Dental Implants from Dr. Joseph Valle in Santa Cruz

Dental implants are the natural-looking replacement solution to one or more missing teeth. Since implants are permanently anchored into the jawbone, this "fixed" cosmetic dentistry solution offered by Santa Cruz's Joseph Valle, D.D.S. allows for better chewing than removable dentures.

Dental implants form a chemical and mechanical bond with your jawbone and become a part of your natural teeth - so much that the jawbone actually grows into the implant! Dr. Valle can analyze your individual situation and determine if your oral tissues are healthy enough and your jawbone is in good enough shape to withstand the implant. If not, he will be happy to recommend another dental makeover solution!

These images show the dramatic impact dental implants can make on nearly any smile, even right here in Santa Cruz. Implants are a perfect fit and look as good - if not better - than your original teeth!
