Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about dental implants in Bakersfield

Are dental implants right for me?+

Dental implants are a versatile solution for many patients with missing teeth. They are an excellent option if you want a long-lasting, natural-looking replacement that functions just like your own teeth. The best way to find out is a consultation with our board-certified surgeons.

How long does the implant procedure take?+

The timeline varies depending on your specific case. Some patients are candidates for same day procedures. Others may require multiple appointments. Our surgeons will give you a clear, personalized timeline at your consultation.

Are dental implants painful?+

Local anesthesia is used during implant surgery to ensure minimal discomfort. You may experience some soreness after surgery, but this is manageable with medication. Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the process is.

How long do dental implants last?+

With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. The titanium post fuses with your jawbone permanently. Regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups are all that is needed to maintain your implants for decades.

How much do dental implants cost?+

The cost varies depending on factors like the number of implants needed and your unique case. We provide a personalized estimate during your consultation with no obligation. Financing options are available to help make treatment affordable.

What if I don't have enough bone for implants?+

Many patients told they cannot get implants due to bone loss are still excellent candidates. We offer specialized Zygomatic implants that anchor to the cheekbone — bypassing the need for adequate jawbone entirely. Our surgeons will find the right solution for your situation.
