What Is a Dental Implant?
Missing teeth can make it hard to chew, speak clearly, or smile confidently; over time, they can affect overall health and facial structure. We proudly offer affordable dental implants in Glendale, CA, the gold-standard solution for replacing missing teeth.
A dental implant comprises three parts: a small titanium post that replaces your tooth root, a custom abutment that connects the post to a replacement tooth, and a beautiful crown, bridge, or full-arch prosthesis that looks and functions like real teeth. Whether you’re missing one tooth or need a functional alternative to dentures, dental implants can restore the function and appearance you deserve!

Dental Implants Offer Versatile Solutions
for Every Tooth Replacement Need
Single
Implants
Single dental implants are the perfect solution for replacing individual missing teeth. A titanium post acts as a tooth root, and a custom crown is attached to restore your smile. This option is ideal if you want a natural-looking, long-lasting replacement for a single tooth.
Dental
Bridges
Implant-supported bridges are a great option when you have multiple missing teeth in a row. Implants securely anchor the bridge, providing stability and preventing neighboring teeth from shifting. Unlike traditional dental bridges, these don’t rely on adjacent teeth for support, protecting your remaining natural teeth.
Implant-Supported
Dentures
Implant-supported dentures offer a secure and stable alternative to traditional dentures. Using dental implants as anchors, these dentures stay firmly in place, giving you the confidence to eat, speak, and smile without worry. They’re ideal for replacing multiple teeth or an entire arch with a fixed or removable prosthesis.
Full-Mouth
Dental Implants
Full-mouth dental implants are as close to having a complete set of healthy natural teeth again. Unlike removable options, your full-mouth dental implants will be permanently fixed, meaning you’ll never have to take your teeth out at night. Because of their superior strength and stability, we can craft your prosthesis from heavier, more durable materials that look, feel, and function like natural enamel.
What to Expect with Dental Implant Surgery
Your journey starts with a personalized consultation at our office, where Dr. David Shirinian will take 3D images using advanced diagnostic technology to get a complete view of your teeth and bone structure. During this visit, we’ll discuss your goals, review your options, and discuss important details like what to expect with dental implant costs and treatment timelines.
We build every treatment plan custom to your unique needs to ensure the best possible results. We’ll also answer all your questions and ensure you feel confident moving forward.
Depending on your specific situation, we may need to create a solid foundation for your implants by removing unsalvageable teeth or rebuilding lost bone structure. When everything is ready, our experienced team will gently place the implants into your jawbone with precision and care, either by making a small incision through the gums to access the bone or directly into the socket after a tooth extraction.
To ensure every procedure is comfortable, we’ll provide safe and effective pain control and sedation options when appropriate. Thanks to modern techniques, we can frequently offer lightweight temporary teeth in the same appointment as your surgery, so you’ll never have to go without a smile.
We’ll help you schedule one or more follow-up visits after your implant placement so we can monitor your healing progress. We’ll take updated scans and check to ensure your implants integrate properly with your bone. If same-day teeth were not appropriate for your situation, we may be able to provide a temporary restoration at a follow-up visit.
This is also a great time to ask questions and share how you feel as you recover. We’ll also make any necessary adjustments to your temporary teeth to ensure they’re as comfortable as possible throughout your healing process.
Over the next several months, your implant posts will fuse to the supporting bone in a process called osseointegration. Once your implants have fully healed and bonded with your bone, we’ll take precise digital impressions to craft your permanent crown, bridge, modified denture, or full permanent prosthesis for full-mouth dental implants.
We’ll design each tooth in your smile to look natural, feel comfortable, and function like the real thing. When they’re ready, we’ll securely attach them to your implants and make any necessary adjustments to ensure a perfect fit you can enjoy for years to come!
