When you opt for dental implants, you can enjoy a strong and lasting tooth replacement that improves your quality of life and long-term oral health. Inland Empire Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons can develop your personal treatment plan to restore your smile and protect your health.

What Are Dental Implants?

  • Dental implants are biomedical devices that a surgeon places to support replacement teeth
  • Titanium construction enables osseointegration, so the implant posts naturally bond with your bone
  • The solid foundation provides support for crowns, bridges, or full-arch replacement through the All-on-4® treatment concept
  • Dental implants provide lasting support and protect your long-term health

Why Select Dental Implants over Other Options?

Many tooth restoration options are available today, and dental implants are often the best choice for most situations. Our team will carefully evaluate your case to find the right treatment plan.

A dental implant is often better than a 3-part dental bridge if you are missing a single tooth. With an implant, you will not need any material removed from healthy teeth, as would be the case when having a dental crown placed.

If you are missing all of your teeth, multiple dental implants are an excellent solution. The All-on-4® treatment concept can provide significant improvements compared to traditional dentures.


Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?

Certain factors need to be addressed before receiving a dental implant, including:

  • Active gum disease
  • Uncontrolled diabetes
  • Ongoing teeth grinding
  • Habits that harm teeth, like smoking

We also need to make sure that your jawbone can support dental implants. Smaller or weakened jawbones may require bone grafting.


Getting Started with Dental Implants

To start your dental implant journey, you will visit the team at Inland Empire Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons for an evaluation. We will take a closer look at your needs to find the best treatment plan for you as an individual.

During the evaluation and treatment planning process, we use the latest technology. 3Shape intraoral scanners and CBCT X-rays let us create highly detailed 3D scans of your teeth, jaw, and surrounding tissue.

Once our team has created your treatment plan, our surgeons will carry out the necessary procedures, including tooth extraction, bone grafting, and other preparatory treatments.


Post-Op and Recovery Timeline

Most symptoms you experience during recovery will fade over the first two to three days. Recovery is generally very mild, and you can always reach out with any concerns.

Total integration takes about four months. At that point, you will receive the custom crown that your dental implant or implants will support.

How Long Will the Implants Last?
