Sedation Dentistry for Oral Surgeries

Our dentist will examine your treatment needs and health medical history during your surgical consultation to determine the safest, most effective sedation level.
Top oral surgeries at the Center for Progressive Dentistry include:
Dental Implant Placement
If you're missing one or more teeth, Dr. Bedich specializes in permanent tooth restoration using dental implants. These implants provide enduring and natural-looking results by utilizing titanium posts implanted into the jawbone, supporting luminous crowns. They impose no dietary restrictions and are designed to last a lifetime.
We offer various dental implant systems, including:
- Single Dental Implants
- All-on-4® Dental Implants
- Hybrid Dental Implants
- Implant-Retained Dentures
Bone Grafts
Periodontal disease can compromise the jawbone, posing a challenge for dental implant support. Dr. Bedich might recommend bone grafting (natural bone regeneration) to stimulate jawbone growth if you face this issue. This specialized treatment prompts the jawbone to regenerate, gaining strength to support a dental implant.
Sinus Lift Surgery
Sinus lift surgery, or maxillary sinus elevation, addresses inadequate bone height for dental implant support or when sinuses obstruct implant placement. This surgery enhances implant stability using a bone graft, providing added security for dental implants.
Ridge Augmentation
Post-tooth extraction, ridge augmentation involves placing a bone graft into the empty socket to recreate the natural shape of the gums and jaw. This prevents jawbone deterioration, allowing future use of dentures or dental implants. Ridge augmentation benefits overall smile health, enhancing appearance and stability and reducing gaps between gums and dental restorations.
Tooth Extractions
Tooth extractions can be performed in emergencies due to trauma, injury, or preventive measures. Dr. Bedich provides extractions for patients in pain, discomfort, or infections caused by irreparable tooth damage. Surgical or simple extractions are determined after a dental exam, and digital x-rays assess the extent of damage.
Frenectomy
Conducted with Waterlase Dentistry, frenectomies offer a gentle and efficient solution for treating tongue-ties and enhancing oral function. This procedure, characterized by minimal discomfort and rapid healing, releases the restrictive frenulum, improving speech and tongue movement and reducing the risk of gum recession. Whether for infants or adults, Waterlase Dentistry simplifies frenectomies as a beneficial treatment option.
