Teeth-In-An-Hour™ | Midtown Raleigh NC
Replacing Teeth in One Visit
TEETH-IN-AN-HOUR™ is a revolutionary concept providing patients with fully functioning teeth on dental implants in one single procedure that lasts about an hour. This technology was recently developed by Nobel Biocare and allows for collaboration between both the restorative doctor and the surgeon. This merging of knowledge and experience achieves not only increased safety, but also a more precise implant placement. In addition, the fabrication of a final prosthesis is completed prior to the surgery. The computer-guided implant surgery is done in an arthroscopic fashion without requiring any flap reflection. This benefits the patient in that there is less postoperative discomfort, less swelling and less bruising. Patients can often resume their normal activities the next day.
The process starts when a CT scan is taken of the patient's jawbone. This CT scan allows for the generation of a three-dimensional model of the jawbone that can then be used in virtual reality software to plan the implant placement without the presence of the patient. The results are more accurate implant placement, and less chair time for the patient at the surgery office.

I'm so grateful to have found this office. I needed extensive work done and have a fear of dental procedures. Dr. Cavola has been a god send ( sounds cheesy I know). He has been very kind and compassionate, went over my procedure with me and actually listened to my questions. Surgery went well and he even saw me today because of my irrational concerns and he didn't make me feel stupid for seeing him ( plus we were able to talk directly to HIM on the phone yesterday). And not only the the dr awesome but his office staff and nurses are great too I will be recommending him to all of my friends and family and will be seeing him for any future work that I need.

I have grown a fear of having dental work done. Thankfully i was referred to Capital Oral & Facial Surgery for 4 teeth to be pulled! They had only been crowned a few short years ago. My tmj kills me and I can't open my mouth too wide. This entire office staff assured me of no pain today and said all the right things to try to ease my anxiety which was over a 10! Thanks everyone for getting me through!!!!!!

really can't say enough good things about Dr. Ahmad and his staff at Capital Oral and Facial Surgery. If you need wisdom teeth removed this is the place to go. I had all four of mine removed by Dr. Ahmad about two weeks ago. It was a great experience I have to say. After hearing all the horror stories from family and friends it is easy to expect the worst. I'm happy to say it was a very pleasant experience. I don't remember any of the procedure. After the procedure I really did not have any pain and would have been okay with no pain medicine. I put this procedure off for years and seemed to have lucked out with Dr. Ahmad. Really cool guy. He even called me to check on me later the day of the surgery. I certainly plan on returning to Capital Oral and Facial in the future, should the need arise. On another note...the anesthesia is the best sleep you'll ever have. -Antwan

I started to have some discomfort with my wisdom teeth, so I searched online for reviews of oral sugeons in the area. I picked Capital Oral Surgery because I liked what I read and their website. I was very pleased with the facility and service when I came for my initial appointment. The surgery was a piece of cake. I didnt feel a thing. Of course, I was put to sleep. When I woke up, we were done. I didnt believe it. It felt like we just started. I didnt take any of the pain medication afterwards and healed great. I highly recommend Dr. Ahmad to anybody who needs their wisdom teeth out. It was easy and painless.

I am an older patient and did not want anesthesia but a local to have my wisdom tooth removed. I came in very scared but the staff and the doctor reassured me and the procedure went smoothly and I was very pleased with the entire procedure and experience. I would highly recommend the doctor and his staff.
