What Makes Dental Implants Different?

Instead of short-term fixes, dental implants offer a lifelong solution by integrating with your body. These durable titanium posts serve as replacement roots that fuse with your jawbone.

What makes them remarkable? They provide a stable, natural-feeling foundation that works exactly like your original teeth!

Starting Your Implant Journey: Comprehensive Consultation

To begin the process, you'll schedule a visit to either our San Ramon or Turlock location for a thorough evaluation. During this important first appointment, we can:

  • Generate high-resolution digital scans of your jaw anatomy

  • Assess your oral health and bone density

  • Review your health background thoroughly

  • Discuss your smile goals and expectations

  • Build a customized treatment blueprint

This personalized approach ensures optimal results for your new smile in San Ramon or Turlock. No two patients — or their treatment plans — are exactly alike.

The Treatment Timeline

Implant therapy happens in phases:

  • Phase 1: Foundation Work First, we prepare the implant site. Some patients need preliminary procedures like bone grafting to build up jaw strength. Others can proceed directly to implant placement.

  • Phase 2: Implant Placement Using computer-guided techniques, our specialists carefully position the implant post within your jawbone. This minimally invasive approach promotes faster healing and precise results.

  • Phase 3: Healing Period Over the next few months, something remarkable happens — your jawbone naturally grows around the implant, securing it permanently. This biological process creates an incredibly stable foundation.

  • Phase 4: Restoration Completion Once healing is complete, we add a connector piece and attach your custom-designed tooth restoration. The finished result blends seamlessly with your natural teeth in both appearance and function.

Caring for Your Investment

Maintaining your implants is surprisingly simple:

  • Brush twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush

  • Clean between teeth with implant-friendly floss or brushes

  • Maintain regular professional cleanings

  • Avoid chewing extremely hard items like ice

  • Protect your implants with a nightguard if you grind your teeth

With proper maintenance, your new smile in Turlock or San Ramon can provide decades of confident smiling, speaking, and eating.

Complete Health Advantages

Dental implants provide benefits far beyond appearance. They actively preserve facial structure by stimulating bone growth, prevent remaining teeth from shifting out of position, and restore full chewing function for better digestion and nutrition.

Unlike solutions that sit on your gums, implants become an integrated part of your body. They eliminate the discomfort, embarrassment, and limitations often associated with traditional tooth replacement options.
