• What makes Redwood City Implant Clinic unique for dental implants?

  At Redwood City Implant Clinic, we utilize advanced computer-guided surgery for precise implant placement, minimizing surgical intervention and maximizing long-term success rates. We also offer various implant materials and techniques to cater to individual needs and budgets.

  We understand cost concerns. Redwood City Implant Clinic works with several patient financing partners to offer flexible payment plans that fit your budget. We’ll discuss financing options during your consultation to make your dream smile a reality.

• Can I get dental implants immediately after a tooth extraction?

  In some cases, depending on bone health and the extraction site, immediate implant placement might be possible. A consultation at Redwood City Implant Clinic will determine if this option is suitable for your situation.

• How will Redwood City Implant Clinic determine the best approach for my full mouth dental implant needs?

  During your consultation, a comprehensive examination will be conducted, including digital X-rays and 3D scans. This allows our team to create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your jawbone anatomy, remaining teeth (if any), and desired outcome.

• Is there a significant difference in recovery time between full mouth dental implants and traditional dentures?

  While both procedures involve healing periods, full mouth dental implants offer a potentially faster return to normalcy. Traditional dentures often require adjustments and relining due to jawbone shrinkage, extending the recovery process.

• What are the long-term benefits of full mouth dental implants compared to full dentures?

  Full mouth dental implants preserve jawbone health and prevent facial collapse associated with missing teeth. They offer superior stability and biting force, allowing you to enjoy a wider variety of foods with confidence. Additionally, they eliminate the need for messy adhesives and the discomfort of loose dentures.

• Does Redwood City Implant Clinic offer wisdom teeth extraction under sedation?

  Patient comfort is our priority. We offer various sedation options, including nitrous oxide and oral or IV sedation, to ensure a relaxed and comfortable experience during wisdom teeth extraction.

• What can I expect after wisdom teeth extraction

  Following wisdom teeth extraction, some swelling, discomfort, and bleeding are normal. Our team will provide detailed post-operative instructions on pain management, wound care, and dietary restrictions to ensure a smooth recovery.

• How does Redwood City Implant Clinic determine the number of implants needed for an implant bridge?

  The number of implants depends on the number of teeth missing and the location in your jaw. For instance, replacing a single missing tooth typically requires one implant, while a bridge replacing multiple teeth might require two or more implants for optimal support and stability.

• Can I customize the aesthetics of my implant bridge at Redwood City Implant Clinic?

  Absolutely! We offer various implant materials and customize the crowns or bridgework to match the color and shape of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and natural-looking smile.
