My name is Dr. Richard Valera, and I am privileged to work at the Implant Center of Sunrise, where we specialize in dental implants and cosmetic dentistry. My journey into dentistry was fueled by a deep-rooted passion for creating positive change in people's lives through innovative dental solutions.

Dental implants have revolutionized the way we approach oral health, offering a seamless integration into one's daily oral hygiene routine. As a dental implant behaves much like a natural tooth, it requires similar care, including regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings. This similarity not only makes dental implants an optimal solution for tooth replacement but also preserves the health of adjacent teeth, avoiding the need to alter them as part of the treatment process.

One of the most transformative aspects of my work involves the All-on-X procedure. Witnessing the dramatic transformations of patients, from those with severely compromised dental health to those who achieve full restoration with zirconia prostheses, is profoundly rewarding. These cases not only showcase the functional benefits of dental implants but also their ability to restore aesthetics, giving patients back their confidence along with their smile.



After 18 years in practice, my commitment to providing individualized, cutting-edge care has only deepened. For anyone considering dental implants or seeking to learn more about their options, I invite you to reach out to us at the Implant Center of Sunrise. Together, we can embark on a journey toward rediscovering the joy and confidence of a healthy, beautiful smile.
