Restorative Dentistry
Natural-looking crowns and bridges that restore dental implants, replacing missing teeth so they look and work like your own.
Dental implants are today’s gold standard for replacing missing teeth, and the restoration on top of the implant is what you see and chew with. Dr. Nunnery is certified in the restoration of multiple implant systems and crafts the crowns, bridges, and implant-supported restorations that complete your new tooth.
An implant has two parts: a small post placed in the jawbone that acts as a root, and the custom restoration that attaches to it. The result is a replacement tooth that looks natural, is anchored securely, and helps preserve the jawbone, without altering the healthy teeth next to it.
To give you the best result, we work as a team. The surgical placement of the implant post is performed by a trusted oral surgeon or periodontist, and Dr. Nunnery designs and places the final restoration that makes it look and function like a natural tooth. We coordinate the entire process so it feels seamless to you.
Whether you are missing one tooth or several, implant restorations can restore your confidence and your bite for the long term.
A coordinated plan, a comfortable hand-off between the surgeon and our office, and a final restoration crafted to look and feel like your own tooth.

Patients missing one or more teeth who want the most natural, secure replacement and have, or can build, adequate bone support. We evaluate and coordinate with the surgical specialist.
You get the best of a team approach: a specialist for the surgery and an experienced restorative dentist, certified in multiple implant systems, for the part you see and chew with.
Implant coverage varies by plan and is often partial. We review the full cost across the surgical and restorative phases and offer CareCredit financing.
The surgical placement of the implant post is performed by a trusted oral surgeon or periodontist. Dr. Nunnery, who is certified in restoring multiple implant systems, designs and places the crown or bridge that completes your tooth, and coordinates the whole process.
It varies. After the post is placed, several months of healing usually allow it to fuse with the bone before the final restoration is attached. We map the timeline out for you in advance.
For many patients, yes. They are the most natural-feeling way to replace a missing tooth and help preserve bone, though we will compare them honestly with bridges and dentures for your situation.
New patients are always welcome. Request an appointment online or call our Walnut Creek office and our friendly team will take care of the rest.
