Dental Implants
Missing teeth can be embarrassing and uncomfortable. If you are missing a tooth, you probably know how it feels to hide your smile.
Dr. Daniel Stragier and his team provide patients with dental implants so they can enjoy long-lasting tooth restoration.
Learn how Balboa Dental Care in San Diego, CA, can help transform your smile with dental implants.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are used to replace missing tooth roots. They provide much-needed stimulation for your jawbone and support lifelike restorations.
The Benefits of Dental Implants
Durability
If you practice good dental health habits and follow your dentist's instructions, your dental implants can last for 40 years or longer. While the restoration attached to the implant will someday require replacement, the implant itself can last a lifetime.
Jawbone Strength
Tooth roots provide stimulation to the jawbone. A missing tooth can cause the jawbone to atrophy, potentially leading to misalignment of your teeth and distortion of your jawline. Working in place of the missing roots, dental implants can stop further atrophy.

Millions of patients across the country have been where you are now. Though you may feel nervous, there is a roadmap to get you through this situation — one that can protect your oral health and your overall confidence. We earn and maintain patient confidence with:
Dr. Stragier can place titanium implants, which will fuse with your jawbone. If your bone is not strong enough for treatment, he can also perform grafting or a sinus lift.
We use 3D cone-beam computed tomography for precise scans of your teeth, gums, and jaw. This results in more accurate treatment and more lifelike final results.

Tooth Loss Happens More Often Than You'd Think
When you have a missing tooth or teeth, you may feel like you're all alone. You're not: around 120 million patients in the U.S. have lost a permanent tooth, and 36 million have lost all of their natural teeth.* Our dentist has seen many patients with missing teeth — and he can provide a long-term solution with dental implants.
What Concerns Can Dental Implants Treat?
A gap in your smile can affect your dental function and self-esteem. An implant-supported crown can improve your bite and confidence.
If you're missing a greater number of teeth, an implant-supported bridge or denture may be the solution for your smile.
Extensive decay can damage a tooth beyond repair. However, we can restore your smile with a painless extraction and implant replacement.

Sedation Can Help

Dental implants can be placed using only local anesthesia, but if you're feeling anxious about the procedure, you can receive oral conscious or nitrous oxide sedation. These options induce a state of deep relaxation to ensure your complete comfort.

Complimentary Treatments Can Enhance Your Results
Replacing missing teeth with dental implants may not be enough to help you meet all your needs. If you're looking for an even greater transformation, consider these treatments:
Full Mouth Reconstruction
Do you want to address other dental concerns in addition to missing teeth? Work with Dr. Stragier to create a personalized full mouth reconstruction treatment plan. You can combine procedures to achieve your treatment goals in fewer appointments.
Invisalign®
If you have mild to moderate dental misalignment, Invisalign clear aligners can comfortably and discreetly straighten your teeth. When combined with dental implants and restorations, this treatment can give you a gorgeous, uniform smile.
In addition to a full mouth reconstruction or Invisalign, you can also receive important preparatory work, such as a bone graft or sinus lift, at our San Diego practice. If you have low jawbone density, these procedures can restore lost tissue and make you eligible for dental implants. Contact us to learn more about our preparatory dental services.

An Investment in Your Quality of Life
Modern dentistry provides numerous options to replace missing natural teeth. Thanks to state-of-the-art dental porcelain, traditional bridges and dentures are an affordable way to fill the gaps in your smile. Unfortunately, these options do not stop jawbone atrophy. Dental implants are the only treatment that supports your health by stopping further bone deterioration.
With traditional dentures and bridges, continued atrophy leads to changes in your facial features. This requires frequent adjustments to restorations to ensure they continue to fit properly. The costs of these adjustments add up over time, not to mention the number of trips you have to make to the dentist.
Implant-supported dentures and bridges do not require such frequent adjustments. Because they are anchored securely to implants, they also do not shift around. For many patients who have chosen dental implants at our San Diego, CA dentistry practice, the long term health and quality-of-life benefits outweigh the upfront costs.
