Dr. Clark Damon is one of the nation’s foremost experts in full-arch dental implant surgery and smile restoration, bringing advanced surgical precision and biomechanical expertise to every case.
With over 3,000 full-mouth implant and smile makeover cases completed and 40–60 implants placed each week, Dr. Damon’s experience is unparalleled in modern implant dentistry. As Director of the Texas Implant Institute and Faculty Member at ORCCA, a U.S.-based implant training program for American doctors serving patients in Guatemala, Dr. Damon is dedicated to advancing global education in complex implant techniques. His influence extends beyond the surgical suite operatory—training hundreds of clinicians to elevate standards of care worldwide.
Dr. Damon’s approach to Dental Implant Smile Makeovers is defined by his commitment to biomechanics, stability, and longevity. Utilizing a Zero Cantilever Technique, he ensures balanced force distribution and exceptional long-term success. Whenever possible, he incorporates pterygoid implants, enabling patients to achieve stronger bites, more teeth, and longer-lasting results than with conventional methods. This is the Smile Texas difference: we go above and beyond to deliver outstanding results. Why pay more for 4 implants at other clinics, when we aim to give you 6 implants per jaw.
With more pterygoid implants placed than any other dentist in the United States, Dr. Damon’s expertise is unmatched in this advanced technique. He also routinely performs zygomatic implant surgeries to ensure 100% immediate-load success, even in the most complex cases. His philosophy is simple yet powerful:
A true innovator, Dr. Damon has shaped the evolution of modern implant dentistry through his forward-thinking integration of technology and precision workflows. As founder of one of Texas’s first dedicated Implant Centers in 2013, he has introduced several industry milestones, including:
At Smile Texas, Dr. Damon provides patients with final zirconia prostheses, widely recognized as the most esthetic, hygienic, and durable restorative material available today. We layer on beautiful porcelain to bring the zirconia to life. Many of our patients tell us that their Dental Implant bridges look like veneers. That's our goal: anyone can have a smile makeover at Smile Texas.
When he’s not performing surgeries or teaching, Dr. Damon enjoys wakesurfing, fly fishing, spearfishing, traveling, cooking, and spending time with his family. His passion for adventure and precision extends beyond the clinic: mirroring his philosophy of balance, excellence, and lifelong learning.
