Missing a tooth (or several) is more than just a “gap” in your smile—it’s a missing piece of your quality of life. Whether it’s avoiding your favorite steak at a Chula Vista BBQ or feeling hesitant to laugh in photos, missing teeth take a toll.
At Chula Vista Periodontics, we believe you shouldn’t have to “just get used to it.” We provide the most advanced implant dentistry for missing teeth in Chula Vista, focusing on biological precision and long-term success. As the most sought-after specialist office in the South Bay, we don’t just replace teeth; we restore your confidence.
Implant Dentistry for Missing Teeth in Chula Vista
Why Missing Teeth Are a “Silent” Health Risk
When a tooth is lost, the jawbone underneath it begins to “melt away” (atrophy) because it no longer receives stimulation from chewing. This can lead to:
Facial Collapse: A “sunken” appearance that makes you look older than you are.
Shifting Teeth: Neighbors lean into the gap, causing bite issues and potential TMJ pain.
Increased Decay: Gaps are harder to clean, often leading to gum disease in the remaining teeth.
The Implant Dentistry Advantage
Dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that actually saves your jawbone. By mimicking the natural root, permanent dental implants stop bone loss in its tracks.
The Specialist Edge: Why Choose Chula Vista Periodontics?
Because we are a specialist office, we handle the most complex cases that general dentists often refer out. When you choose Dr. Susan Nguyen, you aren’t just getting an implant; you’re getting a Board-Certified surgical plan.
Advanced Bone Prep: If you’ve been told you don’t have enough bone, we offer sinus lifts and ridge augmentation.
Holistic PRF Healing: We use Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) to use your own body’s growth factors for faster integration.
Infection Control: We ensure your gums are healthy first, often using LANAP® laser technology to clear any existing periodontal disease.
Sedation Comfort: We offer IV sedation for a completely stress-free experience.
Making Your New Smile a Reality
We know that modern dentistry is an investment. We provide clear, transparent pricing and help you navigate dental insurance and financing options through CareCredit. We even help patients understand how Medicare Advantage Part C can assist with implant costs.
