DENTAL IMPLANTS IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY
According to the American College of Prosthodontists, over 35 million Americans do not have any teeth in their smile, and 120 million are missing at least one tooth. Fortunately, there are many options available to those who are looking to replace their teeth. One such option is single tooth replacements, which can provide a very natural-looking and -feeling result. At SMILE HAUS, we offer both dental implants and fixed bridges as single tooth replacement options.
THE SINGLE TOOTH REPLACEMENT PROCESS
The process begins when a doctor has a consultation appointment with you. During this time, he/she will take an X-ray and potentially a scan of your jawbone to see if it is strong enough to withstand an implant. After the initial visit is over and we’ve established that you are a candidate for a single dental implant, the following will occur during the second visit:
- The doctor will numb your mouth so that you can either get local anesthesia or, depending on your tolerance, be put under.
- Once you are under anesthesia, the doctor will make an incision on the gum and place a bone graft to help the bone heal better around the implant.
- Then, the doctor will place the implant. He/she will do so by screwing in a titanium alloy rod into your gums.
- You will need to heal after the procedure. It takes about four to six months for the implant to fuse to the bone.
- Once the implant has healed, you are ready to get an implant crown placed. This will act as the cap on the tooth, covering up the implant rod and displaying the natural-looking tooth replacement.

I’m looking forward to the exceptional care demonstrated so far.
I had my surgery done in December 2023, and even now, almost 2 years later, Dr. Hotait continues to be incredibly supportive. He’s always available for checkups, answers any questions quickly, and genuinely cares about his patients long after the procedure is done. The quality of his work and his dedication to his patients are unmatched.
