Do You Need to See an Oral Surgeon?

Many procedures traditionally handled by oral surgeons can also be performed by experienced general dentists with advanced training. At Longmont Dental Loft, we complete most oral surgeries in-house, including dental implants, bone grafting, sinus lifts, and full-arch restoration. In many cases, you do not need to visit a separate specialist.

Oral Surgeries We Perform

We perform a wide range of surgical procedures in our Longmont office, with advanced imaging and sedation options to ensure comfort and precision.

Dental Implants

Dental implants replace individual missing teeth by placing a small titanium post in the jaw to support a custom crown, bridge, or denture. They function and feel like natural teeth while helping preserve long-term bone health.

All-on-X Dental Implants

A full-arch dental implant solution, often referred to as All-on-4, replaces an entire upper or lower set of teeth using four or more implants. It provides a stable, long-term alternative to dentures and restores both function and confidence.

Bone Grafts

Bone grafts strengthen areas of the jaw that need additional support, often in preparation for dental implants. Over time, the graft integrates naturally with your existing bone to create a stable foundation.

Sinus Lifts

A sinus lift is performed when additional bone support is needed in the upper jaw before placing dental implants. The procedure gently raises the sinus membrane to create space for bone grafting and long-term implant stability.

Tooth Extractions

Tooth extractions may be recommended when a tooth is severely damaged, infected, or cannot be restored. We perform extractions with careful planning and offer sedation options to help ensure your comfort.

Biopsies (Oral Pathology)

If we notice an area of concern in your mouth, we may recommend a small biopsy to better understand what is causing it. A tiny tissue sample is gently removed and sent to a lab for evaluation.

The Implant Center at Longmont Dental Loft

Our Implant Center was created to provide a calm, focused environment for dental implants and advanced oral surgery. By performing complex procedures in a space built specifically for surgical care, we are able to combine precision with comfort.

IV Sedation for Oral Surgery

IV sedation helps you remain deeply relaxed during oral surgery, and most patients remember very little afterward. As one of the few general dental practices in Boulder County offering IV sedation, we provide advanced surgical care in a comfortable and carefully monitored setting.
