Why Do I Need Oral Surgery?

One of the most common questions that we get asked is why people need oral surgery. We understand that you might be hesitant, but this is only something that we recommend as a last resort. Some of the most common reasons why people need oral surgery include:

• If you are missing a tooth, we can use a dental implant to replace your missing tooth.
• If there is something wrong with your jaw, we may be able to correct it using oral surgery.
• If there is a severe infection in your mouth, we might be able to use oral surgery to help you.
• If there is a benign lump or bump in your mouth, we might be able to remove it for you.

We will always talk about all of your treatment options with you. Then, we will explain exactly what has to be done to help you fix the problem.

What Are My Sedation Options?

Of course, we will do everything we can to keep you as comfortable as possible during the procedure. We have plenty of sedation options available. For example, there might be some situations where you only need local anesthesia. Then, there might be other situations where you need something more powerful. We also have laughing gas available.

Before we use sedation to help you, we will talk with you about your past medical history. We want to make sure that you are not allergic to any anesthesia options. If you have a history of past allergic reactions, we will discuss alternatives with you.

What Is the Recovery Process Like? 

Once the procedure is done, we will go through the recovery process with you. The exact length of the recovery process will vary depending on the type of procedure that is done. There is a chance that you might recover in a few days. In other situations, it might take a few months to complete the recovery process. We will be with you, monitoring your recovery every step. That way, we are here to help you with any concerns. We will also make sure that we answer any questions you might have.
