See What Implants Can Provide at Pacific Dental Studio
Dental implants are a reliable and long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth. Comprised of a titanium post surgically placed in the jawbone, implants serve as a strong foundation for artificial teeth, creating a natural look and feel. They not only restore your smile but also help maintain jawbone health by preventing bone loss. With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, providing improved functionality, aesthetics, and confidence. Discover the benefits of dental implants for a more complete and vibrant smile.

Implant Proccess
Consultation and Evaluation
The first step is a comprehensive consultation with your dentist, who will examine your oral health, take X-rays, and discuss your goals to determine if you’re a suitable candidate for implants.
Treatment Planning
If you're deemed a candidate, a personalized treatment plan is created, outlining the specific steps and timeline for your implant procedure.
Implant Placement
The next step involves the surgical placement of the titanium post into the jawbone. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia and may take one to two hours. After placement, the post acts as a root for the new tooth.
Healing Period
A healing period of several months follows, allowing the implant to fuse with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration. During this time, a temporary crown may be placed.
Abutment Proccess
Once healed, a small connector, or abutment, is attached to the implant. This piece will hold the final restoration in place.
Final Restoration
Impressions are taken to create a custom crown that matches your natural teeth. Once the crown is ready, it is attached to the abutment, completing the implant process.
