I just wanted to say how grateful I am personally for finding them. I was so anxious and wanted one thing, but was told the truth. Thanks for that. Alex is definitely an ambassador for them! Thank you ladies, and especially Dr. Vellis he's extremely patient and kind.

I came to this office for a second opinion and, even though it was just a consultation, I was extremely impressed. The doctor took a significant amount of time to speak with me, answered all of my questions thoroughly, and gave me his honest opinion without any pressure. The consultation was free, which made his kindness and professionalism stand out even more. He was knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely seemed to care.

The doctor is fantastic. The staff is marvelous. Finally, there’s a doctor that cares for the patient and the being of the patient not so much about the money even though we have to pay for the services but he’s the best he’s worth every penny or more very caring people I highly recommend them and I was in the field for 55 years myself. He’s young so he’s gonna be around for a long time. I highly highly recommend them. They’re at 10 and more star

St. Petersburg Dental Implant Center is a dental practice at 5637 49th Street North in St. Petersburg, Florida, that focuses specifically on dental implants rather than offering them as one service among many. The practice describes its approach as treating the patient, not just their teeth, and emphasizes doing implant treatment the right way the first time. Its featured treatments include full mouth dental implants for patients missing many or all of their teeth, single dental implants to replace an individual cracked or missing tooth, and zirconia fixed bridges as another permanent option for missing teeth. The website also covers removable full and partial dentures and a comparison of fixed versus removable options to help patients weigh their choices.
Alongside implant placement, the practice provides oral surgery services including bone grafting, tooth extractions, wisdom tooth removal, treatment of failing dental implants, emergency dentistry, and sedation dentistry. The website highlights an in-house dental lab staffed by dental lab technicians, offers information on insurance and financing, and shares before and after photos and video patient stories. The practice's website also addresses common concerns such as missing teeth, bone loss, and loose dentures, and notes that consultations include imaging and a medical review to determine whether a patient is a candidate for implants. The office is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
The practice's dental implant specialist is Dr. Jimmy Vellis, who has been practicing dentistry since 2007. According to the practice's website, he earned a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from the University of Virginia and his dental doctorate from Howard University College of Dentistry. After eight years in general dentistry in Tampa, he completed a three year postgraduate residency in periodontics and dental implants at the University of Kentucky College of Dentistry, where he served as chief resident. The site states that he has placed thousands of dental implants, holds certification for administering intravenous conscious sedation, and is trained in Advanced Cardiac Life Support. He has also volunteered at Good Samaritan clinics and traveled on dental mission trips to Ghana and Bolivia.
