Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, oral surgery is typically part of the dental implant process. During the procedure, a small titanium post is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it integrates with the bone over time to create a strong foundation for a replacement tooth. At Southeastern Dental Center, our sedation options ensure a comfortable, relaxed experience.

Before your oral surgery at Southeastern Dental Center, you’ll receive specific instructions from your dentist to ensure a smooth experience. General tips include fasting if needed, arranging a ride home, and having soft foods on hand for recovery. Wear comfortable clothing, avoid smoking, and brush gently beforehand. Setting up a cozy recovery space with ice packs and medications nearby is also helpful. If you have any questions, your dental team is here to guide you each step of the way.

Recovery from oral surgery will vary depending on the procedure, but most patients experience some swelling, mild discomfort, and sensitivity for a few days. After your procedure, our team at Southeastern Dental Center will give you detailed aftercare instructions to support your healing, covering pain management, diet, and gentle oral care tips. Follow-up appointments will ensure healing is on track. Stick to soft foods, rest well, and use ice packs to reduce swelling.
