Dental Implants in Granada Hills, CA

Our implant care is led by Dr. Jonathan Akhavan, a board-certified periodontist and implant specialist who completed his residency at NYU. Treatment begins with a thorough evaluation and imaging to confirm you are a good candidate. The titanium post is then placed in the jawbone under local anesthesia and given a few months to fuse with the bone. Once healing is complete, a connecting abutment and a custom crown, bridge, or denture are added to complete your restoration. For patients with insufficient bone, bone grafting can prepare the area for a successful implant.

Missing teeth can make chewing and speaking difficult and, over time, lead to jawbone loss and the shifting of surrounding teeth. Because an implant replaces the tooth root, it helps preserve the jawbone and keeps neighboring teeth from drifting out of place. The result is a stable, long-lasting tooth replacement that supports both your appearance and your oral health.

Healthy gums and adequate bone are key to a successful implant, which is why our first step is always a careful examination. Patients from Granada Hills, North Hills, and Northridge trust our team for expert implant care. Call (818) 363-0200 to find out whether dental implants are right for you.
