Full-Arch Replacements
Here at our San Diego dental office, we offer implant-supported bridges for full-arch restorations, which bring all the benefits of dental implants to rejuvenate your smile. A full-arch implant solution can replace an entire arch of missing teeth in either your upper or lower jaw.
With our implant-supported bridges, you’ll receive great advantages such as they:
- Look and function like natural teeth.
- Are a cost-effective way to get all of your teeth back.
- Protect your jaw from bone loss.
- Offer greater comfort and stability than a traditional bridge.
One of our most popular options for a full-arch restoration is “Teeth in a Day,” which allows our patients to attain their newly restored smile in just one day. Dr. Henninger can see if same-day implants are right for you during your initial consultation at our Vista practice. We’re also happy to see patients from surrounding areas in San Diego County such as Oceanside, Carlsbad, and Encinitas.
Snap-On Dentures
Traditional dentures use suction and adhesive to stay in place, but they often have limited functionality because they move around often and are uncomfortable. We offer an improved solution to traditional dentures with snap-on dentures using dental implants.
With this affordable alternative to stabilize dentures, Dr. Henninger can help enhance your speech and empower you to eat all your favorite foods again without any difficulty.
Snap-on dentures are anchored to the jaw using dental implants which eliminates soreness in the gums and provides better stability for your denture restoration.
With snap-on dentures, you won’t have to worry about a loose-fitting denture any longer. Instead, you’ll be able to showcase your new beautiful, natural-looking smile and exude your confidence to the ones you love.
Implant Solution FAQs
Are dental implants a permanent solution for tooth loss?
If you’re looking for a lifelong tooth replacement in San Diego, look no further than dental implants. Dental implant fixtures are inserted directly into the jawbone, providing a sturdy and permanent solution for tooth loss. Implant fixtures integrate naturally into your jaw through osseointegration, enhancing their durability and function.
Once the implant properly fuses with your bone, we can place your final dental restoration. Your restoration will typically need replacing after about 15 years, though dental implants can last a lifetime with proper care and maintenance.
What types of dental implant solutions are there?
For your convenience, our Vista dentist offers a variety of dental implant solutions. Depending on the number of implant fixtures you require, we have the dental implant solution to fit your needs. Our implant solutions include:
- Single and multi-tooth replacements
- Snap-on dentures
- Teeth-in-a-Day
- Full arch replacements
Each implant solution is designed to act as a tooth root and can help restore health, functionality, and confidence in your smile. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Henninger to learn which solution is best for you.
What types of dental implant fixtures are there?
There are two main types of dental implant fixtures:
- Endosteal implants are placed directly in the jawbone.
- Subperiosteal implants are placed under the gum and are for patients who may need bone augmentation.
Both implant fixtures provide sturdy foundations for implant restorations and involve virtually painless placement procedures. As the best provider of implant dentistry solutions in San Diego, Dr. Henninger will determine which type of implant you’ll need after he conducts an oral examination.
Which implant solution looks the most discreet?
No matter which implant solution you receive, our San Diego implant dentist will ensure it blends seamlessly with your smile. Because dental implant fixtures are inserted into the jawbone, they align perfectly with your natural teeth for a flawless appearance. Your restoration will also match the shape, size, and color of your surrounding teeth. No one will be able to tell the difference.
How long does it take to recover from a dental implant treatment?
Your recovery time will depend on several factors, such as which implant solution you received and your oral health. Typically, dental implants will successfully integrate into your jawbone and heal within four to six months.
During this time, a process known as osseointegration takes place. Osseointegration ensures your implants naturally fuse into your jawbone so you’ll no longer suffer from bone loss. Dr. Henninger will provide you with an estimated treatment timeline at your initial consultation.
Does insurance cover dental implant treatments?
We recommend that you contact your dental insurance provider beforehand to learn what coverage your plan provides. Because we believe all patients deserve affordable dental care, we accept several dental insurance PPOs, CareCredit, and Medicare. Visit our financing page to learn more.
