Dental implant surgery is a routine procedure at our office, but that doesn’t mean we don’t take every surgery seriously. We’ll first make you feel comfortable in our relaxing surgical suite, where you’ll have access to our many comfort amenities Our team is also trained and certified to offer sedation , including nitrous oxide, oral sedation, and IV sedation. We’re one of the few practices in the Twin Cities area to offer IV sedation and do so at the highest safety standards by bringing in a certified nurse anesthetist to administer treatment and monitor you during surgery. Once you are comfortable, we place your dental implants using the custom surgical guide and if they have adequate primary stability, we’ll attach a temporary crown or bridge. In certain cases, we can extract teeth and place a dental implant during the same surgical appointment. However, our goal is to provide the greatest functional and health benefits, and the most successful treatment. Depending on your situation, your surgical phase may include multiple steps involving tooth extractions and bone grafting.
