Dental Implants

Patients at our practice serving Burbank, Glendale, and Beverly Hills may be candidates for dental implants, a revolutionary treatment option that permanently replaces one or more missing teeth. The dental implant procedure starts with the surgical placement of a small titanium post. The post, which is positioned in the jawbone, serves as a substitute tooth root. After healing, a natural-looking artificial tooth is placed onto the post. Dental implants can:

• increase chewing ability
• improve speech
• eliminate gaps
• prevent further bone loss
• protect remaining teeth
• improve overall appearance

Dental implants provide a fully functional smile with a youthful and healthy appearance. Thanks to their lasting impact, dental implants can also increase self-confidence and quality of life. Serving Burbank, Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Glendale, and surrounding areas, implant dentist J. Luis Ruiz, D.D.S. can determine if dental implants are an appropriate treatment option for you.

Dental Technology

Our state-of-the-art dental center utilizes the latest dental technology to maximize your safety, comfort, and overall results. At our practice serving Glendale, Burbank, Beverly Hills, and surrounding areas, dental implants, porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, and other cosmetic and general dentistry procedures can be enhanced through the use of technologies such as:

Digital Panoramic and Cephalometric X-Rays

Our practice uses one of the few fully digital panoramic tomography x-ray systems in the United States to produce sharp, clear images while reducing radiation exposure by as much as 90 percent. Dr. Ruiz can utilize these x-ray techniques to view the roots of teeth, the position of unerupted teeth, and a two-dimensional measurement of the bone and soft tissues surrounding the teeth to make thorough evaluations of each patient's condition for the most successful treatment planning.

Drill-less Dentistry

Air abrasion technology offers a quick, painless alternative to traditional filling techniques. Using a stream of air and aluminum oxide particles, the air abrasion system gently removes minor tooth decay without the need for injections or drilling.

Laser Dentistry

Dr. Ruiz performs gum reshaping, teeth whitening, and more with the precision of laser dentistry technology. An extremely comfortable and effective approach to various soft tissue treatments, Dr. Ruiz is pleased to offer his patients the option of laser dentistry.

Intraoral Camera

A tiny device that allows both patients and doctors to view an enlarged image of the mouth, an intraoral camera not only assists with detecting and diagnosing dental concerns, but also offers patients a better understanding of their needs and allows them to be more in control of their dental experience.

Comfort Technology

Our practice offers a number of services and amenities to maximize your comfort throughout your dental visit, including Nitrous Oxide, 3-D video goggles, headsets, and pillows and blankets. Our ultimate concern is always your safety and comfort.
