Is Getting a Dental Implant Painful?

In this video, Dr. Albert Hazzouri Jr. explains what patients should realistically expect when it comes to comfort during the dental implant procedure.

Most patients report that the procedure is far more comfortable than expected. Local anesthesia is used to ensure you do not feel pain during the placement. Because mini dental implants are less invasive, recovery is typically quicker and involves minimal discomfort. Many patients return to normal activities within a short period. If pain or fear has been preventing you from moving forward, a consultation will walk you through the process so you know exactly what to expect.
