Follow a plan built from earlier phases
Surgery is guided by the restorative blueprint and imaging review completed earlier in the RISE Protocol. That helps implant position, extractions, and reconstruction support the final bite and smile design.

Surgery
Surgery is the phase where the team creates the foundation for your new teeth. That may include removing failing teeth, treating infection, rebuilding bone support, and placing dental implants when appropriate.
For many patients, this is the most intimidating part of treatment. At Regional Implant Centers, surgery is not performed in isolation. It is coordinated with the restorative plan, imaging findings, and comfort planning from the beginning.
Your oral surgeon focuses on the surgical foundation while anesthesia support helps address comfort, monitoring, and safety based on your health history and procedure needs.
How This Phase Works
Surgery planned around comfort, safety, and the final result
This phase is about building a stable foundation for the teeth you will live with long term. The goal is not simply to place implants. The goal is to create a surgical result that supports function, esthetics, and the overall rehabilitation plan.
Address infection, failing teeth, and bone needs
When needed, the surgical team manages extractions, infection, bone loss, and complex anatomy. Some patients need additional reconstruction before or during implant placement. Not every patient needs the same surgical steps.
Support comfort and safety appropriately
Depending on your health history, anxiety level, and procedure length, the team may recommend local anesthesia, sedation, or anesthesiologist-supported care. The right comfort plan is chosen after reviewing your medical history and treatment needs.
Prepare for the next stage of restoration
After surgery, the focus shifts toward healing, temporary teeth when appropriate, and coordination with the prosthodontist and lab team so the restorative phase can move forward with clarity.
