Great experience! Love the team. I saw Angela and Dr. Mangrum today-5 stars as always. The team is welcoming. I had left the practice for a few years due to travel distance but found myself back because of
Petaluma Dental Group's attention to detail and extraordinary service! Their commitment to patient comfort and thorough care makes the extra travel worth it.

Excellent experience at Petaluma Dental. They got my husband in same day due to a lost tooth. They had to remove roots from the lost tooth and then found out the tooth next to it was also bad and infected so it also
had to be removed. Dr. Mangrum was amazing - so kind and explained everything. She made us feel comfortable and this was our first visit. I would recommend Dr. Mangrum and the Petaluma Dental group to anyone who needs excellent and compassionate dental care.

FAQs
Dental implants are like prosthetic tooth roots inserted into your jawbone by a dentist. Crafted from biocompatible titanium, they offer a sturdy foundation for replacement teeth. This post supports a replacement tooth or bridge, offering a stable, long-lasting solution mining natural teeth look, feel, and function.
After receiving dental implants, you can typically resume eating soft foods within a few days. However, it's advisable to avoid hard or chewy foods for about 2-3 months to allow proper healing & integration of the implant with the jawbone. It's essential to follow your dentist's guidelines for proper healing.
The dental implant procedure usually takes about 1-2 hours per implant. However, the entire process, including preparation, healing, and placement of the final crown, can span several months. This allows time for the implant to integrate with the jawbone, ensuring a secure and long-lasting fit.
While discomfort may occur during and after the dental implant procedure, most patients report minimal pain. Local anesthesia is used during the surgery to ensure comfort, and any post-operative soreness can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain medications.
