Our modern facility, conveniently accessible from Seal Beach, offers comprehensive dental implant solutions designed to restore natural function and appearance while ensuring your comfort throughout treatment.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are biocompatible titanium posts that integrate with your jawbone, creating permanent foundations for replacement teeth. These precision-crafted anchors support everything from individual crowns to complete dental arches, providing unmatched stability compared to traditional tooth replacement options. Unlike removable dentures or conventional bridges, implants preserve bone health while delivering the most natural-looking and functional solution available.
We understand many Seal Beach residents have concerns about implant procedures. Our team creates a relaxed, informative environment where your questions are thoroughly addressed before treatment begins. Various sedation options ensure complete comfort during the procedure. Our patients consistently report that implant treatment was far more comfortable than anticipated, with manageable recovery and transformative results.
Our Dental Implant Options
Single-Tooth Implants
When Seal Beach residents lose a tooth to trauma, decay, or extraction, single-tooth implants offer the ideal solution that preserves adjacent healthy teeth. Unlike traditional bridges that require grinding down neighboring teeth for support, individual implants stand independently. Each restoration begins with comprehensive 3D imaging that maps your precise anatomy, guiding optimal implant positioning. Following a brief healing period, we attach a custom-crafted porcelain crown color-matched to your natural teeth and shaped to complement your smile’s unique characteristics.
All-on-4 Complete Restorations
Seal Beach’s active residents with comprehensive tooth loss appreciate our streamlined All-on-4 approach to full-arch restoration. This revolutionary technique supports an entire set of new teeth on just four precisely angled implants, strategically positioned to maximize contact with existing bone. The specialized design often eliminates the extensive bone grafting typically required with traditional methods, while allowing for immediate provisional teeth placement – perfect for maintaining your social calendar without interruption. Many Seal Beach patients select this option for its ideal balance of comprehensive restoration and treatment efficiency.
Implant-Supported Dentures
For those who’ve struggled with conventional dentures in Seal Beach’s social environment, our implant-supported prosthetics offer transformative stability. By strategically placing 2-4 dental implants along your jaw, we create secure anchoring points for specially designed dentures that lock firmly into position. These innovative prosthetics eliminate the embarrassing slippage during beachside conversations, the painful pressure points on sensitive gum tissue, and the dietary limitations that force many denture wearers to avoid Seal Beach’s seafood restaurants. Most remarkably, this hybrid solution provides the security of fixed implants at a significantly lower investment than full-arch restorations, making stabilized dentures particularly popular among Seal Beach’s retiree community seeking value without compromise.

What Are The Benefits of Dental Implants?
Unmatched Stability and Function
Dental implants provide exceptional stability that no other tooth replacement option can match. The titanium post fuses directly with your jawbone, creating a permanent foundation that won’t shift or move. This secure connection allows for natural biting and chewing forces comparable to healthy teeth. Seal Beach patients report being able to eat tough steaks, crisp apples, and chewy foods without worry or discomfort. This restored function means enjoying meals without constantly thinking about your teeth.
Preservation of Jawbone Structure
Dental implants are the only tooth replacement option that actively prevents jawbone deterioration. When a tooth is lost, the bone that once supported it begins to resorb, or shrink away. Implants mimic natural tooth roots by transferring chewing forces to the bone, stimulating it to maintain its volume and density. This preservation prevents the sunken facial appearance that often develops with long-term tooth loss and traditional dentures, helping Seal Beach residents maintain their natural facial contours as they age.
Natural Appearance
Implant restorations are crafted to mirror natural teeth in color, shape, and light reflection. The crown portion is custom-designed to blend seamlessly with your surrounding teeth or to create a completely natural-looking full set of teeth. Unlike some traditional options that can appear artificial or bulky, quality implant restorations are virtually indistinguishable from natural teeth. Many Seal Beach patients report that even close friends can’t identify which teeth are implants.
Lifetime Solution
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime, making them the most permanent solution available for tooth replacement. The implant’s titanium structure is biocompatible and rarely needs replacement once properly integrated with bone. While the crown portion may need occasional replacement after 10-15 years of wear, the implant itself typically remains secure indefinitely. This longevity makes implants a true investment in your long-term oral health and overall wellbeing.
SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT
Your care begins with a comprehensive consultation where we evaluate your oral condition, discuss treatment options, and answer all your questions. We prioritize clear communication throughout your implant journey, ensuring you understand both the recommended procedures and what to expect at each stage. Our team handles insurance verification, appointment scheduling, and pre-operative preparation, making each step seamless. For your comfort and peace of mind, we encourage bringing a support person to appointments, especially for procedures involving sedation.
Specialized Implant Training
Dr. Silegy has completed extensive post-graduate education specifically focused on dental implant procedures. This specialized training goes far beyond standard dental education, encompassing advanced surgical techniques, bone grafting procedures, and complex case management. For Seal Beach patients, this focused expertise means receiving care from a practitioner who performs implant procedures daily rather than occasionally. This depth of experience directly translates to more predictable outcomes, fewer complications, and better management of unusual situations that might arise during treatment.
Advanced 3D Imaging Technology
Our practice utilizes state-of-the-art cone beam CT scanning that creates detailed three-dimensional maps of your oral structures. This advanced imaging allows Dr. Silegy to visualize bone density, nerve locations, and anatomical features with exceptional clarity before surgery begins. For Seal Beach patients, this precision planning means safer procedures with minimal tissue disruption, optimal implant positioning for long-term success, and more accurate assessment of bone quality. Many patients are fascinated by seeing their own 3D images during consultation, helping them better understand their treatment plan.
Complete In-House Treatment
Unlike practices that refer patients between multiple offices for different phases of implant treatment, Silegy OMFS provides comprehensive care under one roof. From initial consultation through surgical placement and restoration planning, your treatment remains within our practice. This integrated approach eliminates communication gaps between providers, reduces overall treatment time, and ensures consistent care standards throughout your implant journey. Seal Beach patients particularly appreciate this convenience, which minimizes travel time and appointment scheduling complexity.
Customized Comfort Options
We recognize that dental anxiety prevents many Seal Beach residents from pursuing needed implant treatment. Our practice offers multiple sedation options tailored to your specific anxiety level and procedure complexity. From mild nitrous oxide relaxation to deep IV sedation, these options ensure your comfort throughout treatment while maintaining safety through continuous monitoring. Our patients frequently comment that their procedure was far more comfortable than anticipated, with many struggling to remember details of their appointment afterward thanks to the amnestic effects of sedation.
