Dental surgery includes procedures that help solve dental problems in the mouth and jaw area. At our office we offer:
- Tooth Extractions - Tooth removal is often needed when a tooth is too damaged to be fixed with a filling or a crown. It can also help prepare your mouth for implants or orthodontic care. No matter why it's needed, your dentist will keep you comfortable during the extraction.
- Sinus Lifts - This surgery makes more room in your upper jaw for dental implants.
- Bone Grafts - If your jaw doesn't have enough bone to support dental implants, a bone graft can help. This process involves adding bone tissue to your jaw to strengthen it.
- Dental Implant Placements - When you're missing a tooth, dental implants can be a game-changer. A dentist places a small metal post in your jawbone. Over time, this post fuses with your bone, providing a sturdy base for a replacement tooth or teeth. Your dentist uses computer-guided technology for the most precise placement.
There's no need to feel nervous about oral surgery. We offer dental sedation to keep you relaxed and pain-free. Our team is here to walk you through every step, providing the understanding and support you need.

Frequently Asked Questions About Oral Surgery
When would I need oral surgery?
Tooth extraction is often needed if a tooth is too damaged to repair or if it is damaging your other teeth. In some cases, you need to have teeth removed to make room for dentures or another dental restoration. If necessary, we'll recommend a bone graft to ensure your jaw is strong enough to support dental implants.
When can I exercise after oral surgery?
We recommend not exercising at all for the first 24 hours after oral surgery. Trying to do too much too soon can actually prolong healing. Vigorous exercise can loosen the blood clot on an extraction site and lead to a painful dry socket. For the next few days, a patient should limit activities to low-impact exercises as a precaution.
Is there much pain after oral surgery?
Your pain level will vary depending on the extent of your surgical procedure, your age, and your overall health. For some procedures, you may feel little or no pain as you recover. For more extensive procedures, you may have some soreness. In any case, we'll provide guidance to help you minimize pain and soreness.
