At Lalume Dental Studio, Dr. Shahira Saad offers advanced dental implant procedures that restore both function and aesthetics. Whether you’ve lost a single tooth or need full arch restoration, our Newport Beach practice combines cutting-edge technology with personalized care to give you back your confidence.
Dental implants are small titanium posts that act as artificial tooth roots. This form of oral surgery is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone to create a strong foundation. The average cost of a single dental implant ranges from $3,000 to $4,500, though this varies based on individual needs and any preliminary procedures required.
Once healed, these implants are restored with custom-made crowns, bridges, or dentures that blend beautifully with your natural smile. Because they mimic the root of a natural tooth and integrate directly with your bone tissue, dental implants are incredibly stable and help preserve your jawbone health, preventing the bone loss that typically occurs after tooth extraction.
Dental implants in Newport Beach give you back your natural function and unshakeable confidence.
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them one of the most reliable solutions for missing teeth. Unlike traditional bridges that may need replacement every 10-15 years, implants offer a permanent tooth replacement solution with success rates exceeding 95%.
By stimulating the jawbone like a natural tooth root, implants prevent bone loss and maintain your facial structure. This stimulation is critical because without it, you can lose up to 25% of jawbone width in the first year after tooth loss, which can change your facial appearance and make future restoration more difficult.
Each restoration is carefully designed to match your existing teeth in color, shape, and alignment—so no one can tell the difference. Unlike removable dentures that can slip or cause discomfort, dental implants function just like your natural teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with complete confidence. For patients needing comprehensive treatment, full mouth rehabilitation with implants can completely transform your smile.
Dr. Saad will begin with a comprehensive exam and digital imaging to determine if you're a good candidate for implants. This includes 3D cone beam CT scans to assess your bone density and structure. If needed, we'll recommend preliminary treatments—like bone grafting—to ensure long-term success.
The implant post will be placed directly into the jawbone with precision and care. Over the next few months, the implant will integrate with the surrounding tissues in a process called osseointegration. This healing period typically takes 3-6 months and is crucial for creating the strong foundation that makes implants so durable.
Once your implant has fully healed, you'll return to our studio for your final restoration. Dr. Saad will place a custom-made crown or prosthetic that looks and functions just like a natural tooth.
We’re here to answer your questions about dental implants.
The entire process typically takes several months. Most of this time is spent allowing the implant to fully heal and fuse with your jawbone before placing the final restoration. Some patients may be candidates for same-day implants or immediate loading, depending on their bone quality and specific circumstances.
The procedure itself is performed under local anesthesia, and most patients experience minimal discomfort. Many patients report that the procedure is less uncomfortable than a tooth extraction. We’ll walk you through post-operative care to keep you comfortable throughout the healing process. Sedation options are also available for anxious patients.
Most healthy adults are candidates for dental implants. Dr. Saad will evaluate your oral health, bone density, and medical history to create a personalized treatment plan that works for you.
The cost of dental implants varies based on the number of teeth being replaced and any preliminary procedures needed, but typically ranges from $3,000 to $4,500 per implant. We offer flexible financing options and accept most dental insurance plans, which may cover a portion of the procedure.
