About Apex Implant Centers

A practice built around dental implants, not a general office that does them on the side.

Apex Implant Centers exists for one reason: to perform dental implant treatment at a level of precision, comfort, and transparency that general dentistry can't match.

Our story

Built around a single conviction.

For most of dentistry's history, implant treatment has been treated as one procedure among many. A general dentist who does fillings and cleanings might also place a few implants a month. The patient gets a generalist's level of experience on a procedure that rewards dedicated focus.

Apex was founded to do it differently. Our founder, Dr. Sunny Badyal, has spent the last 18 years focused almost entirely on dental implants, placing over 20,000 of them. He recognized that the patients who came to him from general practices kept asking the same questions: Why didn't they tell me this was an option? Why is the price so different here? Why can I do this in one day?

The answer was always the same: a practice focused entirely on implants can do things general practice can't. So we built one.

Today, our provider team places implants daily, supported by full general anesthesia, in-house 3D imaging, and a clinical philosophy refined over Dr. Badyal's career. Every patient, single tooth or full arch, gets the same level of care.

The Apex difference

Three things that make us different.

01

Implant focus

We don't do 47 procedures. We do dental implants, single tooth, full arch, zygomatic, and the supporting work. That's our entire focus.

02

Transparent pricing

Our prices are listed publicly: $1,999 single tooth, $12,500 All-on-4 per arch. No hidden fees. We tell you the full cost at the consultation, before you commit.

03

Done while you sleep

Full general anesthesia is available, administered on-site by visiting physician anesthesiologists (MDs) from Capital City Dental Anesthesia. Standard at hospitals, rare at dental clinics.

Dr. Sunny Badyal was raised in Natomas and graduated from Natomas High School before earning his Bachelor's degree in Biotechnology from the University of California, Davis. He went on to dental school at the University of Western Ontario, graduating in 2008.

In 2009, Dr. Badyal opened his first practice in Yuba City and immediately focused on high-quality, patient-centered care. Within his first two years, he had identified dental implants as the procedure he wanted to dedicate his career to, drawn by the precision, the surgical craft, and the life-changing impact for patients.

In the years that followed, he committed his practice almost entirely to implant dentistry, completing more than 250 hours of advanced clinical implant coursework through the International Dental Implant Association (IDIA) and the American Dental Implant Association (ADIA). He has pursued advanced implant training and continuing education throughout his career.

As Apex Implant Centers's founder and lead dentist, Dr. Badyal is responsible for the clinical philosophy, the technology choices, and the standard of care across every procedure. While our provider team performs the implant placements, every treatment plan reflects his methodology.

Anesthesia & sedation

Hospital-level anesthesia, in the dental office.

For complex procedures such as All-on-X and full-arch implants, Apex partners with Capital City Dental Anesthesia, an independent group of physician anesthesiologists (MDs) who administer general anesthesia on-site.

Anesthesia is provided by licensed physician anesthesiologists, board-certified by the American Board of Anesthesiology, using hospital-grade anesthesia machines and ventilator support, with continuous physician monitoring through recovery. We do not use nurse anesthetists or non-physician providers for general anesthesia.

Clinical philosophy

What guides every procedure at Apex.

Plan twice, cut once.

Every implant case is fully planned in 3D software before the patient sits in the chair. Implant angles, depths, and prosthetic outcomes are determined digitally, surgery is execution, not exploration.

Comfort is medicine.

Anxious patients heal worse. Sedation and general anesthesia aren't luxuries, they're surgical tools that reduce trauma, improve healing, and let us perform more complex cases predictably.

Pricing is a feature.

Patients shouldn't need to choose between the right procedure and the affordable one. Transparent, comprehensive pricing means the right decision is never blocked by the wrong fear.

If it's not for you, we say so.

We turn away patients who aren't candidates for what they're asking for, and refer them to the right alternative. The best signal of expertise is honesty about its limits.

Why focus matters

The case for making dental implants a dedicated focus.

Why dedicated focus changes outcomes

Implant treatment is mechanically straightforward in textbook cases and uncompromising in everything else. The variables that determine success, bone density mapping, sinus and nerve avoidance, prosthetic-driven angulation, soft-tissue management around the emergence profile, are skills that compound with repetition. A general dentist who places forty implants a year sees roughly the same number of complex cases in five years that our team sees in five months. The procedure is the same in name; the experience handling it is not. That is the foundation Apex was built on: an entire facility, anesthesia infrastructure, imaging stack, and provider team organized around one procedure family rather than rotated into the schedule alongside crowns, cleanings, and root canals.

Training and ongoing education

Dr. Badyal earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Western Ontario in 2008 and holds California dental license #58055. He has completed more than 250 hours of advanced clinical implant coursework through the International Dental Implant Association (IDIA) and the American Dental Implant Association (ADIA). His practice is built on continuing education and a high volume of implant cases rather than the broad scope of a general dental license. Coursework and training don't perform surgery, Dr. Badyal does, and the provider team does under his methodology, but they reflect a deliberate, sustained focus on implant technique, case selection, and complication management.

How the philosophy translates to the chair

Every patient who books at Apex receives a CBCT scan at the consultation rather than after committing to treatment, every treatment plan is reviewed in 3D planning software before the patient is anesthetized, and every procedure that warrants it, which is most full-arch work and a meaningful share of single-tooth cases, is performed under full general anesthesia administered by a physician anesthesiologist (MD). None of this is a marketing posture. It is the operational consequence of treating implant care the way a hospital treats any procedure where outcomes are measured in decades rather than appointments.
