Why Choose Dr. Bingham
With a three-year periodontal residency after dental school and an additional one-year advanced implant fellowship, Dr. Christopher Bingham is uniquely qualified to deliver superior implant treatments. He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology, a member of the Academy of Osseointegration, and has extensive experience in placing dental implants.
Dr. Bingham places “immediate implants” whenever possible. Immediate implants are placed at the same time that your tooth is taken out to not only reduce the number of surgical procedures and therefore cost, but to also lessen the amount of time you will be without a tooth. He is also one of only a handful of surgeons in Austin that place zirconia dental implants, also known as ceramic implants.
Traditionally, dental implants were placed using only basic x-rays for guidance. The dentist would review the two-dimensional x-rays and then place the implant “free-hand.” Many general dentists, who often only place a handful of implants each year, still use this traditional approach. Advances in 3D imaging and robotics have made a far more accurate and personalized approach possible. With an in-house 3D CBCT and YOMI® robotic guidance system, Dr. Bingham offers the most advanced, accurate, and optimal tooth-replacement option in the Austin area to restore the beauty and function of your smile.
Unlike medical referrals, you do not need a referral to see a dental specialist. Schedule your complimentary implant consult with Dr. Bingham today. Trust your smile to an expert. No referral needed!

Dr. Bingham and Council Oak Perio came referred to me, and in turn I’m happy to refer them to you. After a root canal didn’t do the trick, it was determined I needed the tooth extracted and an implant placed. The initial consult with Dr. Bingham was a pleasant one. I was still frustrated at the fact that I had to have an implant at all because of root resorption, which is the body’s way of eating itself because of trauma to the tooth/root earlier in life – likely from when I had braces. Because of this, I had many questions going into my first consult with Dr. Bingham. He sat with me until ALL of my questions were answered. No rushing off to the next patient. No looking at his watch. He took time to listen, delivered clear, detailed answers, and ensured I knew exactly what the plan was that lie ahead. I opted for a Zirconia implant to keep my mouth/head metal-free. An easy-to-understand treatment plan was presented by the team that included all timelines, codes, fees, and out-of-pocket expenses. The procedures went smoothly as expected. This staff was professional and caring from first call to last appointment.
