3D Cone Beam CBCT imaging technology is utilized to evaluate, diagnose, and plan for your treatment. This three dimensional imaging allows Dr. Kriegel to not only view the tooth or teeth in question, but also allows him to analyze the surrounding bone, neurological pathways, and sinuses. Meshing this imaging with intraoral scanning data allows the surgery to be performed digitally and precisely many times prior to the actual surgery. Once planned, a 3D printer is utilized for every surgery to print your teeth, surgical guides, stents, and any other models necessary to ensure the best outcome. This allows the surgical process to be very unique, intentional, and digitally driven to ensure it is performed as minimally invasive as possible.
Before performing surgery, Dr. Kriegel considers human biology and physiology in your body’s need for supportive supplementation. We focus on supporting the immune system, activating bone and soft tissue regeneration, and accelerating your body’s natural healing mechanisms. Supporting these processes through the use of nutrients, minerals, and vitamins is integral for optimal outcomes. Dr. Kriegel will personalize a protocol that meets your body’s specific needs and may include vitamin D3, vitamin K2, vitamin C, magnesium, and omegas.
On the day of surgery, many protocols are set in motion to allow for a safe, effective, and predictable surgery that will propel your healing forward. Minimally invasive techniques are utilized to allow for more predictable healing and minimize trauma. A multitude of laser wavelengths as well as ozone are used to ensure proper disinfection and cleaning of surgical sites and infection. Advanced Platelet Rich Fibrin (A-PRF, i-PRF), a blood concentrate composed of your fibrin, platelets, growth factors, and stem cells is used in all surgical sites to stimulate natural repair processes for weeks after surgery. The combination of these modalities allows for an upregulation of natural blood flow and an increase in cell function with the goal of faster healing and regeneration with minimal postoperative discomfort.
And finally, it is time to heal. You will leave with all of the information you need to manage any postoperative discomfort, prevent complications, and thrive in your healing process.
Every surgery is customized and tailored to the individual, however there are four foundational steps that ensure optimal outcomes and predictable results.
Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), also known as Photobiomodulation, is cutting edge technology utilizing various wavelengths of light to stimulate cell function and regeneration. In a process similar to photosynthesis, the ATP38 uses multiple wavelengths of light at different time frames and intensities to tap into your natural cell functions, amplifying cell proliferation and increasing ATP production.

At Vios, we offer an innovative approach to dental surgery by integrating IV Vitamin C therapy into our treatment protocols. Vitamin C, renowned for its antioxidant properties and essential role in collagen synthesis and immune function, serves as a supportive adjunct to our treatments. By administering Vitamin C intravenously during surgery, we provide our patients with a powerful boost to their systemic health and healing capabilities. Beyond its well-documented benefits for overall health, including immune support and tissue repair, IV Vitamin C plays a particularly crucial role in the dental setting.
It helps mitigate oxidative stress, reduce inflammation, and enhance wound healing, thereby promoting optimal recovery following oral surgeries such as extractions, implants, and periodontal procedures. IV Vitamin C has been shown to minimize post-operative pain and swelling while accelerating tissue regeneration, leading to quicker recovery times and improved patient comfort. By incorporating IV Vitamin C therapy into our dental surgeries, we strive to offer our patients a comprehensive approach to oral health that prioritizes both their immediate well-being and long-term vitality.

Our groundbreaking IV Laser Therapy technology is an innovative approach revolutionizing the landscape of dental surgery and health optimization. Harnessing the power of distinct colors, each carefully selected to serve a unique purpose, this advanced therapy represents the pinnacle of precision and effectiveness in healing and cellular regeneration. Just as Low Level Laser Therapy (link ATP 38 section) taps into the body's natural processes, our IV Laser Therapy delves even deeper, acting on a cellular level to ignite unparalleled rejuvenation and healing. With each color targeting specific cellular mechanisms, this therapy promises to redefine the boundaries of regenerative intervention, offering rejuvenation and restoration where it's needed most.
The red wavelength stands out for its significant physiological impact. By targeting the Cytochrome-C-Oxidase enzyme within the respiratory chain, red light stimulates ATP production, enhancing cellular energy levels and cardiovascular performance. Additionally, its influence extends to neuronal functions within the central nervous system and fortifies immune defenses by supporting specific immune cells. Notably, red light is absorbed by leucocytes while being reflected by erythrocytes, highlighting its selective cellular interactions and therapeutic potential in cellular repair and immune modulation.
The blue wavelength commands attention for its multifaceted physiological effects. Upon introduction into the bloodstream, blue light swiftly interacts with porphyrins and hemoglobin, facilitating essential processes within the body. Notably, it enhances microcirculation and oxygen perfusion by augmenting nitric oxide (NO) production, thereby fostering cellular vitality and metabolic efficiency. Additionally, its capacity to increase nitric oxide further underscores its role in optimizing oxygen delivery and utilization. Moreover, blue light exerts a remarkable influence on cellular longevity, activating telomerase and safeguarding telomeres, pivotal determinants of cellular lifespan and overall longevity. Blue light demonstrates potent bactericidal properties, operating through the stimulation of the respiratory chain at the NADH-dehydrogenase level, effectively neutralizing a broad spectrum of bacteria in the bloodstream by leveraging the absorption of bacterial porphyrins and the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In essence, blue IV Laser Therapy emerges as a formidable ally in promoting circulatory health, cellular longevity, oxygen perfusion and delivery, and immune resilience, offering promising avenues for therapeutic intervention.
The green wavelength emerges as a compelling agent with distinct physiological effects. Upon introduction into the bloodstream, green laser light exhibits a unique interaction with erythrocytes, being readily absorbed and consequently not visible when observed through the vein. This absorption is followed by a series of pivotal events: green light binds to hemoglobin, enhancing oxygen supply by dissociating adhesive hemoglobin from vessel walls. Moreover, it stimulates the sodium-potassium-ATPase of erythrocyte membranes and activates mitochondria, particularly through the cytochrome-c-reductase at complex III. This dual action culminates in a significant increase in oxygen uptake. Green light augments ATP production by approximately 30%, underscoring its role in bolstering cellular energy reserves and metabolic efficiency. In essence, green IV Laser Therapy represents a potent modality for optimizing oxygen delivery, enhancing cellular vitality, and promoting metabolic homeostasis, offering promising avenues for therapeutic advancement.

We understand that dental anxiety is real. In fact, many individuals have such high levels of fear surrounding the dentist that they avoid appointments altogether. This is detrimental to your oral health over time. To help patients receive the high-quality care they deserve, we offer nitrous oxide and conscious sedation. These medications help induce relaxation and increase comfort for a low-stress dental visit.
