Hello, I’m Dr. E. Ahono Gildersleeve. I’m a general dentist in the greater Pittsburgh area of Butler, Pennsylvania, with a special interest in mini dental implants. Our patient population includes children, teenagers, and adults. We do everything from routine fillings, cleanings, and checkups to implants, implant, dentures, and full mouth cases.

I graduated from Touro College of Dental Medicine in 2020, and after that, I went on to residency through NYU Langone for an advanced education in general dentistry. I did my residency in Buffalo, New York, and I focused on general dentistry as well as implant dentistry and oral surgery.

After completing my residency, I moved back to Butler, Pennsylvania, to work with my dad, Dr. Donald Brockley, DMD. Every day I enjoy going to work with him, learning from him and collaborating with him and helping our many patients.

If you or someone you love needs dental treatment, meet with Dr. E. Ahono Gildersleeve to learn about her background and see if Brockley Dental is the right fit for you.

    The Mini Dental Implant Advantage

    Half The Size

    Mini Implants are about half the size of traditional implant, and therefore don’t require as much bone. With less bone needed, costly, painful and time-consuming bone grafts are typically not required.

    Half The Cost

    In most cases, the mini dental implant procedure is less than half the cost of a traditional implant case, saving you money.

    Preserves Bone Structure

    Implants preserve your natural bone structure so you can maintain the shape of your face and avoid continued bone loss where teeth are missing.

    Immediate Results

    Because they are less invasive, and don’t require the lengthy healing time of traditional implants, they can typically be loaded with crowns, bridges and dentures immediately.

    Less Healing Time & Fewer Visits

    Because mini implants are much smaller, placing them is a less invasive procedure—requiring less healing time and discomfort, and fewer visits.

    No More Decay

    Mini implants are made out of titanium—the same type of material that is used on artificial joints, and they are not subject to decay or periodontal disease.
