The first dental implants were placed in 1965, but they did not become common until the last few decades.
Dr. Smith will thoroughly evaluate your oral health, including your jawbone density, to determine if you're a good candidate for an implant.
The titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as a sturdy foundation for the new tooth.
Over a few months, the implant fuses with the jawbone, creating a stable and permanent bond.
Once healing is complete, a custom-made crown is attached to the implant, restoring the tooth’s function and appearance.
Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure.
Looks and functions like a real tooth, seamlessly blending with your natural smile.
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them a cost-effective solution in the long run.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain. Mild discomfort after surgery is normal and can be managed with pain relievers.
Dental implants last 30+ years with proper care. If you’re taking good care of your mouth, you can expect your dental implant to last you for the rest of your life. This makes dental implants the best long-term restorative dentistry option in South Los Angeles if you’re missing one or more teeth.
Most healthy adults are good candidates, but those with severe bone loss, active gum disease, or certain medical conditions may need additional treatment first.
Save yourself money, time, and future dental pain by keeping up with your preventive care.
