At Periodontal and Implant Surgeons of Houston, we believe informed patients make confident decisions. Whether you’re preparing for dental surgery, exploring payment options, or seeking post-op care tips, this Dental Patient Information page provides answers to our most frequently asked questions — all in one place.

  • Are dental procedures covered by insurance in Houston?

    Most basic dental work like exams, cleanings, and fillings is covered by standard Houston insurance plans, but the specifics can vary. Procedures like crowns, implants, or gum therapy may be partly covered—Our team will review your policy before starting so you know what to expect.

    If coverage falls short, flexible payment options help you get essential care anyway. Knowing what is and isn’t covered can make a big difference, and the Houston office prides itself on transparency and honest answers for every patient.

  • How do I choose the best implant surgeon in Houston?

    Start by looking for board certification, specialized training, and lots of experience—in Houston, Dr. Arun brings all three, delivering digital smile design and proven implant results. Reviewing before-and-after photos, asking about technology, and reading reviews from other Houstonians helps clarify your choice.

    Dr. Arun’s friendly approach, honest advice, and clear communication make him stand out among implant surgeons in Houston. Locals trust that they’re not just “another case,” but treated as part of the family.

  • How should I care for my teeth after a dental procedure?

    After dental work, gentle brushing, daily saltwater rinses, and avoiding very hot, spicy, or crunchy foods until fully healed. Keeping up with post-op appointments helps catch any issues early, and the office provides written, easy-to-follow recovery guides for Houston patients.

    If any discomfort, swelling, or bleeding lasts more than a couple days, the team welcomes calls for reassurance and quick solutions. With proactive care, you’ll heal faster and protect your investment in dental health.

  • How do I prepare for my dental surgery?

    Before surgery, our team lays out everything: pre-op instructions, any required fasting, a checklist for medications, and details on arranging transportation. Preparation is designed to minimize stress and help things run smoothly on the day of the procedure.

    You’ll get a call from staff to go over logistics and answer any concerns—so no part of the experience is left vague or unexpected. This makes the surgery day easier and gives you the confidence that everything is set up for a safe, smooth recovery.
