Dental Implant Placement

Dental implants don't just replace missing tooth roots. They also help preserve your facial structures by reducing the risk of jawbone atrophy. Implants support a variety of restorations, including dental crowns, bridges, and dentures. Bill Stofer, DDS, and his experienced staff can perform every aspect of dental implant care right here in our Warsaw, IN, office.

Bone Grafting

Jawbone degradation can occur due to trauma or prolonged tooth loss. Bone graft surgery involves adding donor tissue to areas of bone loss to increase density and provide better support to the facial features. Grafts are often necessary prior to dental implant surgery. In many cases, they can be performed at the same time as tooth extraction to preserve the site for an implant later on.

Soft-Tissue Biopsy

If a patient has abnormal lesions in their mouth, a soft-tissue biopsy may be necessary. A biopsy is the surgical removal of a small piece of tissue for further testing. A soft-tissue biopsy can detect oral pre-cancer and cancer in its early stages, when it can be most effectively treated. Bill Stofer, DDS, can perform this type of biopsy and refer you to another specialist if necessary.

How Does Dental Implant Placement Work?

"The staff was amazing and so caring." Another Great Review for Our Experienced Team

"I had a tooth issue over the weekend.  First thing on Monday morning I called and they got me an appointment for that same day.  The staff was amazing and so caring.  Dr Stofer was a “gentle giant” with a spot on assessment and understanding personality!
I left with one less tooth, but a thankful heart for finding an amazing dental office!"

Sedation for Oral Surgery Procedures

For the comfort of our patients, Dr. Stofer provides sedative medications for every surgery procedure performed at our office. Below, we will briefly explore each type so you can be well-informed about your options.

Nitrous Oxide

Commonly called "laughing gas", nitrous oxide is a sedative that is inhaled through a nosepiece. The effects can be felt within minutes, and Dr. Stofer can adjust the dosage throughout your appointment. Because nitrous oxide leaves the system quickly, patients can drive themselves to and from our office.

Oral Sedation

Typically administered in pill form, oral conscious sedation offers a deeper level of relaxation. The dosage is determined according to the patient's height, weight, and medical history. Patients are still able to breathe on their own, unlike general anesthesia in a hospital. Therefore, you can still communicate with Dr. Stofer as necessary throughout your appointment.

Intravenous

The strongest sedative typically available in a dental office, this method delivers medication directly to the bloodstream. The effects are felt right away. It is one of the safest forms, as the dosage can be adjusted – or even reversed – immediately. This type of sedative is usually recommended for patients who are extremely anxious or undergoing lengthy procedures.

Due to the nature of oral and intravenous sedatives, patients who opt for sedation must have a responsible friend or family member drive them home after their appointment. These medications have a temporary effect on motor skills and cognitive ability. Patients should not drive for 24 to 48 hours after their surgical appointment.

Keeping Your Care Affordable With Insurance and Financing

Undergoing an oral or maxillofacial surgery can have life-changing benefits for your health and comfort, but the price point may give you pause. Bill Stofer, DDS, wants his Warsaw patients to enjoy peace of mind when it comes to the affordability of their treatments, so we gladly accept most insurance plans. A member of our knowledgeable office staff will be available to look into the details of your plan to help you secure the best possible coverage. 

If you are uninsured or have high out-of-pocket expenses for your care, you have options. We accept financing through CareCredit®, which offers loans with little or no interest that are repayable in monthly installments. For your convenience, we also accept online payments through a secure private portal.
