Dental Implants in Yorba Linda, CA

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are a long-lasting and natural-looking solution for replacing missing teeth. Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed into the jawbone, providing a stable foundation for artificial teeth. This innovative procedure restores both function and aesthetics, allowing patients to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

At John J. Myers, DDS, we specialize in high-quality single-tooth implants, implant-supported dentures, and full mouth reconstruction to meet your unique dental needs.

Benefits of Dental Implants

Dental implants offer several advantages over traditional tooth replacement options:

Permanent and Long-Lasting – With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.
Natural Look and Feel – Designed to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth.
Preserves Jawbone Health – Prevents bone loss by stimulating natural bone growth.
Improved Comfort and Functionality – No slipping or shifting, unlike dentures.
No Damage to Surrounding Teeth – Unlike dental bridges, implants do not rely on adjacent teeth for support.

For patients looking to improve their smile but who may not be ready for implants, we also offer bridges and dentures as alternative solutions.

The Dental Implant Process

Getting a dental implant involves several steps, ensuring a secure and natural-looking result:

Initial Consultation & 3D Imaging – We use cone beam CT scans to evaluate bone structure and determine implant placement.
Implant Placement Surgery – The titanium implant is surgically inserted into the jawbone, where it will integrate over time.
Healing & Osseointegration – The implant fuses with the bone over several months to create a stable foundation.
Abutment & Crown Placement – Once healed, a custom crown, bridge, or denture is securely attached to the implant for a natural finish.

For patients with insufficient bone density, we may recommend a bone graft to strengthen the jaw before implant placement.

Are Dental Implants Right for You?

Dental implants are an excellent solution for most patients with missing teeth, but certain factors may affect candidacy:

Good Oral Health – Healthy gums and sufficient bone density are essential.
Non-Smokers Preferred – Smoking can impact healing and implant success.
Commitment to Oral Hygiene – Regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups help maintain implant longevity.

If you're unsure whether implants are right for you, our team will guide you through the options, including same-day crowns and porcelain veneers for aesthetic improvements.
