Oral Surgery in Indianapolis, IN

For dental implant surgery to be successful, the jawbone must be thick and strong enough to support the implant post. If you have experienced bone loss due to missing teeth or infection, bone grafting is used to rebuild that foundation. We use advanced grafting materials to “bulk up” the area, ensuring your dental implants have a stable, long-lasting anchor.

PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is a cutting-edge treatment we use to accelerate healing after procedures like teeth extraction or gum grafting. We take a small sample of your own blood, concentrate the growth factors, and apply it directly to the surgical site. This natural “super-clot” significantly reduces post-operative pain, decreases the risk of infection, and helps your body regenerate tissue much faster.

Whether it is a simple teeth extraction or a more complex surgical removal, our priority is a comfortable, efficient experience. We use local anesthesia to ensure the area is completely numb. Once the tooth is removed, we often discuss immediate options for dental implants or perform a minor “socket” bone grafting to preserve the shape of your jaw for future restoration.

Gum grafting is a surgical procedure designed to restore the protective tissue around your teeth. If your gums have receded due to periodontal disease or aggressive brushing, we can transplant a small amount of healthy tissue to the affected area. This covers exposed roots, reduces tooth sensitivity, and protects your smile from further bone loss and decay.

While the surgical placement of dental implants typically involves only a few days of minor swelling or tenderness, the full integration process takes time. Thanks to the use of PRF and minimally invasive techniques, many of our Indianapolis patients return to their normal routine within 24 to 48 hours. However, the implant will continue to fuse with your bone over the next 3 to 6 months before the final custom crown is attached.
