I had a great experience with Dr. Mattox for my dental implant. He is a highly skilled surgeon who made the entire process quick and mostly painless. It’s clear he’s an expert in his field despite being a younger doctor. The facility looks great and very up to date with the latest technology. I felt very comfortable in his care!

Dr. Mattox removed my teenage son’s wisdom teeth yesterday. Great modern office and staff - very efficient and caring. Everything went smoothly and he is recovering nicely with minimal swelling and pain. Very clear postop instructions he is following to the letter. He called today (Saturday) to check on him. All in all a great experience - highly recommend.

Dr. Maddox and his team are so awesome. His office is very clean and relaxing. I was really surprised when he called and checked to see how I was recovering. I highly recommend Innova for your dental needs.

So glad I chose this place. I am very impressed with my service. Dexter and his team were amazing, friendly, very professional and clean. I felt very comfortable with them! The healing process was so easy. I’m nearly pain free after having all 4 wisdom teeth pulled at the same time. I cannot thank yall enough!

About Innova Dental Implant Institute
Innova Dental Implant Institute is an oral and maxillofacial surgery practice at 149 Scranton Connector in Brunswick, Georgia, founded by Dr. Dexter Mattox, DMD, MD. The practice serves patients from across the Golden Isles region and was started with the goal of providing a high standard of oral surgical care locally, so patients do not need to travel to larger cities. Its main focus is dental implant surgery, from single tooth implants and implant-supported crowns or bridges to full-mouth restoration through its InnovaSmile All-on-X program. The practice also offers wisdom teeth extractions and general oral surgery, and provides preparatory procedures such as bone grafting and sinus lifts when needed for implant support.
Innova offers both traditional titanium implants and metal-free zirconia implants, an option the practice describes as suited to patients with metal sensitivities or those who prefer a holistic approach. The implant process begins with a Virtual Care Coordination Session held entirely online, where the team reviews your concerns and medical history and explains treatment options before your first office visit. The practice emphasizes technology in treatment planning, listing three-dimensional cone beam imaging, guided and navigational implant surgery, intraoral scanning, 3D printing, platelet-rich fibrin, and photogrammetry among the tools it uses. Payment plans and full-arch eligibility information are available on the practice website, and the office can be reached by phone or text.
