Calistoga Dental Group is a leading destination for providing you with dental implant surgery to replace your missing tooth. Even though advancements have been made in oral health care, many adults still experience tooth loss due to aging, accidents, or gum disease. In these cases, a dental implant presents the most effective and long-lasting solution for teeth replacement. Our team replaces both root and tooth in this procedure; in comparison, dentures and dental bridges merely replace the visible part of your missing teeth. We perform surgery to place implants by inserting a titanium post into the jawbone and allowing it to fuse through osseointegration. Afterward, we put your new crown on top of the fused material. Call (707) 709-6058 to book a consultation at our Calistoga office if you want this surgery.

What Can Patients Expect From Dental Fixture Surgery?

You will be given anesthesia the day you visit our dental office for surgery, so you won't feel anything when we place the implant. If you want to replace multiple teeth with implants, we will let you know how long the process will take and whether or not it requires two appointments. The procedure for a single implant can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours.

Dental Implant Post-Surgery Care

Our surgery is invasive, and swelling and sensitivity post-surgery is normal. However, Calistoga Dental Group recommends taking ibuprofen and applying a cold compress or ice pack for 15 minutes to reduce the risk of infection or unnecessary irritation. We also suggest you take two to five days off work to heal properly. After that period, you should feel normal again, though your gums may still have some sensitivity for some time.
