Oral surgery includes a wide range of procedures. Common types include:

  • Tooth Extractions. This dental oral surgery is the removal of damaged or impacted teeth, such as wisdom teeth, to ease pain and prevent further dental problems.
  • Oral Implant Surgery. This procedure is inserting dental implants into the jawbone to replace missing teeth, offering a stable and long-lasting solution for tooth loss.
  • Corrective Jaw Surgery. Also called orthognathic surgery, this procedure corrects misaligned jaws, improving function and appearance.
  • Oral Maxillofacial Surgery. This advanced form of surgery addresses complex issues about the facial bones, such as fractures, tumors, and congenital deformities.
  • Emergency Oral Surgery. Performed in urgent situations, this surgery addresses acute dental trauma, infections, or sudden dental pain requiring immediate intervention.
  • Progressive Oral Surgery. This involves advanced techniques and treatments to manage ongoing dental conditions and improve oral health over time.

These procedures are important for maintaining dental health, restoring function, and improving the overall quality of life.

I have been to many dentists throughout the years, mainly because as a kid too young adult, I did not take good care of my teeth, so now im paying the price. This is by far the best dentist i have ever been to, he redid the work of a bad crown from another dentist and also did an implant for me, during the entire process of both procedures during different time frames he made me feel comfortable and took his time with me, answering all my questions. It's refreshing to have a dentist who doesn't rush from door to door, taking in multiple patients at once. After the implant tooth was put in, if I needed more adjustments, he let me know to call, and he will make time to get it adjusted for me. Also, so far, appointments have been very spot on, at most 5 - 10 min wait, but sometimes I get in even earlier. This is my main dentist now for all work going forward.

Why us

Oral Surgery Procedure

gum disease prevention
Consultation

The process begins with a consultation at oral surgery clinics. During this appointment, the oral surgery dentist will review your medical history, conduct a careful examination, and discuss your specific needs. This may include X-rays or other imaging to plan the surgery effectively.

Oral Surgery Procedure

Before the surgery starts, the anesthesiologist will give you anesthesia to avoid unpleasant sensations. The type of anesthesia depends on the complexity of the procedure. For oral and facial surgery, the dentist may perform tasks such as tooth extractions, corrective jaw surgery, or oral implant surgery. The procedure’s length varies based on the complexity and the number of surgeries being performed.

Post-Op Details

After the surgery, you will receive detailed post-operative care instructions. This typically includes managing pain with prescribed medications, applying ice packs to reduce swelling, and maintaining a soft-food diet for a few days. Regular follow-up appointments may be scheduled to monitor your healing progress.

Information

What is Oral Surgery?

Oral surgery refers to surgical interventions carried out in the mouth, jaw, and facial areas. This type of surgery is typically carried out by specialized dentists known as oral surgeons. Dental oral surgery can address a variety of issues, including tooth extractions (such as wisdom teeth removal), corrective jaw surgery, dental implants, treatment of oral cancers, and so on. Oral surgeons are skilled in addressing complex dental and facial problems, ensuring that patients receive specialized care to their health needs.

Preparation for Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Preparation for oral and maxillofacial surgery is important to ensure a smooth procedure and the best possible outcomes. Here are some common steps:

  • Consultation. Schedule an initial consultation with oral surgery specialists to discuss your medical history, current medications, and any allergies. This makes the procedure safer for patients. 
  • Pre-Surgery Instructions. Follow any specific instructions provided by your oral dental surgery team. This could involve fasting for a specific time before the surgery, avoiding certain medications, and organizing transportation to and from the surgery center.
  • Medication Management. Inform your surgeon about all medications and supplements you are taking. It may be necessary to adjust or even stop taking some medications completely before and / or after the oral mouth surgery.
  • Home Preparation. Prepare your home for post-surgery recovery. Stock up on soft foods, pain medications, and ice packs. Create a comfortable resting area to relax during your recovery period.
  • Post-Surgery Support. Arrange for a friend or family member to assist you immediately after the surgery, if necessary.

By following these simple preparation steps, you can help ensure a successful oral and maxillofacial surgery and a smoother recovery process.
