I was nervous, worried about the pain after and the time to heal. But less than 24hours after I have no pain and a great smile. All of my questions are answered quickly through the messaging service. The team was really great to work with and made me feel welcome.

Amazinggg!!! I had a REALLY bad infection but they got me in and out in no time and gave me every detail. In addition to this I was asked how I was doing every step of the way and never felt this comfortable at any other place! Dr. Incampo, Mrs. Incampo, Haley and every other staff member thank you all!

What can I say about Dr. Incampo and his team? As a Marine cleanliness and organization are very important to me. As a human I like to be treated equal. He and his crew hit all of these above and beyond. They are kind and relaxing and immediately calm your nerves by letting you know that you aren't alone in your search of a new smile. They are also professional when need be and don't hide good or bad news from you. It took me many dentist visits to find the right one and I'm so glad I did. His office, patient room and even the bathroom (yes Dr., I checked there too) are spotless. I hope I can spare you the time with others and give him a chance. You'll be happy you did!

I’ve had a wonderful experience with this orthodontic office! Everyone is friendly and welcoming, and Tella, the office dog, is an added bonus. 🐾 The Dental Monitoring app is a game changer—it’s like having a built-in Invisalign consultant right on your phone, available 24/7. It provides reassurance between visits and reduces the need to schedule in-office progress appointments, making the entire process so much more convenient. And Tiffany is simply the BEST Invisalign concierge! She’s wonderful to work with and makes the experience that much better. Between the friendly team, innovative technology, and personal touches, this office gets five stars from me. Highly recommend!

Smile Design, Dr. Grosso, and Tiffani have changed my life. Getting a bite plate was the best decision I’ve ever made. I no longer have pain, sleep better, and bite has been corrected. I honestly can’t sleep without the bite plate because it’s so comfortable. Thank you again!! :)

I help patients restore and enhance their smiles through cosmetic, restorative, and implant dentistry — blending science, artistry, and expertise to achieve the smile they’ve always wanted.

Charleston Living
Meet your specialist

What is a prosthodontist?

A prosthodontist is a dental specialist with years of advanced training focused on restoring and replacing teeth. Prosthodontists are often called the “architects of dentistry” because they plan how each tooth, implant and bite fits together before treatment begins.

For patients of Dr. Paolo Incampo, DMD, that means one doctor plans the implant, designs the tooth it supports, and checks that your bite works comfortably. No referral is required.

Specialty services
Signature treatment

Full-arch dental implants.

What “full arch” means

An arch is the full row of teeth along your upper or lower jaw. Full-arch implants replace that entire row with a fixed set of teeth, supported by a small number of implants.

For patients who have lost most of their teeth, or whose dentures slip, a full-arch restoration is a stable, functional alternative. Planning starts with 3D CBCT scanning, so Dr. Incampo can see the bone and design your new teeth before treatment begins.

All-on-4

Restores a full arch of teeth with only four implants, and reduces the need for bone grafting in many cases.

All-on-6

Six implants support the arch for added stability when chewing.

Implant-supported dentures

A removable denture that snaps onto implants, so it stays in place while you eat and speak.

Restorative & implant dentistry

Specialist care for the whole smile.

Crowns, bridges, dentures, veneers and full mouth reconstruction, planned by a prosthodontist and completed in one office.

01

Dental Implants

Missing teeth can affect your ability to chew, speak, and smile with confidence. Implants fuse with the jawbone, giving a replacement tooth a stable root. They can replace a single tooth, several teeth or a full arch.

Single tooth · Multiple teeth · 3D CBCT planning
02

Crowns & Same-Day CEREC

Custom dental crowns repair and strengthen damaged teeth with a natural look. Same-day CEREC crowns are designed and milled in the office for accuracy and convenience.

Custom crowns · Same-day CEREC · Intraoral scanners
03

Full Mouth Reconstruction

A single treatment plan that restores the health, function, and appearance of your entire smile. It can combine implants, crowns, bridges and bite correction to repair damaged teeth and rebalance how your teeth meet.

Implants · Crowns · Bridges · Bite correction
04

Bridges & Dentures

Bridges fill the gap left by missing teeth. Full and partial dentures replace several or all teeth, and implant-supported dentures snap onto implants for a more secure fit.

Bridges · Full & partial dentures · Implant-supported
05

Bone Grafts & Sinus Lifts

Adequate jawbone is needed for implants, but bone grafting can help if bone loss has occurred. Sinus lifts add bone in the upper jaw so implants have a secure foundation.

Bone grafting · Sinus lifts · Implant foundations
06

Veneers & Smile Design

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that cover the front of your teeth to change their shape, color or apparent alignment. They are often used to cover chips, close small gaps and brighten discolored teeth.

Porcelain veneers · Whitening · Smile makeovers
Modern dental technology

The technology behind your treatment plan.

Digital imaging helps us find problems early and plan implants and crowns in detail before treatment starts. Scanners and in-office milling also replace some of the steps patients like least, such as putty impressions and waiting on a lab.

3D CBCT Scanning for Implant Planning

A three-dimensional view of your jawbone, so implants can be planned precisely before treatment begins.

Intraoral Scanners

Digital impressions of your teeth, without the messy molds.

Same-Day CEREC Crowns

Crowns designed and milled in our office for accuracy and convenience.

Digital X-Rays

Clear, instant images that help detect problems early.

Intraoral Cameras

See what we see, on screen, while you’re in the chair.

Laser Dentistry

Precise, gentle treatment of soft tissue.

I have spent more time in dental chairs than most have in an entire lifetime. Dr. Incampo and his staff are extraordinary. Dr. I's touch is gentle and sure, evidence of his years of knowledge abd experience. The staff is unhurried. The setting invitational. I have only the highest praise for Dr. Incampo, his associates and his staff. This may be the last dental experience I will ever need. Highest recommendation! Dr. Dorree Lynn

Had a very pleasant experience was given many options was not pressured in into making a decision. Considering going to the dentist is the worst thing I can think of they were all super friendly and made me very comfortable. I’ve already set an appointment. And feel as though im on my way to solving problems instead of just fixing issues… highly Recommend even if it’s just for A consultation.

A prosthodontist is one of the dental specialties recognized by the American Dental Association. After dental school, a prosthodontist completes additional years of residency focused on restoring and replacing teeth: implants, crowns, bridges, veneers, dentures and full mouth reconstruction. That training covers how teeth look and how they work together, including your bite and jaw joints. Because they plan the finished smile first and work backwards, prosthodontists are often called the architects of dentistry.

Many do, and Dr. Incampo is one of them. He completed advanced implant surgical training at the Misch International Implant Institute and serves as a surgical implant instructor, so he can plan the implant, place it and design the tooth it supports. Having one doctor handle every step means fewer referrals, fewer offices to visit, and a treatment plan where the implant position is chosen with the final tooth in mind.

Most adults who are missing one or more teeth can be considered for implants. The main requirements are healthy gums and enough jawbone to hold the implant. If bone has been lost, a bone graft or sinus lift can often rebuild it first. Conditions such as uncontrolled diabetes or heavy smoking can slow healing, so we review your health history and take a 3D CBCT scan at your consultation before recommending a plan.

Both replace a full upper or lower arch of teeth with a fixed bridge anchored to implants. All-on-4 uses four implants, often angled at the back to make the most of the bone you have, which can reduce the need for grafting. All-on-6 uses six implants to spread chewing forces across more support points for added stability. Which one suits you depends on your bone volume, bite and goals, and we’ll explain the trade-offs using your scan.

For many patients, yes. Traditional dentures rest on the gums and rely on suction or adhesive, so they can slip while eating or speaking. Implant-supported dentures snap onto implants, which keeps them in place and lets you chew with more force. The implants also stimulate the jawbone, which helps slow the bone loss that changes facial shape over time. Traditional dentures can still be a good option, and we’ll compare both with you.

Most patients are surprised by how comfortable implant treatment is. The area is fully numbed during the procedure, and sedation is available if you feel anxious. Afterward, mild soreness and swelling for a few days is common and is usually managed with over-the-counter pain relief and soft foods. We’ll give you clear aftercare instructions and check on your healing at follow-up visits.

We work with most major dental plans, including MetLife, Delta Dental, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna and Principal, but coverage varies widely between plans. Some plans contribute toward the implant, the crown or related procedures such as extractions and bone grafts, while others exclude implants entirely. We’ll review your benefits and give you a written estimate before treatment begins. For the remaining balance, financing through Cherry, CareCredit or Proceed Finance can spread the cost into monthly payments.

No. You can book a consultation with Dr. Incampo directly, without a referral from another dentist. If you already have a general dentist, we’re happy to coordinate with them and share your records, X-rays and treatment plan so your care stays connected.
