Dental implants are metal posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone under your gums to provide a permanent base for fixed, replacement teeth. Compared to crowns, bridges and dentures, dental implants are an effective long-term solution for people who suffer from missing teeth. Because they feel, fit and function just like natural teeth. Dental implants have become the new standard in tooth replacement.
Because implants actually fuse to your living bone cells of the jaw, they provide a strong and durable support for your new teeth. Crowns, bridges and dentures mounted to implants won't slip or shift in your mouth. This secure fit helps the individual crown placed over the implant as well as dentures and bridges feel more natural. This is an especially important benefit when eating and speaking. There is no need to repair them and no more worrying about smiling.
Occasionally a patient is missing several teeth, but still has healthy gums and surrounding teeth. In this case an implant-supported bridge can replace them. Two fixtures are implanted and the bridge is attached, leaving other natural teeth intact. In addition to looking and functioning like natural teeth, an implant-supported bridge replaces teeth without support from adjacent natural teeth.
Napa Dental Implant Center also offers Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) treatment. PRF is the use of one's own enriched blood to help accelerate the healing process where the dental implant is placed. PRF also decreases surgical pain and improves the strength of the bone's structural and functional connection to the dental implant.

Staff is very rude.

I wish everyone that needs one or more implant(s) will talk to Dr. Azizi and Dr. Gasper before going anywhere else. I was a dental patient of Dr. Azizi for only a couple of months when I had an awful bike accident and broke a front tooth off at the root. I got in to see Dr. Azizi immediately and she provided a compassionate and highly skilled assessment and description of how my front tooth could be replaced with an implant. Dr. Gasper is an absolute artist with surgical precision and is an extremely kind as she provided the necessary bone and skin grafts. (This is not always necessary, but was in my case) My journey ended very close to the projected end date and resulted in a beautiful new tooth that exactly matches the other. I have had no problems what so ever with my implant. I cannot thank the entire staff enough for how thoughtful and calming they were while I went through the process.
