Castaic sits among open hills near the lake and the Castaic Lagoon below the dam, with Val Verde next door. Patients driving that far for an implant want each visit to count, so the first visit covers the exam, the X-rays and a treatment plan with options that fit your budget.
Castaic is the unincorporated community at the valley's north end, its name drawn from the Chumash word Kaštiq. Castaic Lake, the State Water Project reservoir where the California Aqueduct's West Branch ends, sits above town. It is the longest drive on this list, about 9 miles, which is a fair reason to pick an implant office that keeps its appointment times.
How overdentures works here
Over is the key word: the denture fits over a few implants set in the jaw. Fittings on the implants and inside the denture connect, so it clicks into place for eating and talking and comes out for cleaning. For someone who has struggled with a denture that floats or rubs, that hold is the main reason to consider it.
- Snaps onto implants, lifts out to clean
- Steadier than a denture held by suction
- Implants help protect the jaw bone
- Extractions and grafts in the same office
