Missing teeth can make it difficult to eat and speak. When left untreated, tooth loss can even lead to sunken facial features and other problems.
Dental implants replace tooth roots and support replacement teeth to prevent these issues.

The Basics of Dental Implants HOW IMPLANTS, ABUTMENTS, AND RESTORATIONS REPLACE TEETH
Implant
A dental implant is a titanium screw that is placed in the jawbone. It replaces natural tooth roots after tooth loss.
Abutment
The abutment is connected to the dental implant. It secures the dental crown, bridge, or denture to the implant.
Restoration
A crown, bridge, or denture replaces the natural teeth above the gum line. They are designed to look and feel like the real thing.
The Benefits of Receiving Dental Implants
Complete Smile
Dental implants can support restorations that replace one tooth, several teeth, or entire arches of natural teeth. Our Los Algodones, Mexico, dental clinic can restore all levels of tooth loss, completing your smile no matter how many teeth you’re missing.
Restored Function
The dental crowns, bridges, and dentures that dental implants can support allow you to speak, bite, and chew with ease. You may even be able to reintroduce more nutritious foods into your diet, leading to improved overall wellness.
Improved Confidence
When you have a complete smile, you may feel more comfortable in social situations. You won’t feel the need to cover your mouth when you speak or feel self-conscious when meeting new people.
Prevent Bone Atrophy
When you lose a tooth, the bone tissue around that tooth will atrophy. This can cause surrounding teeth to shift out of place and lead to the distortion of facial features. Dental implants are a unique dentistry solution that can prevent this bone atrophy when placed promptly.

Just completed my second visit here. Received a number of crowns and an “all on four” on my upper. Very pleased with the results. The staff here, from the cleaning crew to the doctors, are excellent. Can’t speak of the other clinics here in Los Algodones. But from my own personal experience I would highly recommend Marietta.

Jose Sanchez
Very good work. I am happy with my 12 implants!
Socorro Ramirez
I regained my smile, they were the nicest people there, be back in 4 months.
See How Dental Implants Work
The dental implant is surgically inserted directly into the jawbone. This post acts as an artificial tooth root to provide the jaw with the stimulation it needs to remain healthy. A custom dental crown, bridge, or denture is then attached directly to the implant for maximum stability.
Exploring Your eligibility
FOR DENTAL IMPLANTS
Before you can receive implants from our Los Algodones, Mexico, office, you must meet some requirements:
Be In Good Health
Patients must be in good overall health so they can heal from their implant placement surgery and have a lower risk of developing complications.
Don’t Use Nicotine
Nicotine products inhibit the body’s ability to heal itself, so you should quit using them altogether to ensure a successful recovery after your implant surgery.
Have Enough Jawbone Tissue
Candidates must have enough existing jawbone tissue to support dental implants. Procedures like bone grafting and sinus lifts can replenish lost tissue and improve your candidacy.
Be Committed to Treatment
This dental work requires a few appointments with our dentist and a lengthy healing period. Patients must understand how long their treatment will take and be prepared for it.
The Dental Implant Process
WHAT TO EXPECT IN LOS ALGODONES, MEXICO
We do everything in our power to keep costs low and make treatment easy, whether you need to replace one tooth or a whole mouth of teeth.
Planning
Your dentist in Tijuana or Los Algodones, Mexico, will take a CT scan of your mouth to plan your implant placement surgery.
Anesthesia
Before your surgery, you will receive local anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout your treatment. Calming sedation is also available upon request.
Implant
An incision will be made in your gums and the implant will be placed using precise surgical guides. The gums will then be sutured closed and a temporary restoration will be placed so you’re never without a functional smile.
Healing Period
You will have to allow your treatment site to heal for four to six months. During this time, your titanium implant will fuse to the jawbone in a process called osseointegration.
Abutment
When osseointegration is complete, our dentist can place your abutment. You will then require another healing period of about four to six weeks.
Restoration
Once your gums have healed, you can receive your restoration. Your dentist will ensure proper fit and function before securing your new dentistry solution in place.
Our PIC System
PROVIDES PRECISION
In addition to the CT scans, panoramic X-rays, and surgical guides used for implant planning and placement, our clinic also uses state-of-the-art technology when it comes time for your restoration. We use the Precise Implant Capture (PIC) system to take high-precision digital impressions of your implants and soft tissues. This precise digital modeling lets us design restorations with a perfect fit.
I had major restorative surgery, teeth removal, 5 on 5 implants and temporary teeth attached. The clinic is extremely clean, the staff are very professional, kind and thorough. I’ve had little to no pain and am looking forward to getting the final step done in 6 months and I will follow up my review at that time. Dr. Christian was wonderful, caring and did a great job. I can’t tell you how wonderful it is to smile again. Yanni Z
Have Limited Bone Density?
WE HAVE SOLUTIONS
Traditional full-arch dentures require a strong jawbone to support several implants. Patients with widespread tooth loss, however, also often have bone atrophy. Thankfully, we offer several solutions to restore these patients’ smiles without the added time and expense of rebuilding lost bone tissue.
One of our most popular methods is All-on-4®. This method can support an entire denture on just four implants placed in strategic areas of your dental arch with the most bone density. Our dentist in Los Algodones can determine if you’re a good candidate for this innovative dental work during your free consultation.
Take a Look at All-on-4 Dental Implants
Using the All-on-4 method, your dentist will place four dental implants along your arch. Two of these posts are placed at strategic angles to maximize your existing bone material. I many cases, patients can forgo preparatory bone grafting using the All-on-4 method.

THE LIFE-CHANGING POWER OF DENTAL IMPLANTS
All-on-4 dental implants can completely revitalize your ability to chew, speak, and smile, often without the need for preparatory bone grafting. Just see what they did for Hilario, one of our satisfied patients:
Other Solutions We Offer…
TO RESTORE A FULL ARCH
All-on-6
All-on-6 is similar to All-on-4. However, instead of using four implants along a single arch, your dentist will place six in the jaw for added stability. All-on-6 offers an option for many patients with low jawbone density to receive an implant-supported denture without bone grafting.
3 on 6
The 3 on 6™ technique uses three dental bridges supported by six implants to restore a full arch of teeth. While All-on-4 dentures are set in an artificial gumline, 3 on 6 shows the patient’s natural gums. Patients with advanced bone atrophy may not qualify for 3 on 6.
Frequently Asked Questions
ABOUT DENTAL IMPLANTS
How do I know which treatment option is best for me?
During your consultation at our Los Algodones dental practice, your dental team will evaluate your mouth to determine your treatment options and develop a custom treatment plan designed for your specific needs.
Does implant placement hurt?
No. You will be thoroughly numbed before treatment begins to ensure you are completely comfortable throughout the procedure. We also offer IV sedation, which creates a deep sense of relaxation and calm; though you will remain conscious, most patients do not remember their procedure afterward.
How long will my dental implants last?
Dental implants are made of durable titanium and are designed to last a lifetime. It is important to remember that your denture, crown, or dental bridge will wear over time and will eventually need to be replaced. However, with proper care and maintenance, your restoration can last for up to 15 years or more.
Do you place immediate restorations at your dental clinic?
No. We believe that placing implants and dentures in two stages provides better results long term. It takes about four to six months for the implants to heal and fuse to the jawbone. Once this healing period is complete, your implants will provide a solid foundation for your new smile.
I have some oral health concerns. Can I still qualify for dental implants?
We want you to enjoy long-lasting and beautiful results for years to come. Good oral health is critical before implant placement. This ensures a healthy foundation for your dental implants and reduces your risk of infection or implant failure. If you have oral health concerns such as tooth decay or gum disease, they must first be addressed before implant surgery can proceed.
Is dental implant surgery in Los Algodones safe?
Yes. Our doctors have extensive education and are accredited by the American Dental Association. Los Algodones itself is considered a safe town to travel to. You can rest assured that you will be safe traveling to and in Los Algodones and that you will be in safe hands under the care of our highly skilled dental team.
