What Is Oral Surgery in Dentistry?
Oral surgery encompasses surgical treatments involving the teeth and jaw that cannot be addressed through routine dental care. This includes the removal of impacted or problematic teeth, complex extractions, and preparatory procedures necessary to support future restorative treatments such as dental implants.
Oral surgery is performed under appropriate anesthesia and comfort measures, which may include sedation dentistry depending on the procedure and patient preferences.
Our Oral Surgery Services

Wisdom teeth (third molars) often erupt in the late teens to early twenties. When they are impacted, partially erupted, or causing pain, infection, or crowding, removal may be recommended.

Our approach to wisdom teeth extraction includes:
- Thorough evaluation with diagnostic imaging
- Personalized surgical plan
- Comfort-focused anesthesia and sedation options
- Post-operative care guidance
Pre-Implant Surgery Preparatory Procedures
In cases where you require dental implants but lack sufficient bone volume, additional oral surgery procedures such as bone grafting or ridge augmentation may be recommended. These procedures help create a stable foundation for successful implant placement.
Our team coordinates closely between surgical planning and restorative care to support predictable implant outcomes.

Tooth Extractions
When a tooth cannot be saved through restorative care, extraction may be the best option to protect overall oral health. We perform both simple and surgical extractions with careful technique and patient comfort in mind.
Following extraction, options for tooth replacement — such as dental implants — are discussed to help restore chewing ability and jaw function.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is oral surgery painful?
We use local anesthesia and, if appropriate, sedation to ensure pain is managed effectively during the procedure. Mild discomfort or swelling afterward is normal and can be managed with post-operative care.
How long does recovery take?
Recovery varies by procedure and individual factors. Simple extractions often heal within a week, while more complex cases may take longer. We will provide clear guidance for your specific situation.
Do I need oral surgery before implants?
If you lack sufficient bone or need corrective surgery in the jaw, preparatory oral surgery may be necessary to support successful implant placement.
