Dental Implants

Dental Implants in Roseville, CA | Dr. Jefferson Clark

Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth, offering a permanent, natural-looking, and fully functional dental solution. Unlike traditional bridges or dentures, implants integrate with the jawbone, preventing bone loss and preserving facial structure. They restore chewing ability, speech clarity, and confidence while eliminating the discomfort and maintenance issues associated with removable prosthetics.

With proper care, implants can last a lifetime, making them a long-term, cost-effective investment in oral health. Whether replacing a single tooth, multiple teeth, or a full arch, implants provide unmatched stability, durability, and aesthetics, improving both oral and overall health.

What Are Dental Implants?

While saving natural teeth is always the preferred outcome, sometimes it isn’t possible. If you are searching for a long-term, beautiful, and functional tooth replacement solution in Roseville, CA, dental implants are your best option. A dental implant is a post, either titanium or ceramic, which takes the place of a missing tooth’s root. The implant post then supports a prosthetic, either a crown, bridge, or denture.

With proper care, implants can last a lifetime, making them a long-term, cost-effective investment in oral health. Whether replacing a single tooth, multiple teeth, or a full arch, implants provide unmatched stability, durability, and aesthetics, improving both oral and overall health.

Dental Implants Consultation in Roseville, CA

In an effort to achieve both aesthetic perfection and optimal oral health, our dental implants consultations take place over multiple visits. We want our patients to feel welcome, comfortable and educated about the dental implant process—patient education is one of the most important parts of our consultation process. To prepare for your consultation, please arrange to have your health records released and engage in a meaningful discussion about your concerns, options, and long-term health.

  • Prepare to discuss your medical history and medications
  • Consider how much you are willing to invest in your dental treatment
  • Consider your anesthetic needs and discuss anxiety management

Consultation steps

  • Review medical and dental history, including imaging
  • Complete thorough examination and document your condition with new imaging

  • Plan and establish a treatment plan and discuss realistic expectations
  • Schedule surgery, discuss financing, and finalize your care plan

Dental Implant Surgery in Sacramento, CA

The best way to prepare for your surgery is to make sure you eat a satiating meal to fuel your body and rest and relax. On the day of your implant surgery, you will arrive at one of our surgical sites and be welcomed into the operating suite. If necessary, Dr. Clark may prescribe anti-anxiety medication, but most implant surgeries can be successfully completed with local anesthesia only. In general, your implant surgery will take about an hour.

Depending on your dental history, existing implants, and bone structure, your implant surgery may take more than one appointment. Over the course of 3 to 6 months, the implant will fuse with your jawbone, providing superior stability, preservation, and function.

A post-operative appointment will be scheduled 1 to 2 weeks after your surgery so that Dr. Clark can monitor your healing process, remove any sutures, and provide additional instructions.

If you have any concerns during the healing process, please do not hesitate to call the office at (916) 783-0122 . Dr. Clark and the rest of the staff are committed to supporting your oral and overall health every step of the way.

Dental Implants FAQs in Roseville, CA

A dental implant is a titanium or ceramic post surgically placed in the jawbone to replace a missing tooth’s root, supporting a crown, bridge, or denture for a natural and durable restoration.

Ideal candidates have good oral and overall health, adequate jawbone density, and healthy gums. Those with bone loss may require bone grafting before implant placement.

With proper care, implants can last a lifetime, though the attached crown, bridge, or denture may need replacement every 20-50 years if planned appropriately.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia or sedation, so it is painless. Some post-operative soreness is normal but can be managed with over-the-counter pain relief.

The full process, including healing and osseointegration (fusion with the bone), typically takes 3-6 months, though same-day implants may be possible in some cases with some implants healing faster.

Yes, implants:

  • Preserve bone and prevent facial collapse.
  • Do not damage adjacent teeth like bridges.
  • Provide superior stability compared to dentures.
  • Function and feel like natural teeth.

Dental implants have a 95-98% success rate, depending on factors like oral hygiene, medical conditions, and smoking habits.

Maintain regular brushing, flossing, and dental checkups. Avoid smoking and excessive force (like grinding) to ensure long-term success.

While rare, implant failure can occur due to infection (peri-implantitis), poor healing, smoking, or insufficient bone integration. Also, certain strains of bacteria can increase the risk for failure. Proper care and intervention minimize this risk.

Costs vary but typically range from $3,000 to $6,000 per implant, including the post, abutment, and crown. Insurance coverage varies but may apply in some cases.
