Does Dental Implant Surgery Hurt?

Posted By: Dr. Holly Baller

One of the most common concerns we hear from patients considering dental implants is whether the surgery is comfortable. At Baller Dental & Ortho, Dr. Holly Baller understands these concerns and does everything to ensure your comfort throughout the implant process.

Your Comfort Is Our Priority

Before beginning any procedure, Dr. Baller takes time to discuss concerns, answer questions, and explain exactly what to expect during and after implant surgery. This conversation is essential for creating a treatment plan that addresses your needs and ensures your comfort.

Advanced Technology for Precise Planning

At Baller Dental & Ortho in Aurora, we utilize state-of-the-art technology to make your implant procedure as efficient and comfortable as possible.

Our advanced 3-D cone beam scanning technology provides detailed images of your jaw structure. Digital treatment planning helps us determine the optimal implant placement for exceptional precision. This advanced preparation means less time in the dental chair and a smoother recovery.

Comprehensive Pain Management

We offer several options to ensure your comfort:

  • Local Anesthesia — Strong local anesthetics completely numb the surgical area, ensuring you won't feel any pain during the procedure. The anesthetic is carefully administered to provide maximum effectiveness.
  • Nitrous Oxide — Also known as "laughing gas," nitrous oxide helps you relax during the procedure while remaining conscious. It's a safe and effective way to reduce anxiety and discomfort.
  • Oral Sedation — If you prefer deeper relaxation, we offer sedative medications you can take before your appointment to help you feel calm and comfortable throughout the process.

What to Expect During the Procedure

Thanks to careful planning, the implant procedure is straightforward. Once you are comfortably settled and we numb the area, Dr. Baller carefully places the implant according to your treatment plan. Most patients report feeling pressure during the procedure but no pain.
