Patient Information

Plan to have a driver with you — most procedures involve sedation, so you won't be able to drive afterward. Arrive 15 minutes early. You'll meet with your surgeon, review your treatment plan, and our team will walk you through every step before anything begins. Most procedures take 30–90 minutes, after which you'll recover in our comfortable suite before heading home.

We accept Delta Dental, Aetna, Cigna, MetLife, United Healthcare, BlueCross BlueShield, Humana, Guardian, and most other major PPO plans. We also work with CareCredit for flexible 0% APR financing. Call our office and we'll verify your benefits before your appointment — no surprises.

Absolutely. We offer four levels of sedation: local anesthesia (numbing only), nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral sedation (relaxation pill), and full IV sedation (you'll be asleep). IV sedation is administered by our in-house anesthesia team with continuous monitoring throughout. The option that's right for you depends on your procedure and anxiety level — we'll discuss it at your consultation.

Most patients feel well enough to return to desk work within 2–3 days. Swelling typically peaks around day 2 and subsides by day 5–7. We send every patient home with a recovery kit including gauze, ice packs, and detailed care instructions. Our surgeons' minimally-invasive technique significantly shortens recovery time for most patients.

Implant costs vary based on the number of implants, whether bone grafting is needed, and your specific anatomy. A single implant typically ranges from $3,500–$5,000 all-in. Many insurance plans cover a portion of implant-related procedures. We offer free consultations where we'll provide a personalized quote and review all financing options — so you know exactly what to expect.

Yes! Our surgical team sees patients as young as 6 for tooth extractions and commonly treats teenagers for wisdom teeth removal and orthodontic-related procedures. We have extensive experience making young patients feel safe and comfortable throughout their visit.
