Missing a tooth, or losing faith in a denture?
Maybe one tooth came out years ago and you’ve been chewing on the other side ever since, or your denture moves when you talk. You might just want to know your options before anyone asks you to commit.
A dental implant is a small titanium post placed in the jawbone to replace a missing tooth root. Once it heals, it supports a crown, a bridge, or a full set of teeth that stay put. Vallejo dental implants from our office are planned on a 3D CBCT scan and placed with a printed surgical guide, so the position is decided before surgery, not during it.
Implant treatments we offer
Which option fits comes down to how many teeth are missing and how much bone there is to work with.

Costs & Coverage
The cost of a dental implant depends on how many implants you need, whether bone grafting comes first, and what sits on top: a single crown, a bridge, or a full arch.
We don’t quote a number before we’ve seen your scan, because a case that needs a sinus lift costs more than one that doesn’t. After your consultation you’ll know the full cost. No surprise bills.
We’re out of network with every dental plan, and we still use your benefits. We check your coverage, file the claim, and tell you what your plan will reimburse before you begin.
Dental Care Without Stress or Judgment
We’re proud of the long-lasting results and the happy smiles that tell our story best.
Frequently asked questions
-
How much do dental implants cost in Vallejo?
It depends on the number of implants, any grafting, and the type of restoration, so we give you a full price after your CBCT scan and exam, not before. CareCredit, Cherry, and Sunbit monthly plans are available, and our $35-a-month savings plan takes 10% off treatment.
-
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
Most healthy adults with healthy gums are candidates. Bone loss doesn’t rule you out; it may mean grafting first. Smoking, uncontrolled diabetes, and some medications can slow healing, so we’ll ask about them. Your CBCT scan gives the real answer.
-
How long does the implant process take?
Plan on three to six months from placement to final crown, most of it healing at home while the implant fuses with the bone. An extraction or bone graft first adds a few months. Vallejo dental implants placed with a surgical guide follow a plan set at your first visit, so you’ll know your timeline early.
-
Does dental insurance cover implants?
Many PPO plans cover part of implant treatment, often the crown or the extraction, up to the plan’s yearly maximum. We’re out of network with every plan and still file your claims and tell you what your plan will reimburse before you decide.
-
Does implant surgery hurt, and what’s recovery like?
We place the implant under local anesthetic, with free nitrous oxide if you’re nervous. Guided surgery is precise and brief, so most people describe a few days of mild soreness managed with over-the-counter pain relief and soft foods. Many return to work the next day.
