Understanding Pain and Dental Implants
One of the biggest concerns for patients considering dental implants is the potential for pain. At Elonix Dental Clinic, we prioritize patient comfort and use advanced techniques to ensure a smooth and minimally invasive experience. This article addresses common questions about pain associated with dental implant procedures.
During the Implant Procedure
The dental implant surgery itself is not painful. Here’s why:
Local Anesthesia: We use effective local anesthesia to completely numb the surgical area, so you won’t feel any pain during the procedure.
Sedation Options: For anxious patients, we offer sedation options to help you relax and remain comfortable throughout the surgery.
After the Procedure: What to Expect
It is normal to experience some discomfort after the anesthesia wears off. However, this is typically mild and manageable. Most patients report that the discomfort is less than a tooth extraction.
Pain Level: Most discomfort occurs in the first 48 hours and can be managed with over-the-counter or prescribed pain medication.
Swelling and Bruising: Some swelling and minor bruising are common but will subside within a few days.
Recovery Time: Pain typically decreases significantly within 3-7 days. If you experience severe or worsening pain, contact our clinic immediately.
