Oral Surgery

Although an upcoming dental treatment may cause anxiety and concern, surgery is often crucial for maintaining your oral health. If you are experiencing problems such as missing or damaged teeth, oral surgery may be necessary to address the issues and avoid any complications in the future.

What Does an Oral Surgeon Do?

Oral surgeons perform surgical procedures on the teeth, gums, and jaws. This may include dental implants, root canals, and jaw surgeries. Whether you need your impacted wisdom teeth removed, or infected tooth pulp cleaned out, oral surgery is an effective solution.

Recovering From Oral Surgery

Depending on the type of oral surgery you receive, your dentist will give you instructions on how to recover. Typically, after surgery, we recommend getting lots of rest, applying cold compresses, and using over-the-counter medication to ease any pain.
