Repairing Your Dental Issues
Oral surgery refers to a range of surgical treatments used to fix issues impacting the mouth, teeth, and jaw. Surgery may be necessary to restore your oral health in cases where less invasive treatments would not suffice.
Finding out you need oral surgery may cause you some anxiety, but we want to assure you that our dentists and team of professionals will do everything we can to ease your concerns and make the process comfortable for you.
We will happily answer any questions you have and walk you through the process step-by-step to help put your mind at ease. We can offer sedation for your oral surgery to help you relax, and local anesthetic means you don't have to worry about pain or discomfort. Following surgery, you will be prescribed pain medication to help alleviate any related soreness.
Dental Implants
Dental implants fill in the gaps left by missing teeth. Without replacing a missing tooth, the surrounding teeth can shift towards the open space, causing the entire row of teeth to move out of place.
Combined with a dental prosthetic, like a crown or bridge, dental implants can restore your smile to its natural appearance and functionality.
Bone Grafts
When a tooth is missing, the part of the jaw bone that once anchored the tooth begins to break down as it is no longer stimulated. A bone graft is a procedure that is used to increase the amount of bone in a certain part of the jaw where bone has deteriorated.
These procedures can be used to provide additional reinforcements to an area so that it will be strong enough to support a dental implant.
Tooth Extractions
A tooth extraction is a last resort and won't be performed unless it's absolutely necessary. However, rest assured that we can offer you several tooth replacement options to restore your smile after the fact.
Wisdom Tooth Removal
Wisdom teeth are the last of your permanent teeth that will erupt. Often, they do not have enough room in the jaw to develop properly, resulting in dental problems. This makes their removal necessary.
