Restore Complete Function with Implants

Dental implants are the successor to bridges, invented to provide a durable foundation for natural and aesthetic crowns that look, feel and function just like your original teeth. Implants are an ideal option for people who:

• Have experienced the failure of a root canal
• Suffer discomfort from a severely decayed or fractured tooth
• Have missing teeth that cause chewing problems
• Wear a partial or a complete set of dentures
• Are considering the possibility of a bridge

An implant procedure has two phases: surgical and restorative. Many dentists only possess the expertise to offer the restorative aspect of the procedure; we offer both. That means you won’t need to be referred out and have a tooth removed by another professional whom you have never met. You complete care will be under the guidance and protection of our compassionate and well-trained dental team.

Take an apple out of the fridge and bite into it as much as you like. Go for the leftover toffee crunch too — without any concern. Call our office and rediscover the joy of eating your favorite crunchy foods.

Replace Your Missing Teeth with our Torrance Dental Implants

Dental implants offer many benefits, including:

• The Greatest Success Rate — better than any other type of dental restoration.
• Unprecedented Longevity — enjoy superior, long-term durability and sustainability.
• Stronger Bite Pressure — move from 50% to near 100% force, eat almost anything.
• Exact Replication — you won’t even realize that it isn’t your original tooth.
• Conservative Results — no modifications are made to your adjacent teeth.
• Facial Contour Preservation — avoid the sunken effect caused by missing teeth.

Dental implants do an incredibly admirable job of replacing one or more missing teeth. Our Torrance dentist surgically inserts the implant into your jaw bone, where it functions effectively for decades as an artificial tooth root.

Over a period of several weeks to several months (depending on the overall health of your gums and other teeth), your implant blends into your jaw bone, establishing a secure foundation upon which our Hawthorne dentist places a beautiful crown that mimics the look and feel of your original tooth.

Most important, your implant maintains the bone mass underneath the original space, preventing additional tooth loss and sunken, gaunt facial features. You also benefit from a dramatic improvement in bite pressure, since your implant can withstand biting and chewing forces equivalent to a healthy, natural tooth.

Many of our San Fernando Valley patients confess that, while implants do require time to heal, the procedure causes surprisingly minimal discomfort and the results are worth the wait.

We encourage you to call our Carson dental office today and discuss dental implants. You might just be pleasantly surprised by what you discover.
