Dental Implants in Cali

Dental implants are the most natural way to replace missing teeth. Typically made of titanium, dental implants are designed to replace the root structure of missing teeth, providing support and stability for replacement teeth. They are the longest-lasting solution available.

A dental implant is a replacement tooth made up of three parts: the root, abutment, and crown. The root is often made of titanium, an abutment or post is used as a connector, and then a porcelain crown is placed on top as your replacement tooth.

Traditional, single implants of either titanium or zirconia, with an abutment, and a porcelain or zirconia crown.

These dental bridges are held in place by individual implants opposed to crowned teeth.

These dentures are snapped into place and held down by implants, either 2 or 4 implants per arch.

A whole arch's worth of replacement teeth held down by 4-10 implants.

Dental implant procedures are typically done in 2-3 phases, each 4-10 days in length.

Each phase comprises of 2-3 sessions, each lasting 2-3 hours.

We use top manufacturers BioHorizons, Microdent, Zimmer Biomet, and Straumann.

All patients are escorted to a nearby facility to take a 3D x-ray.

During the first phase, tooth extractions and/or bone grafts are performed if necessary, followed by the physical insertion of the implant (screw).

You will be given a strong local anesthesia, laughing gas, or IV sedation depending on the number of implants being done.

You will heal for 4-5 days before having a follow up exam. A bland diet is recommended. Pain medication will be provided.

Allow 4-6 months for the implant(s) to fuse to your jaw bone.

Optional temporary tooth solutions (flippers, partials, and/or dentures) are available to wear during this period.

Return for another 4-10 days, depending on how many permanent crowns are to be placed on the implants that have fused to your jaw bone.

Almost anyone who is missing a single tooth, multiple teeth, or all teeth are candidates for dental implants. Depending on your bone jaw density, you may need a bone graft and/or membrane.

Like any implants done anywhere, it varies from individual to individual, depending on health and habits. For a healthy individual with good oral hygiene and good health, dental implants are predictably successful with reported success rates above 95 percent.

Unlike natural teeth, dental implants are not susceptible to dental disease such as decay. However, the health of the gums is vital to maintaining lasting implant success.

With proper care of your teeth, the implants you get in Cali should last you the rest of your life.

Dental implants are the most natural looking and natural feeling replacement for missing teeth. They are fixed solidly in the bone and allow teeth to be replaced in a manner that is closest to natural teeth.

Unlike other tooth replacement options, dental implants don’t slip or click when you talk, laugh or eat. And they help keep your jawbone healthy, so that your facial structure stays intact.

Patients especially like getting their dental implants done in Cali since it’s about ⅓ the price than back home, with the exact same materials and manufacturers.

Simply put, tooth loss leads to bone loss, which may require a more complicated and expensive treatment in the future.

The titanium posts of dental implants replace the function of natural tooth roots. By giving physical support to your jaw bone and stimulating bone strength through chewing, implants keep your jaw healthy over time.
