dental implants at Elite Smile Dental Center means investing in your health, confidence, and long-term well-being. Some of the most significant benefits include:
Natural appearance and feel: Implants mimic the look and function of real teeth.
- Improved chewing and speech: No more slipping dentures or discomfort while eating or talking.
- Long-term durability: With proper care, dental implants can last decades—often a lifetime.
- Preservation of bone and facial structure: Implants stimulate the jawbone and prevent bone loss, maintaining your natural facial contours.
- No alteration of neighboring teeth: Unlike bridges, implants don’t require grinding down adjacent healthy teeth.
- Renewed confidence: Patients often describe their results as “getting their life back.”
Dr. Yeli approaches each case with artistry and precision, tailoring every implant to the patient’s facial structure, bite, and smile design goals.
Dental implants are small titanium posts that act as artificial tooth roots, providing a stable foundation for replacement teeth such as crowns, bridges, or dentures. Once placed into the jawbone, they integrate naturally through a process called osseointegration, allowing them to become part of your bone structure. This means your new tooth will not only look real—it will feel and function like it too.
Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants do not shift, click, or rely on other teeth for support. They are a permanent, secure solution that restores both aesthetics and confidence.

What to Expect During Your Dental Implant Treatment
From the very first consultation, our team ensures you feel understood and supported. The process begins with a detailed examination, including digital X-rays or 3D imaging to evaluate your bone structure and oral health. Dr. Fernandez will take the time to explain every step—there’s never a rush, never a feeling of being “just another patient.”
Consultation and planning: We’ll discuss your goals, review your dental and medical history, and design a personalized treatment plan.
- Implant placement: The titanium post is gently positioned in the jawbone under local anesthesia or sedation. Most patients report minimal discomfort.
- Healing and integration: Over several months, the implant naturally fuses with your bone to create a stable foundation.
- Restoration phase: Once healed, a custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is attached to the implant—crafted to match your natural teeth perfectly.
Throughout the process, you’ll be treated like family. Dr. Yeli and her team make sure every appointment is filled with kindness, care, and the feeling that your smile truly matters.
