How East Palo Alto patients get permanent teeth in one planned trip

East Palo Alto Deserves The Real Specialist.
East Palo Alto sits on the bay side of US-101, University Avenue running straight through it toward the Dumbarton. It's a community that's had to fight for good services, and specialty dental care is one of the things people here often end up driving for. Our Geary Boulevard office is about forty-five minutes north — a real trip, but a manageable one for care that's hard to find closer.
What you get for that drive is a practice that does implants and only implants, owned by the two surgeons who perform the work. Dr. Sam Jain and Dr. Arpana Gupta take the cases other offices decline — significant bone loss, zygomatic implants when there's 'no bone,' and rescuing implants that failed somewhere else. Full-arch treatment is quoted per arch in writing after the free scan, with financing options through several trusted healthcare lenders.
The in-house lab changes the math on distance. Because Andy Jain mills the final zirconia teeth on-site, many qualifying cases don't need repeat trips stretched over months — permanent teeth can be ready in roughly a day for single and multiple implants, a few days for full-arch. The first visit, with a free 3D CBCT scan, tells you exactly how many trips your case takes. Book the free consultation and we’ll plan the logistics with you, mile by mile.
The Practice
This Practice, At A Glance
Drive times are approximate, in normal traffic. Same-day permanent teeth apply to qualifying single- and multiple-implant cases; full-arch patients typically receive final custom-milled teeth in about 72 hours. Candidacy is confirmed after an exam and free 3D imaging.

The Questions We Hear Most Often From East Palo Alto
How long is the drive from East Palo Alto?
US-101 north, connecting to I-280 and CA-1/19th Avenue, then east on Geary into the Richmond District — 40 to 55 minutes depending on traffic. The consultation, 3D scan, and written plan happen in one appointment there; both offices are complete implant centers, so surgery and same-day teeth are available at either.
What if I do not have dental insurance at all?
Many patients here do not. The consultation and 3D CBCT scan are free either way, and you leave with every cost itemized in writing before deciding anything. Four healthcare lenders are compared at the visit — they approve different credit profiles, and checking your rate does not affect your score.
Do you take Medi-Cal?
Not for implant procedures, and not Medicare or HMO plans either — we work with PPO plans. That is a straight answer rather than a runaround, and if financing is the practical route we will show you what it looks like in writing at the same visit rather than sending you away to find out.
Can I bring someone with me?
Please do. A second set of ears helps with the details, the questions you would forget to ask, and the money conversation. If family lives far away they can join by phone or video while the doctor goes through the scan and the written plan. The decision stays yours; the understanding can be shared.

(Translated by Google) The doctors and their assistants are truly professional. They made me feel comfortable during my visit. For my first time seeing a dentist, coming to this clinic was the best decision I made. They were very efficient and quick with the process of placing my dental implants. I would definitely choose to come here again; I'm extremely satisfied with the results.
