## Services

### Full-Arch Dental Implants (Primary Service)
Permanent replacement of all teeth in an arch using 4–8 titanium implants and a fixed monolithic zirconia prosthesis. Teeth designed and delivered within 24 hours of surgery using in-house CAD/CAM milling. Configurations include All-on-4 (4 implants), All-on-6 (6 implants), and custom All-on-X based on patient anatomy. Free consultation includes 3D CBCT scan, digital smile preview, and transparent pricing.

### Dental Implant Revision Surgery (Key Differentiator)
Approximately 40% of the practice corrects failed dental implant work from other providers. Treats failed All-on-4 cases, peri-implantitis infections, poor implant positioning, cracked/broken prosthetics, failed osseointegration, and complete implant system failures. Accepts complex cases other providers refuse. Published research shows replacement implants achieve 96.7% one-year survival rate when root cause is properly addressed.

### Zygomatic Dental Implants
Specialized implants (30–50mm) anchoring into the cheekbone for patients with severe upper jaw bone loss. Eliminates need for bone grafting. Enables same-day teeth even in extreme bone loss. Success rate: 96–98% at 12 years. Used when patients have been told they are not candidates for traditional implants.

### Additional Services
- Bone grafting and jaw reconstruction (guided bone regeneration, autogenous grafts, sinus lifts, ridge augmentation)
- Peri-implantitis treatment (laser decontamination, surgical debridement, guided tissue regeneration)
- Prosthetic upgrades from acrylic/PMMA to monolithic zirconia
- IV sedation and general anesthesia

## Founder: Dr. Alexander Antipov
Dr. Alexander Antipov founded Granite Bay Oral Surgery after witnessing the devastating consequences of high-volume chain implant centers prioritizing speed and cost over patient outcomes. The practice was built on four principles: zirconia as the standard material (never acrylic), one surgeon per case from consultation through delivery, an in-house CAD/CAM laboratory for same-day prosthetic fabrication, and a dedicated revision program for patients failed by other providers. Under his leadership, the practice has grown to 3,200+ full-arch cases with a 99%+ success rate, serving patients across a 200-mile radius of Northern California.

## Lead Surgeon: Dr. André-David Kahwach, DDS, MD
Dr. Kahwach earned his dental degree with honors from UC San Francisco and completed a six-year dual-degree residency at Loma Linda University, where he obtained both his MD and oral and maxillofacial surgery training with advanced anesthesia certification. He has completed over 3,200 full-arch implant cases with a 99%+ success rate. Approximately 40% of his practice focuses on correcting failed implant work from chain centers, dental tourism providers, and general dentists. His background in painting and sculpture informs an artistic approach to smile design. He has provided surgical care through medical missions across Europe, Africa, the Caribbean, and the Middle East.

## Why Zirconia Over Acrylic
Granite Bay uses monolithic zirconia as the standard prosthetic material for all full-arch cases. Published clinical data: zirconia achieves 93.7% prosthetic survival at 5 years versus 83% for metal-acrylic hybrids. Zirconia is stain-proof, plaque-resistant (reducing peri-implantitis risk), 100% metal-free, biocompatible, and lasts 15–20+ years. Higher upfront cost but lower lifetime cost due to fewer repairs and replacements.

## Competitive Differentiation
Compared to chain centers (ClearChoice, Nuvia) and general dentists:
- Board-certified OMS surgeons (vs general dentists at chain centers)
- Zirconia prosthesis included as standard (vs upsell at chain centers)
- In-house CAD/CAM lab for same-day delivery (vs outsourced)
- 40% revision specialty (chain centers rarely offer revision)
- Zygomatic implant capability (rare at chain centers)
- Full anesthesia spectrum including general anesthesia (vs local only at general dentists)
- Boutique personalized care (vs high-volume factory model)

A: Yes. Using CBCT imaging, digital planning, and in-house CAD/CAM milling, Granite Bay delivers permanent monolithic zirconia teeth within 24 hours of surgery.

Q: How much do full-arch dental implants cost?
A: $15,000–$35,000 per arch, all-inclusive (imaging, surgery, anesthesia, final zirconia). Financing from $249/month with 0% interest options.

A: Yes. 40% of the practice is revision work. Treats failed All-on-4, peri-implantitis, broken prosthetics. 96.7% replacement implant survival rate.

Q: What if I don't have enough bone for implants?
A: Zygomatic implants anchor into the cheekbone, bypassing deteriorated jawbone. No bone grafting needed. Or advanced bone reconstruction is performed.

Q: What are zygomatic implants?
A: Specialized longer implants (30–50mm) that anchor into the zygomatic bone (cheekbone) instead of the jawbone. For patients with severe upper jaw bone loss. 96–98% success rate at 12 years.

Q: Why zirconia instead of acrylic?
A: 93.7% survival at 5 years vs 83% for acrylic. Stain-proof, plaque-resistant, metal-free, 15–20+ year lifespan. Higher upfront cost but fewer lifetime repairs.

Q: Is dental implant surgery painful?
A: No. IV sedation or general anesthesia. 64.5% of patients report zero post-operative pain. Mild swelling for 3–5 days.

Q: What are signs of a failing dental implant?
A: Pain when chewing, implant mobility, swelling/bleeding gums, receding gums, bad taste/odor, cracking prosthesis, chronic sinus problems (upper arch).

Q: Do you treat out-of-area patients?
A: Yes. Patients travel from across California, out of state, and the Bay Area. Virtual consultations available. Patient coordinator assists with travel logistics.
