Dental Implants
in Los Angeles, CA

Tooth loss comes with a cost. When a tooth goes missing, the neighboring teeth begin to move, the supporting jawbone slowly disappears, and the most apparent setback is a change in appearance.

Fortunately, dental implants combat all the adverse side effects of tooth loss and provide a seamless, sturdy solution for missing teeth. Dr. Daniel Adelpour of BLVD Dental Aesthetics in Mid-Wilshire helps restore edentulous smiles by designing and installing natural-looking dental implants.

What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are surgically implanted tooth replacement devices. Most oral health professionals regard dental implants as the “gold standard” in tooth replacement because they can restore virtually all capabilities and appearances of a natural tooth.

A dental implant consists of three parts:

  • Dental Implant: The screwlike post that mimics a natural tooth root that our dentist embeds in the jawbone
  • Abutment: The connecting piece that unites the dental implant and restoration
  • Restoration: The “crown” or replacement tooth or teeth

Signs You Might Need a Dental Implant-Supported Restoration

Typically, patients seeking immediate dental implants placement from BLVD Dental suffer from the following conditions:

  • Tooth loss (from decay or trauma)
  • Severely cracked, chipped, or worn-down teeth that can only be treated with extraction
  • Hereditary conditions that have led to missing teeth or premature decay
  • Desire the convenience and aesthetics of a permanent tooth replacement device

Dental Implant Surgery Expectations

Dr. Adelpour can conveniently plan and complete the surgical process at our Wilshire Blvd location, including a:

  • Comprehensive dental examination
  • Medical history review
  • Treatment plan
  • Surgery

The dental implant procedure is multi-step and requires many surgeries and recovery periods. Generally, here’s what you can expect from a standard dental implant procedure:

  • Preliminary Procedures, like tooth removal and jawbone grafting (when needed)
  • Implant Placement
  • Bone and Growth Healing
  • Abutment Placement
  • Final Restoration Placement

Dental Implant Repair

Dental implants are intended to be a permanent fixture, but if you’re experiencing a loose dental implant crown, complications with the implant itself, or other issues that warrant repair, please reach out to Dr. Adelpour as soon as possible. Chances are that the problems with your dental implants will only worsen with time and without intervention. Whether you choose an in-person or virtual consultation, our dentist will review dental implant repair costs and features of the process as well as answer any questions you might have.
