Office staff is friendly and helpful. Dr Willardsen and his assistant Rosie, not good. The most painful dentist appt. I have ever had. After the tooth extraction, I refuse to go back for the implant.

California Implant Smiles is a dental implant and full mouth reconstruction center located at 1920 E. 17th Street, Suite 103 in Santa Ana, serving patients across Orange County. The practice focuses on permanent tooth replacement, with procedures that include single tooth implants, implant supported bridges, bone grafting, sinus lifts, extractions, conventional dentures, and full mouth reconstruction. It also offers Same Day Teeth with full arch options such as All-on-4 and All-on-6, along with what the practice calls its Solid 6 and Solid 8 techniques.
Patients begin with a free consultation with one of the practice's doctors, and the team encourages people to bring detailed questions and concerns. Once a treatment plan has been reviewed by the practice's panel of doctors, the office establishes a one-time, all-inclusive fee so patients know their total investment up front. The practice states that a board certified anesthesiologist is part of the team to help keep surgery day comfortable, and its website features a before and after gallery, video testimonials, payment options, and educational pages comparing implants with removable dentures.
The practice's clinical team, as listed on its website, includes Dr. John Willardsen, who earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery at Loma Linda University, holds a certificate in Implant Dentistry and Prosthodontics, and serves as an Assistant Clinical Professor at Loma Linda University's Center for Implant Dentistry. Dr. Arnel T. Eugenio is a 1995 graduate of the UCLA School of Dentistry with experience in comprehensive and cosmetic dental care and the treatment of gum disease. Dr. Rachel Hendrickson earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Washington School of Dentistry. Dr. Ameet Chopra is an oral and maxillofacial surgeon who completed his residency at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center and focuses on extractions, dental implants, anesthesia and sedation, and jaw surgery. Dr. Alfred Penhaskashi, a UCLA School of Dentistry graduate with periodontics certification from the University of Southern California, treats gum disease and performs implant surgery for the practice.
