I had a complete upper set put in with 6 implants and I couldn’t be happier with how they are doing so far! Before I got them done, you wouldn’t catch me smiling with my teeth but after getting my implants I can’t stop finding a reason to smile!!

I was fully awake when Dr. Robinson extract one of my molar roots, (the tooth had broke off leaving the root in my gums). An infection underneath the root had eroded the jaw bone, ... I won't describe the procedure because it is horrible to think about. Nevertheless, Dr. Robinson was quick and efficient making the whole procedure go by in what seemed like seconds. The stitching took another minute. I took only one ibuprofen 800mg tablet when I got home. I did not need to take any more afterwards, and I was amazed how well the procedure went. Thus I was so grateful to Dr Robinson's expertness. That was six months ago, and yesterday my jaw bone was ready for the implant post. I was literally knocked out by the Triazolam, and remained mostly unconscious for the next 8 hours. I breifly woke up a couple of hours after the surgery just to take one ibuprofen 800mg tablet in anticipation to future pain. The pain never came. I know that is unbelievable, but true. I had no pain other than a very mild headache; had no bleeding, (except for the evidence I later found on my pants). 13 hours later and still only a very mild headache. I did not even need an aspirin or anything; and now it is 30 hours later. I am still amazed!
