Simple extractions typically take 15-30 minutes per tooth, while complex impacted extractions may take 45-60 minutes. Our surgeons work efficiently while prioritizing safety and comfort.
Initial healing takes 1-2 weeks, with osseointegration (implant fusion with bone) occurring over 3-6 months. Most patients return to normal activities within a few days with proper post-operative care.
Modern anesthesia techniques ensure procedures are pain-free. Post-operative discomfort is managed with prescribed medications and typically subsides within a few days.
