A dental implant is a small titanium post placed in the jawbone that holds a crown, a bridge or a full set of teeth. At LOSAN Dental in Los Algodones, implants are planned by prosthodontist Dr. Diego Lopez after a clinical exam and X-rays. Most cases take two trips: one to place the implants and one, after healing, for the final teeth.
Most adults who are missing teeth can receive implants. Dr. Diego Lopez checks:
| Dental implant | Fixed bridge | Removable partial denture | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Replaces | The root and the tooth | The tooth, anchored to neighbors | One or several teeth |
| Neighbor teeth | Not touched | Filed down to hold the bridge | Clasps rest on them |
| Removable? | No | No | Yes |
| Trips to Los Algodones | Usually 2 | Usually 1 | Usually 1–2 |
| Protects the jawbone | Yes | No | No |
A prosthodontist is the specialist in replacing teeth. Dr. Diego Lopez plans the implant position from the final tooth backward — where the crown must sit to look natural and to bite well — and then restores it himself. That continuity is why many LOSAN patients describe their plans as conservative and clear.
Safety depends on the clinic and the dentist, not on the country. At LOSAN Dental, implant treatment is planned and performed by Dr. Diego Lopez, a prosthodontist, after a clinical exam and X-rays, following sterilization and clinical protocols. Ask us about the implant system we use and the guarantee for your treatment.
It depends on the treatment. Crowns and veneers can often be completed in a single trip of a few days. Dental implants usually take two trips: one to place the implants and another, after a healing period of a few months, for the final teeth. Your exact plan is defined at your evaluation.
The cost depends on how many implants you need, whether you need bone grafting, and the type of final teeth. LOSAN Dental gives every patient a written plan with the total cost before treatment starts.
Some treatments can be performed under IV sedation for patients who feel anxious or need long procedures. Ask during your evaluation whether it is an option for your case.
Yes, most of our dental treatments come with a guarantee. We stand behind our work and will explain the specific terms during your consultation.
