Education, Training, and Credentials
Dr. Stockdale’s academic and clinical foundation is one of the strongest you’ll find among implant dentists in Rancho Cucamonga or anywhere in San Bernardino County:
- Undergraduate studies at Pacific Union College, Northern California.
- Doctorate of Dental Surgery (DDS) — Loma Linda University School of Dentistry, one of the most respected dental programs in the western United States.
- Mini-Residency in Dental Implant Placement & Restoration — University of Southern California (USC), with hands-on surgical and restorative training.
- Continuing education in orthodontics, restorative dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, and implant dentistry — ongoing.
- Visiting Instructor — Spear Education, one of the premier dental continuing education organizations in North America.
- Nobel Biocare Partner Practice — Dr. Stockdale is certified to place and restore Nobel Biocare implant systems, which are used in more clinical studies than any other implant brand worldwide.
This isn’t a credential list for appearances. It’s the roadmap that explains why patients drive from Upland, Chino, Claremont, and Alta Loma to see Dr. Stockdale when they could choose a closer dentist.
Why Dr. Stockdale Chose Implant Dentistry
Dr. Stockdale grew up in Southern California and became fascinated with dentistry at 15 during his own orthodontic treatment. What hooked him wasn’t just the science—it was the moment-to-moment intersection of biology, technology, and the immediate impact a restored smile has on a person’s entire life.
Implant dentistry, in particular, represents the pinnacle of that intersection. A dental implant is the only tooth replacement option that actually stimulates the jawbone the way a natural tooth root does, preventing the bone loss that follows tooth extraction. It looks like a tooth, functions like a tooth, and, with proper care, lasts like a tooth. For Dr. Stockdale, placing implants isn’t a procedure—it’s a long-term investment in a patient’s health, confidence, and quality of life.
Dr. Stockdale and the rest of our highly-trained team at Renaissance Dental Care provide a pleasant experience from the moment you walk in the door. Check out our website to learn more.

Advanced Technology at Renaissance Dental Care
Finding a skilled implant dentist near you in Rancho Cucamonga is one thing. Finding one with the technology to back that skill up is another. Renaissance Dental Care is equipped with tools that elevate precision, reduce healing time, and improve long-term outcomes.
Before placing a single implant, Dr. Stockdale performs a full Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scan. This 3D imaging technology creates a detailed map of your jawbone density, nerve pathways, sinus positions, and anatomy — information that a standard 2D X-ray simply cannot provide. Your free consultation at Renaissance Dental Care includes this scan (a $400 value elsewhere) at no charge.
Using the CBCT data, Dr. Stockdale creates a computer-milled surgical guide — a custom device that precisely directs implant placement to the exact angle, depth, and position planned digitally. The result is a procedure that’s faster, less invasive, and more predictable than freehand placement.
Not all implants are created equal. Nobel Biocare implants are the most studied and clinically validated implant systems in the world, with a 30+ year track record and more than 1,000 published clinical studies backing their performance. As a certified Nobel Biocare partner, Renaissance Dental Care uses these systems exclusively—so you know exactly what’s going into your mouth and what its track record looks like.
Dental Implant Solutions Available in Rancho Cucamonga
Dr. Stockdale can replace any number of missing teeth using implant technology. Whether you’ve lost one tooth in an accident or need a complete smile restoration, there’s an implant solution at Renaissance Dental Care:
The gold standard for replacing one missing tooth. A titanium post fuses with your jawbone (a process called osseointegration), and a custom porcelain crown is placed on top. The result is indistinguishable from your natural tooth — and it protects the neighboring teeth by eliminating the gaps that cause shifting.
Missing several teeth in a row? Rather than grinding down healthy neighboring teeth for a traditional bridge, an implant-supported bridge anchors to titanium posts—preserving your natural tooth structure while delivering a permanent, stable restoration.
If you’re missing all or most of your teeth on an arch, All-on-4 is one of the most life-changing procedures in modern dentistry. Just four strategically placed implants support a complete set of fixed, non-removable teeth—often delivered the same day as your surgery. This isn’t dentures. It’s a permanent, stable, beautiful smile that you brush and care for like natural teeth.
For patients who want the stability of implants with the option of removable prosthetics, implant-supported dentures snap securely onto implant posts and eliminate the slipping, sore spots, and adhesive dependency of traditional dentures.
Treating Dental Anxiety Near You—You’re Not Alone
Dental anxiety is one of the most common reasons people put off replacing missing teeth for years—sometimes decades. If that’s you, Renaissance Dental Care is built for exactly this situation.
Dr. Stockdale and the team at Renaissance Dental Care offer comprehensive dental sedation options to make your implant procedure as comfortable as possible. The entire environment is designed around removing the stressors that trigger anxiety.
- Sedation dentistry options available—discuss what’s right for you at your consultation.
- Noise-reducing headphones welcome—bring your own playlist.
- No-rush scheduling—choose an appointment time that doesn’t have you arriving stressed.
- Breathe naturally—the team reminds anxious patients to avoid holding their breath during procedures.
- CBCT-guided precision means shorter, more predictable procedures with less chair time.
Choosing a highly trained implant dentist near you matters even more when anxiety is involved. Precision reduces complications, complications reduce unexpected moments, and fewer unexpected moments mean a calmer experience overall.

What training does Dr. Stockdale have specifically in dental implants?
Dr. Stockdale completed a dedicated mini-residency in the placement and restoration of dental implants at the University of Southern California—one of the top dental programs in the country. He’s also a certified Nobel Biocare partner, a visiting instructor at Spear Education, and a graduate of Loma Linda University School of Dentistry. His implant training goes significantly beyond what a general dentist receives.
How is Dr. Stockdale different from other implant dentists near me in the Inland Empire?
Three things stand out: first, his USC implant residency gives him surgical and restorative training that most general dentists don’t have. Second, Renaissance Dental Care uses CBCT 3D imaging and computer-guided placement—not all local practices invest in this level of technology. Third, as a Nobel Biocare partner, he uses the most clinically validated implant system available. The combination of advanced training, precision technology, and a proven implant system is rare in any single practice.

How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, Nobel Biocare implants placed by a trained specialist like Dr. Stockdale are designed to last a lifetime. The implant post (which fuses to your jawbone) is made from biocompatible titanium and is incredibly durable. The crown on top may need replacement after 15 to 25 years, depending on wear, but the implant itself rarely requires replacement when placed and maintained correctly.
