Restore Your Healthy Smile

At Pomerado Family Dental, we offer state-of-the-art solutions for your dental needs to help you restore a complete, healthy, and beautiful smile.

Today, dental implants represent the most advanced system for the replacement of missing teeth. While conventional fixed bridges and dentures remain effective and satisfying ways to replace missing teeth, dental implants come the closest to replicating the look, feel, and function of a natural smile.

Boost Confidence with Dental Implants

With dental implants, you can once again enjoy all your favorite foods and speak and smile with renewed confidence and ease.

Because implants behave in much the same way as the roots of natural teeth, they provide unrivaled stability for the placement of a broad range of dental prostheses, including crowns and bridges up to a complete set of teeth.

Dental Implant Procedure Process 

The process of dental implants is a comprehensive and precise procedure that involves several stages.

Oral Examination

At Pomerado Family Dental, we begin by conducting a thorough examination and assessment of your oral health and bone structure.

We use 3D CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) to aid in precise implant planning and evaluation of dental infections. By going through this extra step, we can see high-resolution, three-dimensional images of your mouth, and bone density which allow us to make better decisions for your oral health. Another incredible benefits is minimizing patient’s exposure to radiation by about 98%.

For patients with insufficient bone volume in the jaw, bone grafting may be recommended before implant placement. The bone grafting procedure involves adding bone material to the targeted area, promoting bone growth, and creating a solid foundation for the implants.

Implant Placement

Once the bone graft has integrated and healed, the next step is the implant placement. Our skilled dentists carefully position the titanium posts into the jawbone, acting as artificial tooth roots. Over a few months, the implants naturally fuse with the surrounding bone through a process called osseointegration.

People heal and progress at different rates, so the exact amount of time will vary a bit person to person within that 3 – 5 month time frame.

Custom-made Dental Attachments

After the healing period, the final phase involves attaching custom-made dental crowns, bridges, or dentures to the implants, restoring your smile to its full function, beauty, and confidence.

Throughout the entire process, our compassionate team ensures your comfort and satisfaction, providing personalized care tailored to your needs.

Need Implants with Dentures?

Enhanced Dental Experience

By strategically placing dental implants in the jawbone and attaching them securely to the dentures, we provide much-needed stability and retention to your prosthetic teeth.

This innovative approach not only ensures a snug fit but also significantly improves the overall comfort, making it feel more like your natural teeth. Dental implants also create a firm foundation, eliminating any potential awkward moments in social interactions.

Comfortable and Natural Solution

For patients who wear full dentures, Pomerado Family Dental offers a remarkable solution with dental implants to enhance their overall dental experience.

We understand that wearing conventional dentures may sometimes lead to discomfort and potential embarrassment due to slipping or moving out of place while speaking or eating. That’s where dental implants come to the rescue!

Missing teeth do more than cause embarrassing gaps in your smile. For one thing, they can also affect your ability to speak or chew nutritious food with ease.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implants

Dental implants are titanium posts placed into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. They create a stable foundation for crowns or bridges and help preserve bone and chewing function. At Pomerado Family Dental in Poway, implants are designed to look, feel, and function like natural teeth.

Adults with healthy gums and adequate jawbone support are often strong candidates for implants. We welcome patients not only from Poway but also from nearby communities like Rancho BernardoScripps Ranch, and 4S Ranch. If bone density is limited, procedures such as dental bone grafting may be recommended to support long-term implant success.

With proper home care and regular exams, dental implants can last decades — often a lifetime. Routine preventive care, including professional dental cleanings, helps protect the surrounding gum tissue and bone.

While implants are highly durable and natural-looking, they do require a surgical procedure and healing period. They may also involve additional steps if bone loss is present. During your consultation at Pomerado Family Dental, we’ll review all benefits and considerations so you can make an informed decision.

The cost of a full set of implants varies based on how many teeth are being replaced and whether additional procedures are needed. For patients considering full-arch restoration, we provide personalized estimates and review coverage details on our insurance information page.

Implant placement is performed under local anesthesia to keep the procedure comfortable. Most patients report mild soreness afterward rather than significant pain. For those who feel anxious, we offer support through our  sedation dentistry services.

Implants are anchored directly into the jawbone, while dental bridges rely on adjacent teeth for support, and dentures rest on the gums. Implants typically provide the most stable and long-term solution.

The best way to determine candidacy is through a personalized consultation at Pomerado Family Dental in Poway. We evaluate your oral health, bone support, and long-term goals before recommending a treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Dental implant placement is performed under local anesthesia, so the procedure itself is comfortable. Most patients describe the recovery as mild soreness rather than significant pain. For added relaxation, we also offer Sedation Dentistry to make the experience easier.

The full dental implant process typically takes several months. After the implant is placed, the bone needs time to integrate with it — a process called osseointegration. In some cases, a temporary restoration can be placed the same day. Once healing is complete, a permanent crown is attached. Advanced imaging such as Digital Radiography helps us plan each step precisely.

Most patients return to normal activities within 1–2 days. Minor swelling or tenderness is common but temporary. Healing beneath the surface continues for several months as the implant fuses with the bone. If additional procedures such as Dental Bone Grafting are required, recovery time may vary.

Dental implants have a success rate of over 95%. However, failure can occur if there is inadequate bone support, infection, or poor oral hygiene. Maintaining regular Dental Cleanings and monitoring gum health through Periodontal Treatment helps protect your investment.
