In the field of modern dentistry, Dr. Harry Ashitey stands out as a visionary who blends precision, artistry, and compassion. As the founder of Aesthetic Dentistry & Implant Center in Corinth, he has long been known for transforming smiles and lives through advanced aesthetic and implant care. Now, he’s setting a new standard once again by introducing the first robotic-assisted dental implant system in Denton County. This groundbreaking advancement marks a major step forward in both patient care and technological innovation, positioning his practice at the forefront of health and wellness.
Dr. Ashitey’s journey into dentistry began with a fascination for the intersection of science and human connection.
“My passion for dentistry truly deepened during my pre-med studies,” he says. “I realized how transformative a smile can be—not just aesthetically, but emotionally and socially. Dentistry gave me the opportunity to combine science, artistry, and human connection every single day.”
That philosophy of melding art with precision eventually drew him toward aesthetic and implant dentistry. “When you restore a patient’s ability to smile or chew confidently, it changes their entire outlook,” he explains. “Seeing someone smile again sometimes for the first time in years is one of the most rewarding experiences imaginable.”
At Aesthetic Dentistry & Implant Center, oral care extends far beyond the surface. Dr. Ashitey and his team view a healthy mouth as a reflection of overall health.
“Oral health is directly linked to heart health, digestion, and even mental well-being,” he says. “We look at everything: bite alignment, airway function, gum health, and systemic conditions influenced by oral bacteria. Every treatment plan is designed to enhance both appearance and long-term function.”
That integrative perspective aligns perfectly with today’s broader focus on preventative and holistic wellness. “When we improve oral health, we’re improving quality of life,” he adds. “It’s about restoring balance, confidence, and vitality.”
This year, Dr. Ashitey brought something truly revolutionary to North Texas—the Yomi robotic-assisted implant system, the first and only FDA-cleared robotic technology for dental implant surgery.
“The Yomi system acts as a digital partner,” he explains. “It combines pre-surgical 3D imaging with real-time feedback, guiding my hand during the procedure to ensure that every implant is placed with absolute precision. It’s a remarkable level of accuracy that simply wasn’t possible before.”
Traditional implant surgery relies largely on a clinician’s skill and static guides. Robotic technology enhances that skill through dynamic, data-driven assistance. “It’s not replacing the dentist,” Dr. Ashitey emphasizes. “It’s enhancing human expertise, which gives me the ability to make the smallest, most precise adjustments during surgery. That means smaller incisions, faster recovery, and predictable, long-lasting results.”
The introduction of this technology places his practice at the cutting edge of minimally invasive, patient-centered dentistry, and at the forefront of what many consider the next evolution in oral healthcare.
The response from patients, according to Dr. Ashitey, has been overwhelmingly positive.
“Patients feel reassured knowing their treatment is guided by both a highly-skilled clinician and cutting-edge robotic assistance,” he says. “They experience less discomfort, faster healing, and beautiful, natural-looking results. It’s truly a new era of confidence in implant care.”
He believes the integration of robotics will soon become the norm in surgical dentistry. “This is where the field is headed,” he says. “In the near future, robotics will be standard. It’s not just for implants, but for a wide range of surgical and restorative procedures. Robotics are the future of precision dentistry, and we’re proud to bring it home to Denton County.”
Robotics may be the most visible advancement, but it’s far from the only one defining Dr. Ashitey’s practice. He’s equally passionate about digital design tools that elevate aesthetic outcomes.
“We’re incorporating digital smile design and AI-driven facial analysis to create smiles that are perfectly balanced with each patient’s facial structure,” he explains. “Our partnership with advanced dental labs allows for faster turnaround times, greater accuracy, and complete artistic control.”
The practice also utilizes 3D printing and photogrammetry workflows, which streamline complex procedures such as full-mouth reconstructions. “These tools allow us to merge beauty and biology in unprecedented ways,” he says. “The technology is incredible, but it’s how we use it to improve people’s lives that matters most.”
Underpinning the advanced technology, Aesthetic Dentistry & Implant Center remains focused on something simple yet profound: helping people feel whole again.
“Dentistry is about more than teeth,” Dr. Ashitey reflects. “It’s about restoring confidence, function, and wellness. Every innovation we embrace serves that purpose.”
As he looks ahead, the vision is clear: to lead North Texas into a future where dentistry seamlessly integrates technology, artistry, and compassion. This empowers every patient to live, speak, and smile with renewed confidence.
