What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made from biocompatible titanium, surgically placed into the jawbone to support prosthetic teeth like crowns, bridges, or dentures. They mimic the function and appearance of natural teeth, providing a stable and durable solution for tooth loss.
Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, dental implants integrate with your jawbone, offering long-lasting results while preserving bone health. Whether you’re replacing a single tooth or an entire arch, implants are a versatile solution that restores both aesthetics and function.
Signs You Might Need Dental Implants
- Missing Teeth: One or more gaps in your smile caused by tooth loss.
- Uncomfortable Dentures: Dentures that slip, shift, or cause irritation.
- Bone Loss: Deterioration of the jawbone due to prolonged tooth absence.
- Chewing Difficulty: Trouble eating your favorite foods due to missing or damaged teeth.
- Tooth Decay or Damage: Teeth that are beyond repair and need to be replaced.
- Desire for a Permanent Solution: If you’re seeking a durable, long-term alternative to removable dentures or bridges.
Our team in Camarillo will carefully evaluate your oral health and recommend a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.

The Dental Implant Procedure
- Initial Consultation
We begin with a detailed examination, including X-rays and 3D scans, to assess your oral health and jawbone density. This helps us determine the best approach for your treatment.
- Treatment Plan
Based on your evaluation, we create a customized treatment plan that outlines the number of implants needed and the type of restoration you’ll receive.
- Implant Placement
The implant is surgically placed into the jawbone during a minor procedure. Over the next few weeks, the implant integrates with the bone, creating a stable foundation for your replacement tooth.
- Abutment Attachment
Once the implant has fully healed, an abutment is placed on top of it. This acts as a connector between the implant and your custom restoration.
- Custom Restoration
A crown, bridge, or denture is attached to the abutment, completing your smile transformation. Each restoration is designed to match your natural teeth in size, shape, and color.
- Follow-Up Care
We schedule follow-up visits to monitor your healing process and provide guidance on maintaining your implants.
