About Dental Implants
Dental implants offer an excellent solution for individuals with missing teeth, providing a durable and aesthetically pleasing restoration that closely mimics the look and function of natural teeth.

What are dental implants?
Dental implants are precisely engineered titanium posts, surgically inserted into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. The titanium material integrates with the bone through a process known as osseointegration, creating a secure and stable foundation for the restoration. This fusion not only ensures long-term durability but also allows for natural, worry-free eating and smiling. In many cases, dental implants are designed to last a lifetime.
Once the implant has fully healed, your dentist at The Center for Adult Dentistry in Temecula can complete the restoration with a custom artificial tooth or "crown", providing a seamless and functional replacement.
What are the benefits of dental implants?
Dental implants are highly popular as dental restorations because of their many advantages over traditional tooth replacement solutions, such as dentures. Top on the list of benefits of implants is that dental implants are permanent and fuse with the bone. As such, dental implants provide a long-term solution for tooth replacement. Dental implants also restore the feel, look and function of natural teeth, allowing you to chew, smile and talk confidently and naturally.

What is the process for dental implant placement?
Dental implant surgery at The Center for Adult Dentistry, conveniently located in Temecula and La Quinta, CA, is a personalized procedure that can vary depending on the patient's specific needs. However, the process typically involves three key phases:
-
Dental Implant Surgery – During the initial surgery, your dentist will use specialized instruments to create a small incision in the jawbone to prepare for the implant. The titanium post is then carefully placed into the jawbone with precision to ensure optimal stability.
-
Healing Phase – The second phase allows the jawbone to heal and integrate with the implant through a process called osseointegration. This healing period typically takes between three to nine months, depending on individual healing rates.
-
Restoration Phase – Once the implant has fully integrated, Dr. Cutts will attach the abutment (connector) and place the final restoration, which may be a crown, bridge, or denture. This fitting generally takes about an hour and may require a second minor surgical procedure, depending on the specific treatment plan.
This comprehensive approach ensures a secure, long-lasting result tailored to the unique needs of each patient.
