Tooth Implant Guide is a free service that connects patients with local dental-implant providers and clinics. We are not a dental practice, we do not provide dental care, and nothing here is medical advice. Always consult a licensed dentist or oral surgeon.

The short answer

Implant placement is done under local anesthesia, and often sedation, so you should not feel pain during surgery. Afterward, mild to moderate soreness, swelling, and bruising for a few days are normal and usually managed with over-the-counter or prescribed pain relief. Tell your provider about your medical history so they can plan anesthesia safely.
