Restore Your Smile With Dental Implants
At Woodlake Dental Center, we believe great Implant dentistry changes more than just your smile, it changes your life - in the best ways.
If you’re missing one or more teeth, dental implants offer the most natural, long-term way to restore your health, your confidence, and your ability to live comfortably again.
At Woodlake Dental Center, our highly experienced dentists Dr. Jose Gallegos, Dr. Scott Schlensker, and Dr. Jack Taylor all provide dental implant solutions that look, feel, and function just like your natural teeth.
Our Dental Implant Solutions
Single Tooth Replacement
One missing tooth creates a domino effect—surrounding teeth shift, bone deteriorates, and your bite changes. A single implant stops this process while giving you back full function.
Your implant crown will be color-matched to your existing teeth and shaped for natural appearance. You’ll care for it just like your other teeth, with normal brushing and flossing.
Multiple Teeth and Full Arch Solutions
Missing several teeth or wearing uncomfortable dentures? Implant-supported bridges and full arch restorations provide stability that transforms daily life.
Implant-supported options include:
- Fixed bridges anchored by implants at each end
- All-on-4® or All-on-6 solutions that replace an entire arch with just four to six strategically placed implants
- Implant-supported dentures that snap securely into place but can be removed for cleaning
These solutions eliminate denture adhesives, slipping, and the constant worry that comes with traditional removable appliances.
Bone Grafting & Sinus Preservation
If you’ve experienced bone loss, we can rebuild the bone structure to make implants possible.
These supportive procedures help ensure long-term stability and success, especially in areas where teeth have been missing for a while.

CEREC Same-Day Technology
Our in-house CEREC system allows us to design and create custom temporary restorations the same day your implant is placed (when clinically appropriate). This means you can leave your visit with a natural-looking temporary tooth instead of a visible gap.
CEREC helps us create:
- Immediate same-day temporaries
- Temporary bridges for multi-tooth cases
- Aesthetic provisional crowns that protect the implant as it heals
This technology makes your implant experience smoother, faster, and more comfortable and helps ensure you feel confident throughout your treatment.
Why this matters to you in the implant process? You don’t have to worry about having a gap.

Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the process feels. With modern techniques and gentle care, people often describe implant placement as easier than a tooth extraction. You may feel some soreness for a few days, but we walk you through every step and make sure you’re comfortable the entire time.
With proper care, implants can last decades, often a lifetime. They’re designed to function like natural tooth roots, which makes them one of the most durable and predictable treatments in dentistry. They can oftentimes be the healthiest option for you.
No not when it shows, we won’t let that happen. This is one of the most common concerns patients have, and we take it seriously. You will not walk around with a visible space during treatment.
Depending on your needs, we provide a natural-looking temporary solution such as:
- a same-day temporary tooth,
- a removable aesthetic appliance, or
- a temporary bridge
In some cases, when the bone and implant are stable enough, we can also place an esthetic provisional crown on the same day.
No matter which option is right for you, you’ll always leave our office with a smile ready to show off.
Yes. Your final crown is custom-designed to match your natural teeth in color, shape, and texture. Our goal is for your implant to blend so seamlessly that no one can tell it’s not your original tooth, and neither can you.
Implants can replace a single tooth, multiple teeth, or even stabilize a full denture. We plan your case based on what will give you the most stability, comfort, and long-term success.
Most insurance plans contribute in some way, but every plan is different. Our team helps you understand your benefits and file claims on your behalf so you can make the most informed decision possible. We also offer in-house financing through CareCredit. We will go over all of your options so you feel in control and confident in your decision. No pressure, just honest, transparent treatment options.
