About Fusion Dental Implants

With over 18 years of experience and a team of the best board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons, Fusion Dental Implants is dedicated to providing the highest quality dental implant care in Northern California.

Our practice specializes in full-arch dental implant solutions including All-on-4 and All-on-6 procedures, single tooth implants, implant-supported dentures, and complex bone grafting cases.

Our state-of-the-art facilities feature cone beam CT scanning, digital treatment planning, and an in-house dental laboratory that enables same-day teeth procedures.

We understand that dental implants are a significant investment in your health and quality of life. That is why we offer flexible financing — single-tooth implants from $60/month, All-on-4 full arch from $250/month — accept most major dental insurance plans, and provide a price-match guarantee.

Every patient receives a complimentary consultation with a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to their specific needs and budget.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to the most common questions about dental implants, our procedures, costs, and what to expect at Fusion Dental Implants. Still have questions? Contact us for a free consultation.

How much do dental implants cost at Fusion Dental Implants?

Dental implant costs vary based on the type of restoration needed. Single tooth implants start at approximately $3,500, implant-supported dentures begin around $12,000, and full-arch All-on-4 solutions start at $21,000 per arch.

We offer a price-match guarantee and flexible monthly financing — single tooth from $60/month, full arch from $250/month. During your free consultation, we provide a detailed treatment plan with transparent pricing and no hidden fees.

What is the All-on-4 dental implant procedure?

All-on-4 is a revolutionary full-arch dental implant technique that replaces an entire arch of teeth using just four strategically placed titanium implants. The procedure is designed so that patients can receive a complete set of fixed, non-removable teeth in a single day.

Two implants are placed vertically in the front of the jaw and two are angled at up to 45 degrees in the back, maximizing bone contact and often eliminating the need for bone grafting.

At Fusion Dental Implants, our board-certified oral surgeons have performed thousands of successful All-on-4 procedures.

How long do dental implants last?

With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. The titanium implant post that is surgically placed into the jawbone integrates with the bone through a process called osseointegration, creating a permanent foundation.

The implant crown or prosthetic typically lasts 15 to 25 years before it may need replacement due to normal wear.

At Fusion Dental Implants, we use premium zirconia restorations, with our full-arch zirconia prosthetics backed by a lifetime structural warranty, and our in-house lab ensures each restoration is crafted for maximum durability and aesthetics.

Am I a candidate for dental implants?

Most adults with good general health are candidates for dental implants. During your complimentary consultation, our surgeons evaluate your jawbone density using advanced 3D cone beam CT imaging, review your medical history, and assess your oral health.

Even patients who have been told they do not have enough bone for implants may be candidates through bone grafting procedures, zygomatic implants, or the All-on-4 technique which utilizes existing bone more efficiently.

Conditions like diabetes, smoking, and osteoporosis require special consideration but do not automatically disqualify you.

What is the recovery time after dental implant surgery?

Recovery varies depending on the complexity of the procedure. For single implant placement, most patients return to normal activities within one to two days, with mild soreness lasting three to five days.

For full-arch procedures like All-on-4, patients typically experience moderate swelling for three to five days and are comfortable enough to eat soft foods the same day they receive their temporary teeth.

Full osseointegration, where the implant fuses with the jawbone, takes three to six months, during which you wear a functional temporary restoration.

Do you offer financing for dental implants?

Yes, we offer several flexible financing options to make dental implants affordable. Our monthly payment plans start as low as $60/month for single-tooth implants, $150/month for implant-supported dentures, and $250/month for All-on-4 full-arch restorations.

We partner with leading healthcare financing companies to offer plans with competitive interest rates and terms up to 84 months. We also accept most major dental insurance plans, including PPO plans, and our team helps maximize your insurance benefits.

Every patient receives a clear breakdown of costs during their free consultation.

What makes Fusion Dental Implants different from other providers?

Several factors set Fusion Dental Implants apart. Our practice is led by board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons with specialized training in implantology.

We operate our own in-house dental laboratory, which allows us to provide same-day teeth and ensures the highest quality custom restorations. Our lifetime warranty on full-arch zirconia prosthetics demonstrates our confidence in our work.

We offer a price-match guarantee, and our four convenient Northern California locations in Roseville, El Dorado Hills, Folsom, and Rocklin make access easy for patients throughout the region.

What are the advantages of dental implants over dentures?

Dental implants offer several significant advantages over traditional removable dentures. Implants are permanently fixed in place, so they do not slip, click, or require adhesive.

They preserve jawbone density by stimulating the bone just like natural tooth roots, preventing the facial collapse and bone loss that occurs with dentures over time. Implant patients can eat all their favorite foods without restriction, speak clearly without worry, and smile with confidence.

While the initial investment is higher than dentures, implants are more cost-effective long-term because they do not need to be replaced every five to seven years like dentures typically do.

Understanding Dental Implants

Dental implants have transformed modern dentistry, offering a permanent solution for missing teeth that looks, feels, and functions like your natural smile. Explore the topics below to learn how implants work, what materials we use, and how to plan your treatment with confidence.

Types of Dental Implants Explained

Dental implants come in several varieties designed to address different clinical needs.

Endosteal implants are the most common type and are placed directly into the jawbone, typically made from biocompatible titanium that fuses with your natural bone over three to six months through a process called osseointegration.

These implants serve as artificial tooth roots and can support single crowns, bridges, or full-arch prosthetics depending on how many teeth need replacement.

For patients who lack sufficient bone height in the upper jaw, zygomatic implants offer an advanced alternative. These longer implants anchor into the dense cheekbone (zygoma) rather than the maxilla, eliminating the need for bone grafting procedures that can add months to treatment timelines.

At Fusion Dental Implants, our oral surgeons have extensive training in zygomatic implant placement, making this option available to patients who have been told they are not candidates for traditional implants.

Subperiosteal implants rest on top of the jawbone beneath the gum tissue rather than being embedded within the bone. While less common today due to advances in bone grafting technology, they remain an option for patients with significant bone loss who prefer to avoid grafting.

Mini dental implants, which are smaller in diameter than standard implants, are often used to stabilize lower dentures or in areas with limited bone width.

Your surgeon will recommend the implant type best suited to your specific anatomy, bone density, and treatment goals during your comprehensive consultation.

The Dental Implant Process Step by Step

The dental implant journey begins with a thorough diagnostic evaluation. During your complimentary consultation, your surgeon captures a three-dimensional cone beam CT scan of your jaw, which provides detailed images of bone density, nerve locations, and sinus proximity.

This digital scan is used to create a precise surgical plan, often with computer-guided templates that determine the exact angle, depth, and position of each implant for optimal results and minimal invasiveness.

On the day of surgery, local anesthesia or sedation is administered to ensure complete comfort. For single implant cases, the procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes.

Full-arch procedures like All-on-4, where four implants support an entire arch of teeth, generally take two to three hours per arch. After the implants are placed, a temporary restoration is attached so you leave the office with functional teeth the same day.

Over the following three to six months, the implants integrate with your jawbone to create a permanent foundation.

The final phase involves replacing your temporary teeth with your permanent custom restoration. At Fusion Dental Implants, our in-house dental laboratory crafts each prosthetic from premium zirconia, a material chosen for its exceptional strength, natural translucency, and stain resistance.

Your permanent teeth are designed to match the shape, shade, and contour of natural teeth, and they are precision-fitted to your implants for a secure, comfortable bite that can last decades with proper care.

Materials and Technology in Modern Implant Dentistry

Modern dental implants are manufactured from medical-grade titanium alloy or zirconia ceramic, both of which are biocompatible and accepted by the human body without rejection.

Titanium has a well-documented 50-year track record in implant dentistry and remains the gold standard for implant posts due to its ability to osseointegrate reliably with jawbone tissue.

The surface of each implant is micro-textured or plasma-sprayed to accelerate bone attachment and improve long-term stability.

The prosthetic teeth attached to implants have evolved significantly from the acrylic restorations of the past. Today, monolithic zirconia is the premium material choice for implant-supported crowns and full-arch bridges.

Zirconia offers superior fracture resistance compared to porcelain, does not chip or stain like acrylic, and can be milled with digital precision to achieve a natural, lifelike appearance.

At Fusion Dental Implants, all full-arch restorations are fabricated from zirconia in our on-site laboratory, which allows us to control quality at every step.

Advanced technology plays a critical role in modern implant treatment. Cone beam computed tomography provides three-dimensional jaw imaging at a fraction of the radiation dose of traditional CT scans.

Digital treatment planning software allows surgeons to virtually place implants before the actual procedure, and surgical guide templates transfer this digital plan to the operating room with sub-millimeter accuracy.

Intraoral scanners capture digital impressions without messy impression materials, improving patient comfort and restoration fit. These technologies combine to make implant procedures safer, faster, and more predictable than ever before.

Long-Term Care and Maintenance of Dental Implants

Caring for dental implants is straightforward and similar to caring for natural teeth. Daily brushing twice a day with a soft-bristled toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste removes plaque from the implant surfaces and surrounding gum tissue.

Interdental brushes or a water flosser are recommended for cleaning between implants and under prosthetic bridges where traditional floss may not reach effectively. Antimicrobial mouth rinse can provide additional protection against bacteria that cause peri-implant inflammation.

Professional maintenance visits every six months are essential for long-term implant success. During these appointments, your dental hygienist uses specialized instruments designed for implant surfaces, as metal scalers used on natural teeth can scratch titanium and harbor bacteria.

Your dentist examines the implant, abutment, and restoration for signs of wear, checks the tightness of prosthetic screws, and takes periodic X-rays to monitor bone levels around each implant. Early detection of any changes allows for simple, non-surgical intervention.

While dental implants cannot develop cavities, the surrounding gum tissue is susceptible to a condition called peri-implantitis, which is similar to gum disease around natural teeth. Risk factors include smoking, uncontrolled diabetes, poor oral hygiene, and a history of periodontal disease.

Symptoms to watch for include redness, swelling, or bleeding around the implant site, and any looseness or discomfort should be reported to your dentist immediately.

With consistent home care and regular professional maintenance, dental implants have a documented success rate exceeding 95 percent at the 10-year mark.

Insurance, Financing, and Planning Your Investment

Dental implant costs depend on several factors including the number of implants needed, whether bone grafting is required, the type of prosthetic restoration selected, and the complexity of the individual case.

At Fusion Dental Implants, single tooth implants including the implant post, abutment, and zirconia crown typically range from $3,500 to $5,500. Implant-supported dentures start at approximately $12,000 per arch, and full-arch All-on-4 zirconia restorations begin at $21,000 per arch.

Every estimate is provided in writing during your free consultation with no hidden fees or surprise charges.

Many dental insurance plans now include coverage for implant procedures, particularly PPO plans. Coverage typically ranges from $1,000 to $3,000 per year depending on your specific plan benefits.

Our insurance coordination team verifies your benefits before treatment and helps maximize your coverage.

For patients without insurance or with limited benefits, we offer in-house financing with monthly payments from $60 for single-tooth implants and $250 for All-on-4 full-arch restorations, with terms extending up to 84 months through our healthcare financing partners.

When evaluating the cost of dental implants, it is important to consider the long-term value compared to alternative treatments.

Traditional dentures need to be replaced every five to seven years at a cost of $1,500 to $3,000 each time, and they accelerate jawbone loss which eventually changes facial structure.

Dental bridges require grinding down adjacent healthy teeth and typically last eight to fifteen years before replacement.

Dental implants, by contrast, preserve bone density, protect neighboring teeth, and with proper care can last a lifetime, making them the most cost-effective tooth replacement solution over a 20 to 30 year period.
