I went to my primary dentist regarding what turned out to be a cracked tooth that needed to be removed and the process of an implant started. My dentist recommended Dr. Patel’s practice as his first choice for me. I found out that my son had been a patient of Dr. Patel’s and he enthusiastically recommended Lorton Springfield Oral Surgery. My dentist called and Dr. Patel was able to see me the next day.
From the time I entered the office of Lorton Springfield Oral Surgery to the time I left the staff were friendly, professional and understanding of my situation.

I thought I would be in the chair for at least 2 hours but Dr. Patel’s knowledge and expertise cut that time in half. Understanding my concerns regarding needles and the stress of this procedure Dr Patel and staff made the process practically painless. It was great to feel that I was heard and my concerns addressed.

After all was completed I left with the feeling that I was truly appreciated as a patient and now a friend. I would recommend Lorton Springfield Oral Surgery to family and friends.

I went to have my isdom teeth removed. Many dentist can do this as Dr. Patel did. The real issue was a complicated case of my Mother. She needed extensive work by the best professional team we could locate. The office is caring, professional and in our opinion one of the top dental surgery offices in the DMV area. You can feel comfortable going to this office for the most complicated cases.

Thanks for the flowers, I thought my surgery went VERY WELL, not much swelling or pain!!! Taking the Amoxicillin, a GREAT precaution for oral surgery. I really liked your prenumbing swab of the area before you gave me shots, and the options on pain managment (listed on web site). But you should confirm this before the day of procedure so the patient can decide BEFORE showing up. Also the light was VERY powerful shinning in the eyes. Recommend putting a cloth or blind over the patient’s eyes. Thanks again for pulling my tooth and will see you September 13th.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Dr. Patel for my dental implant procedure. From start to finish, the experience was top-notch. Dr. Patel and his staff were all incredibly friendly, professional, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. The procedure itself was done quickly and with minimal discomfort. I am extremely pleased with the results and I highly recommend Dr. Patel and his team to anyone in need of dental implant work. Thank you Dr. Patel for the great work!

I am a VERY anxious dental patient. Dr. Patel and his staff were very caring and compassionate. They offered twilight sedation for my tooth extraction. When I came time for the implant, I went with just local anesthesia. The whole procedure was very smooth and quicker than I anticipated. I’ve had fillings (at other places) that were worse than the implant! Would recommend them, and will definitely use them for an future needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Having surgery or dental implants can bring up a lot of questions — and that’s completely normal. Our patients often want to know what to expect at their first visit, how long recovery takes, or if their procedure will be painful. To put your mind at ease, we’ve put together answers to the most common questions we receive. Think of this as your quick guide to understanding our care, our process, and what makes our team trusted by patients across Lorton and Springfield.

What are dental implants?

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots, typically made from titanium, that are surgically placed into the jawbone beneath the gum line. This allows Dr. Sneha Patel, our board-certified oral surgeon, to mount replacement teeth or bridges into that area. Implants offer a stable and permanent solution to tooth loss, as they do not come loose like dentures.

Who is a good candidate for dental implants?

Ideal candidates for dental implants have healthy gums and adequate bone to support the implant, a commitment to maintaining good oral hygiene, and regular dental visits. Individuals with chronic disorders, such as diabetes or heart disease, or those who have undergone radiation therapy to the head/neck area, will be evaluated individually by Dr. Patel to determine suitability.

Are dental implants painful?

Most of our patients report that there is very little discomfort involved in the procedure. Dr. Patel uses local anesthesia to minimize pain during the surgery, and many patients experience less discomfort than during a tooth extraction. Post-procedure pain is typically mild and can be managed with over-the-counter pain medications.

How long does the dental implant process take?

The duration of the dental implant process varies based on the number of implants and individual conditions but generally spans from three to nine months. Dr. Patel’s expertise in advanced surgical techniques can also accommodate cases requiring bone grafts, which may extend the timeline slightly.

What are the benefits of dental implants over dentures or bridges?

Dental implants provide several advantages over traditional dentures or bridges. They are permanently anchored in your jawbone, offering better stability and comfort, and do not require adjacent teeth for support. Dr. Patel emphasizes that implants help prevent bone loss and gum recession, while offering an aesthetic and functional replacement that feels like your natural teeth.

Can dental implants fail?

While dental implants generally have a high success rate, potential failures can occur due to factors like infection, implant fracture, or insufficient bone support. Dr. Patel’s meticulous planning and follow-up care significantly lower the risk of such complications, ensuring long-term success for our patients.

How do I care for my dental implants?

Dr. Patel advises that caring for implants involves the same hygiene practices as natural teeth: regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups. He also recommends avoiding hard foods that might damage the implant or crown. For smokers, Dr. Patel offers guidance and support for quitting to enhance the health and longevity of the implants.

Are dental implants covered by insurance?

Coverage for dental implants can vary with each insurance plan. Dr. Patel’s administrative team can assist you in discussing your insurance benefits and options to understand the coverage available for your treatment.

What is the success rate of dental implants?

Under Dr. Patel’s expert care, dental implants have a success rate of up to 98%. With proper maintenance, these solutions can last a lifetime, affirming their status as the gold standard for tooth replacement.
