Should My GP Place Implants?

Ann, a patient, asks us:

I am 48 years old. Last year, my general dentist extracted my top back
molar due to “too little tooth structure left to the crown”. He told
me that he hoped my wisdom tooth would move in to fill void. So far, it hasn’t.

Last month, I bit down on a popcorn kernel, fracturing an upper bicuspid. The dentist removed the back portion, and agreed to leave the front until I could arrange for a dental implant. So it looks as if I need dental implants for both teeth.

My general dentist wants to place the dental implants, and says that he has done a couple hundred of them. I’m feeling that I should go to someone who does this procedure even more often, such as an oral surgeon. Am I right to think that a general dentist isn’t apt to handle this as well as an oral surgeon? What is the preferred way to proceed with dental implant treatment? Thanks.
