Schedule with Dr. NaderiTransforming Anxiety Into Confidence
Dr. Sonny Naderi's path to becoming one of Richmond's most trusted oral surgery specialists was shaped by a simple but powerful observation: many patients avoided necessary dental treatment not because of the procedures themselves, but because of fear and anxiety. This realization became his calling — to create an environment where even the most anxious patients could receive exceptional surgical care without stress or discomfort.
After graduating from the University of Texas Dental School in 2008, Dr. Naderi pursued advanced fellowship training in oral surgery at Montefiore Medical Center in 2014, one of the nation's premier teaching hospitals. This intensive training equipped him with the surgical expertise and sedation skills that would become the foundation of his practice. Over the years, he has performed over 25,000 wisdom tooth extractions and placed more than 1,000 dental implants, building a reputation for precision, efficiency, and compassionate care.
Today, Dr. Naderi's greatest satisfaction comes from helping patients who have delayed treatment for years due to dental anxiety — whether it's finally having wisdom teeth removed after putting it off for a decade, or overcoming fear to receive life-changing dental implants. He takes pride in making complex surgical procedures feel manageable and stress-free.

Expertise includes: Simple extractions, complex impacted wisdom teeth, multiple extractions in one visit, and same-day emergency appointments for urgent wisdom tooth pain.
Dental Implant Surgery
Having placed and restored over 1,000 dental implants, Dr. Naderi brings both surgical expertise and restorative knowledge to every implant case. He works closely with Dr. Jasmine Naderi on full-mouth reconstruction, coordinating surgical and restorative phases for seamless treatment.
Advanced capabilities: Single and multiple implants, bone grafting, sinus lifts, immediate placement, and full-arch implant-supported dentures.
Sedation Dentistry
Dr. Naderi's dual certification in IV sedation and oral sedation dentistry sets him apart from general dentists. He has the experience and training to provide safe, effective sedation tailored to each patient's anxiety level and medical history.
