Single & Multiple Dental Implants - Irvine, CA

Here at Guru Dentistry, we are ready to give you the most advanced and natural tooth replacements possible: dental implants. Finally, there’s a method of replacing missing teeth that enables you to forget you ever lost any teeth. 


Dental implants will look and feel more like your natural teeth than any other type of tooth replacement. Titanium posts substitute for the roots of your missing teeth, bonding to the bone in your jaw. Then, durable white crowns replace the teeth themselves. 


Replacing Single Teeth or Bridges


Do you need to replace a single tooth or several teeth in a row? We can use dental implants to anchor a single crown or an entire dental bridge. 


When creating your replacement teeth, Dr. Vanila will carefully match the shape, size and color to your natural teeth. If you need to replace missing teeth, call us to learn more about dental implants!

FAQ About Dental Implants

  • What are dental implants?

    Dental implants are the ultimate tooth replacement. They replace the missing tooth and roots.

  • What conditions would cause a dentist to recommend dental implants?

    The conditions which cause a dentist to recommend dental implants are when a patient is missing a tooth or the tooth is non-restorable, meaning the tooth is dying and the prognosis is not good. Aesthetically, when we need a tooth, then we do dental implants.

  • What is the process I will go through if I decide to get dental implants?

    We usually start with a CT scan to check the density of the bone, the height and width of the bone, and what size the implant is going to fit in. Then the doctor does a visual exam and checks your bite, your function, your joint and takes a thorough medical history to make a specific, customized treatment plan.

  • What are the steps in the process of placing a dental implant?

    The steps are tooth removal, jaw bone preparation, dental implant placement, bone growth and healing, abutment placement, and artificial tooth placement.

  • When would bone graft be recommended?

    Bone graft is recommended in cases when there is thin bone or during the placement of the implant we have to add extra density around it. We also place the bone graft when we are taking out teeth to preserve bone height and width.

  • When choosing a new artificial tooth, what options will I have and what are the pros and cons of each removable or fixed?

    We only use fixed teeth on implants. The artificial tooth should match the adjacent teeth. We select the shade to be very natural to how your teeth are, so it doesn't look out of place.

  • How long does it typically take to recover from a dental implant?

    Most of the time, there is only discomfort for the first four to five days. After that, there is no discomfort. The discomfort can be taken care of with proper post-op care, such as taking over-the-counter medications or some strong pain medications.

  • How long do dental implants last?

    If maintained properly, the dental implants can last for the rest of your life.

  • Can dental implants get cavities?

    Dental implants don't have any biological natural tooth so they cannot get any cavities.

  • What are the cost and financing options involved with dental implants?

    Dental implants cost around four to six thousand dollars depending on the surgery. We do have financing options available through third-party financing, where we can do interest-free financing or some payment plans depending on your credit score.

Dental Implant Crowns

Dental implant crowns are meticulously crafted tooth restorations that serve as the visible and functional component of a dental implant.


Custom-made to match the size, shape, and color of the patient's natural teeth, implant crowns seamlessly blend into the smile, enhancing its aesthetics. These crowns are securely attached to the dental implant, which acts as a strong foundation within the jawbone.


With their durable materials and precise fit, dental implant crowns provide long-lasting results, allowing individuals to regain the ability to bite, chew, and speak with confidence. They not only restore the appearance of a complete smile but also contribute to overall oral health and a sense of well-being.

Dental Implant Bridges

Dental implant bridges are a fixed dental restoration used to replace multiple missing teeth.


Unlike partial dentures, which are removable, implant bridges are permanently attached to dental implants, providing stability and functionality similar to natural teeth. Implant bridges offer several advantages over partial dentures, including enhanced comfort, improved speech and chewing ability, and better aesthetics. They also prevent bone loss in the jaw and eliminate the need for messy adhesives.


While partial dentures may require regular adjustments and replacements, implant bridges are a long-term solution that can last a lifetime with proper care. Dental implant bridges offer a more durable, natural-looking, and hassle-free option for restoring missing teeth.
