Oral Implants and Reconstructive Dentistry

Oral Implants and Reconstructive Dentistry Welcome to OIRD! Our doctors have the skill and knowledge necessary to treat any dental need. With OIRD, "state-of-the-art" is anything but a cliché.

Since 1964 the Doctors and Staff of Oral Implant & Reconstructive Dentistry (OIRD) have dedicated themselves to improving the dental health and in turn, the quality of life for patients in Central Ohio and beyond. Our Patient-First approach applies state-of-the-art knowledge, skill and tools in the performance of some of the most challenging and technically difficult dental procedures available; i

ncluding Dental Implant placements, Restorations and Sinus and Bone Augmentations. We also apply this same philosophy and skill in the performance of more "general" dentistry services including TMJ treatments, Cosmetic procedures and dental cleaning and maintenance. At OIRD, our mission is to provide patients with the absolute best possible care while they enjoy the best possible experience leading them to their best possible dental health outcome. Our doctors are Dental Implant pioneers and leading educators who help advance the field's technology, procedures and practices through research, FDA studies and the education of thousands of other dentists through their Midwest Implant Institute. Since 1969 our Doctors have placed over 20,000 dental implants and remain sought after lecturers in the Dental Implant field.

Wearing a denture but wish it felt more secure? Here's how implants can change that!

There are a few different levels, and each one gives you more stability, more retention, and more freedom with the foods you love.

🔹 Good: Two implants that snap your denture into place so it stops shifting and sliding
🔹 Better: More implants and a bar attachment that holds everything even more securely
🔹 Best: A full bar system that actually lifts the prosthetic off your gums, so you get the closest thing to how natural teeth feel

Salads, steaks, corn on the cob. Each level brings more of those back to your plate. We can't perfectly replicate your natural teeth, but we get closer and closer with each step, and we'll meet you right where you are.

Save this one for later so you have it when you're ready to explore your options. 📌

Did you know? Your implants are only as strong as the gums supporting them 🙌 Before dental implants can do their job, your gums need to be ready to support them. That's where gum grafting comes in.

If you've lost some of that original gum tissue, we can take tissue from the roof of your mouth and move it right where it's needed. Your body does the rest, healing and regenerating tissue just as it naturally was. Think of it as laying the groundwork so your implants have the strongest, healthiest foundation possible 💪

Wondering if your gums are ready for implants? Let’s get in touch and we'll walk you through exactly where things stand!

Wishing a very Happy Father’s Day to Dr. Duke and Dr. Rob Heller!

These are the moments that really tell the story — not the big milestones, just the everyday stuff. Pool days, holding your kids, watching them grow up right in front of you… and then one day, they’ve got kids of their own 🥹 💕

OIRD was built by a father and carried on by another. And now we’re lucky enough to see that next generation growing up around us too!

Hope all the dads out there have a great day filled with all their favorite things!

Flashback Friday, Midwest Implant Institute edition! 🙌

A look back at hands-on teaching days with Dr. Duke and Dr. Rob Heller — walking through techniques chairside, guiding every step, and sharing the kind of real-world knowledge you only gain from years of experience.

Through the MII, they’ve spent years training dentists from across the country in implant placement, focusing on precision, thoughtful planning, and long-term success!

Pretty special to look back on moments like these and the impact they’ve had on so many teams… and even more patients 🫶
