How do I know if I’m receiving a high-quality dental implant?
Not all implants are created equal. To ensure you're getting a safe, high-performing product, ask your provider:
-
Is the implant FDA-approved?

What’s the brand name of the implant?
-
Does it come with a warranty?
-
How long has the manufacturer been in business?
At Mai Dental Care, we only use world-class implant systems and companies with decades of experience producing ultra-precise medical devices.
How do I choose the best dental implant provider near me?
Look for a dentist with:
-
Advanced training in implant surgery and restoration
-
Recognized credentials that reflect advanced expertise in dental implantology
-
In-house technology and lab capabilities
-
Proven results and positive patient reviews

Additional Dental Implant FAQs
Not always. One implant supports one crown—but to replace multiple teeth, we may use implant bridges or full arch solutions that only require 4–6 implants per jaw.
Costs vary depending on how many teeth are being replaced, the type of restoration, and whether additional procedures are needed. The best way to get accurate pricing is to schedule a consultation.

- Mesha G.Mai Dental has thus far been one of the best dental experiences I’ve had . I had recently moved back to Santa Maria and hadn’t found a dentist and had procrastinated, I ended up having severe pain in my tooth and my face was swelling . I contacted Mai Dental and they were able to get me in immediately, the receptionist had so much sympathy for me that you don’t normally find in people. Once arriving at my dental appointment I treated very well by everyone and found out I needed a root canal and had an infection . Once the Dr. was able to relieve my pain by numbing my gums and giving me antibiotics she was able to go over treatment plans with me. Mai Dental made it easy for me as they have several different financing options. Later that day and the next day the Dr called to check on me . In my experience that has not always been the case with Dr’s. I am still undergoing treatment with Mai Dental as I needed more work , but I wouldn’t want to work with any other dentist again. They are kind , compassionate, skilled and thorough. If any one is looking for a great dentist and has had bad experiences before I urge you to go to Mai Dental.read moreread lessLeo P.Mai Dental was a really Great experience I am very surprised of how fast I was able to get my root canal done. Not only was that done fast but it was done very professional and painless. And for me I’ve had a previous very bad dental experience (at a different office) so I was very nervous as anxious about going in to have work done but Mai Dental Reassured me that everything was gonna be okay and sure enough It’s been 2 days since my procedure and no pain at all! They were very gentle during my procedure I really Appreciated the doctor and staff everybody was very professional and very compassionate. I will be referring patients to them from here on out.read moreread less
- Amanda O.One of the best places I have been to!!! I am absolutely terrified of going to the dentist, and needed some work done. The dr is super informative about every procedure being done and costs. Also let me know what type of pain or pressure I’d be feeling during the procedures, and felt just about nothing with little to no pain afterwards. Definitely recommend!!read moreread lessRicky V.Very friendly staff and took the time to explain the procedures being done and honest with me about everything. If you're looking for a good dentist then definitely check them out. I found them through Google because of all the positive reviews, and definitely wasn't let down :)read moreread less

I am in a power wheelchair and even though it was an older building the girls who work there were so patient and helpful as I maneuvered my way around! Dr. Mai was thorough and encouraging, making me feel comfortable while working with me!!read moreread lessLiliy L.Not going to lie, this was the first dentist I’ve been to in an awfully long time.

She also will answer any concerns or questions you have.I just had my wisdom teeth taken out and the Doctor and her staff made sure that I felt no pain at all!
