During your initial appointment, Dr. Falender will perform a consultation explaining your diagnosis and outlining his recommended treatment options. Dr. Falender will help you determine the treatment plan that you feel comfortable with and choose the best option for anesthesia or sedation during the procedure.<\/p>\n<p>In some circumstances, surgery can be done the same day as the consultation. However, a complex medical history or treatment plan will require an evaluation and a second appointment to provide treatment on another day. Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery (e.g., diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are on any medication (e.g., heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.).<\/p>\n<p>If you will be undergoing IV anesthesia for surgery, a pre-operative consultation and physical examination are required prior to your treatment. On the day of treatment, you will need to arrange for an adult to drive you to the office and home following the procedure. Please do not eat or drink eight hours prior to your surgery if you are having general anesthesia.<\/p>\n<h2>X-Rays<\/h2>\n<p>If your dentist or physician has taken x-rays, please pick them up and bring them to our office. Even though you may have recent routine dental films, additional x-ray evaluation may be necessary for our team to develop the most efficient and effective treatment plan. Indianapolis Oral Surgery &amp; Dental Implant Center utilizes a specialized, digital x-ray technology called a panoramic x-ray, or Panorex, to more carefully evaluate your teeth and the supporting jaw bone. If additional films are necessary, we will take them at our office.<\/p>\n\t<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"932\" height=\"524\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YV3Qre_jDJM\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n\t<p>To learn more about how we can help improve your smile, please request an appointment now.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/indianapolisoralsurgery.com\/request-appointment\" target=\"_blank\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRequest Appointment\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n<h2>\n\t\tSCHEDULE A CONSULTATION\n\t<\/h2>\n\t<p>Please contact our office by either filling out the form below or by calling us at 317-900-4535<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/indianapolisoralsurgery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/About-Our-Pracitce-in-Indianapolis-IN-Indianapolis-Oral-Surgery-Dental-Implant-Center.jpg\" alt=\"About-Our-Pracitce-in-Indianapolis-IN-Indianapolis-Oral-Surgery-Dental-Implant-Center\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"1080\" width=\"1920\" title=\"About-Our-Pracitce-in-Indianapolis-IN-Indianapolis-Oral-Surgery-Dental-Implant-Center\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t<h3>Indianapolis Oral Surgery &amp; Dental Implant Center<\/h3>\n1320 N.
