When you need oral surgery?
The following are some of the most common reasons your dentist might recommend oral surgery:
Our goal is to help you feel calm and confident before, during, and after your oral surgery.
Before surgery
Your oral surgeon and team will perform a comprehensive evaluation to check your teeth, gums, jaw joints, and surrounding structures. They will also take dental X-rays and scans to get a clear view of the structure of your jaw and mouth, including the nerves, jawbone, and tooth roots. With all this information, you will get a personalized treatment plan.
During surgery
You’ll be given some form of sedative to ensure you feel comfortable throughout the procedure. Your dentist will thoroughly numb your teeth and gums to ensure you don’t feel any pain during the procedure.
After surgery
After the surgery, you will need to rest for a while in the office so we can ensure there have been no complications. You will be given detailed post-operative instructions after your surgery; following these instructions closely to reduce the risk of bleeding, infection, and other complication is vital. You will have follow-up appointments to ensure everything is healing correctly.
