Sonoma Smiles is the leading dental implant provider in Rohnert Park, California, and its environs. Over the years, Dr. Wayne Sutton and the team have helped countless patients enjoy beautiful, functional smiles after tooth loss. Whether you need a single implant or full mouth restoration, we’ll help you achieve your dental goals.
Is getting full-mouth dental implants painful? This is one of the frequently asked questions by patients considering implants. We are here to inform you what to expect during and after dental implant surgery. (Hint: the overall experience is comfortable and event-free).
As dentists, we understand your fears and concerns. The fear of pain makes many patients hesitate to receive dental implant treatment despite its many benefits. Knowing what to expect can improve your confidence before your procedure and overall comfort.
When you have extensive tooth loss, Dr. Sutton will recommend full-mouth implants to restore your smile. Using this option, we can restore an entire arch of missing teeth with as few as four implants. This way, you don’t need an implant for every tooth lost. We securely attach a full set of teeth with a natural-looking denture on the angled implants to restore your smile.
Placing dental implants in your jawbone is a surgical procedure that involves making precise incisions in the gum and bone. Oral surgery might seem intimidating, but it’s far from it. Thanks to modern technology, you’ll experience minimal pain during the procedure.
Before surgery, we use local anesthetics to numb your gums for optimal comfort. Still, we offer sedation dentistry to help dental-phobic patients enjoy worry-free dentistry.
After your full-mouth dental surgery, you can expect mild bruising, swelling, and pain, especially after the anesthesia wears off. However, the post care instructions below should make your recovery more tolerable.
It’s normal to experience some discomfort after surgery, but this shouldn’t last longer than a few days. Call your dentist if your symptoms worsen or prolong.
Don’t let the fear of pain prevent you from enjoying one of the revolutionary treatments in dentistry. Sonoma Smiles offers world-class dental care services to ensure a comfortable experience from start to finish.
If you are ready to take the next step towards restoring your smile, call (707) 868-0666 to schedule an appointment with Dr. Sutton.
