About

University Dental Implant Center, the San Diego practice of Dr. Armin Hage at 6324 University Avenue in College Area, brings Loma Linda University School of Dentistry training and Master-level certification from the International Academy of Dental Implantology to the 92115 corridor. The MIADI credential reflects advanced surgical and prosthetic training beyond a standard DDS degree, and Dr. Hage has placed more than 3,000 dental implants since 2005 with complication rates he reports as well below industry averages. That implant volume supports a practice model built around complex full-arch reconstructions, including cases other offices have declined, with select implant packages backed by a lifetime warranty near SDSU in the same commercial stretch as College Avenue Dentistry. Dr. Hage also serves as a faculty member who teaches implant placement and restoration techniques to other dentists, a teaching role that keeps his clinical protocols current with evolving guided-surgery and digital-workflow standards. General and cosmetic services include crown and bridge work, root canal therapy, orthodontic treatment, porcelain veneers, and TMJ dysfunction management, covering the full scope of restorative and functional dentistry. Before his dental career, Dr. Hage worked as a scale model artist whose detail-oriented techniques translated directly into the precision margin work and shade matching that implant prosthetics demand. Cone-beam computed tomography scanning in the office generates 3D jaw-bone imaging for surgical planning, and digital impression systems eliminate the discomfort of traditional alginate molds. The practice coordinates complex medical cases with area primary-care physicians, including referrals through City Heights Family Health Center for patients who require medical clearance before implant surgery. Each operatory runs a digital radiography setup with panoramic and periapical imaging capability for comprehensive diagnostic evaluation.
