Dr. Sanjabi has placed over 7,500 dental implants, and he handles your surgery and your final crown himself, from start to finish, right here in Downey. You’re not referred out to separate offices, and Dr. Sanjabi stays accountable for your result.
A dental implant is a small titanium post that goes where your tooth root used to be. Once it bonds to the bone, a crown goes on top. The result looks, feels, and chews like a natural tooth.
The titanium root is what sets dental implants apart from every other tooth replacement. A bridge sits on top of neighboring teeth and doesn’t replace the root. A partial denture clips in and still comes out. A dental implant
becomes part of your jaw.
That root also stops the bone from shrinking. When a tooth is gone and nothing replaces it, the bone in that spot slowly disappears, the gap widens, and neighboring teeth drift. Dental implants are the only tooth replacement that prevents that.
You don’t need to know which option is right for you before you call. That’s exactly what the free consultation is for.
When one tooth is missing, a dental implant is the cleanest fix. It stands on its own, so the neighboring teeth stay completely untouched. A bridge would require those teeth to be filed down to anchor it. A dental implant does not.
Dr. Sanjabi places the implant post in a short surgery. After a short healing period, the crown goes on. It looks, chews, and cleans like a natural tooth.
Multiple missing teeth can be restored with individual dental implants or with a smaller implant-supported bridge. Dr. Sanjabi looks at your full picture at the consultation and gives you options that actually fit your case.
A 3D scan and full exam as part of your free consultation. You see the plan and the price before you decide anything.
Dr. Sanjabi places the implant himself and keeps you comfortable with local anesthesia and sedation, oral for many cases and IV when it's the right fit. Most single-implant visits are shorter and easier than patients expect.
The implant fuses with your jawbone over a few months while you go about your life. When a tooth shows, a temporary keeps you looking normal in the meantime.
The same doctor places the crown that looks, feels, and chews like your own tooth. One doctor, start to finish.
At many offices, one surgeon places the implant and a separate restorative dentist makes the crown, in two offices, on two schedules, with each one accountable for half of your outcome. Dr. Sanjabi does both himself, with over 7,500 dental implants behind him, including complex cases that other offices declined to take on. One doctor owns how your implant fits, works, and looks, start to finish.
Being nervous is normal. What patients consistently say afterward is that it was far easier than they imagined. IV sedation is available as an option for patients who want to be fully asleep, alongside oral sedation and local anesthesia for many cases.
“I had my dental implant done with Dr Sanjabi and it was a great experience. I was nervous about the surgery but he put me at ease and the healing wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be.”
He explains what he is seeing, lays out your options, and answers your questions without rushing.
“I am very happy with my results. The attention given to me as a patient was very professional and caring.”

Many patients finance their dental implants, which turns that bigger up-front cost into a manageable monthly payment.
Being turned away from dental implants for bone loss is common, but it’s not always the final answer.
Using 3D imaging and digital planning, Dr. Sanjabi evaluates your anatomy to find the right solution. When standard dental implants aren’t an option, he has extensive experience with advanced techniques, including zygomatic, pterygoid, and transnasal implants, along with bone grafting, that let many patients who were turned away elsewhere receive fixed teeth. Bone grafting and sinus lifts are handled here in-house, so you don’t need a separate specialist or a second office.

Your treatment qualifies for our 12-year warranty once your final teeth are delivered, as long as you keep good oral hygiene and attend your recommended maintenance and follow-up visits, with the same doctor seeing you for years. Your first maintenance is included at your 6-month follow-up. With proper care, the dental implants themselves are built to last a lifetime.
The implant post needs time to bond with the bone, which typically takes a few months. The total timeline varies by case. Dr. Sanjabi walks through the full schedule with you at your consultation.
The surgery is done with local anesthesia, and IV sedation is available for patients who want to be fully asleep. Many patients are surprised by how manageable recovery is.
Dr. Sanjabi handles extractions in-house. In many cases, the extraction and the implant placement happen in the same visit.
Age alone is rarely a disqualifier. Dr. Sanjabi has restored smiles for patients well into their seventies and beyond.
A bridge uses the two neighboring teeth as anchors and doesn’t replace the root. A dental implant is freestanding and replaces both the root and the visible tooth. It doesn’t touch the adjacent teeth.
