Dental Implants in Valencia, CA
Dental implants replace a missing tooth from the root up: a post in the jaw, then a crown or a denture on top. This page is the overview, and each option has a page of its own.
Dental Implants in Valencia, step by step

The first Valencia home closed escrow in Old Orchard in 1967, and the practice opened on Soledad Canyon Road in 1979. Valencia patients replacing teeth today find five dentists in one office, including a periodontist whose research centers on rebuilding the jaw bone that implants rely on.
Valencia is the valley's planned community: villages laid out for the Newhall Land and Farming Company under Gruen Associates' 1965 master plan, stitched together by paseos that pass over and under the streets. For a Valencia resident replacing a tooth, the office is about 2 miles east, so the consultation, the placement visit and the crown fitting months later are each a short trip.
How dental implants works here
The treatment works the same way whether one tooth is missing or several. The dentist sets a screw-shaped post where the root used to be, a temporary tooth goes on, and after about two to four months, once the bone has fused to the post, the permanent crown is placed. When most teeth are gone, posts like these can anchor a denture instead of individual crowns.
