Meet Dr. Chad Wassink
I grew up in Montana where I spent my days camping, fishing, and hiking around the vast, mountainous landscape. As long as I was outside and active, I was happy.
After high school, I headed to California where I received my undergrad degree in human biology from Stanford University. At the time, I knew I wanted to be in the medical field, but I wasn’t quite sure which part.
Fortunately, in addition to my degree, I also acquired a wife during my time at Stanford. Whitney and I were both on the track team for several seasons, and let’s just say it was love at first hurdle. After graduation, as I was scouring my brain (and the Internet) for a career path, Whitney suggested I look into the field of dentistry. As always, she was right. It turned out to be a great fit.
Since starting with Custom Dental, I’ve had two sons, one daughter, and a whole lot of new patients. I love that I’m able to help people alleviate their pain and enjoy a happy, healthy smile each and every day.
However, I understand full well that not everyone feels comfortable at the dentist; in fact, I’m willing to bet that more than half of you would rather be anywhere else. To facilitate that, I’ve become certified in sedation dentistry — a wonderful option that allows even the faintest of heart to get any level of dental work done without having to endure the procedure. No pain, ALL gain.
As much as I care about my patients, being a good dentist is second only to being a good dad. I love spending time with my kiddos, and while they’re still a bit too young for hiking, we can always manage to have a good time at the neighborhood park. Whether it’s my kids or my patients, I love making people smile — and I plan to be in the smile business for many years to come.

Z-Systems Ceramic Implants
Exclusively in Harrisonville from Dr. Chad Wassink
The Only FDA Approved 100 % Metal Free Implants, Superior to Titanium Implants in Many Areas:
More natural.
Bones and gums integrate better with zirconium oxide ceramics.
Healthier.
Z-SYSTEMS implants are metal-free, biocompatible, conduct neither heat nor electrical energy, and cause no irritation to the immune system.
More sustainable.
Less plaque accretion than on titanium. This reduces the risk of perimplantitis as well as cardiovascular diseases and strokes.
Stronger.
Ceramic is much stronger than titanium.
More aesthetic.
Thanks to the white material, no gray shadows are visible even with thin or receding gums.
More visible.
Ceramic implants are opaque to X-rays, and easier to recognize in critical situations.
What Is A Dental Implant?
The implant body or post is the portion of the implant that is inserted into the jawbone. The implant body integrates with the jawbone and becomes the anchor for the new tooth.
The implant abutment is the portion of the dental implant inside the crown. Sometimes the abutment is created with the implant body as one piece. Other times, it is separate and attached to the implant with a screw. The abutment shapes the gum tissue and supports the crown.
The dental implant crown is the portion of the dental implant you see, but if done correctly, no one can tell it is not a natural tooth. The crown is bonded or cemented to the implant abutment and is commonly made of a ceramic or zirconia material because of its naturally white color and strength.
