What Is Dental Oral Surgery?
Oral surgery refers to any surgical procedures performed in or around your mouth and jaw by our dental professionals. Oral surgery covers a wide array of procedures that can increase your entire smile's function and health. Most common oral surgery procedures range from extractions to implant placement and bone grafts. When performing an oral surgery, we focus on addressing the underlying cause of pain or other oral problems you may be experiencing.
Our Extensive Dental Oral Surgery Services
We're pleased to provide a diverse list of surgical services to you and your family members. Our team at Friedl Dentistry takes pride in giving you the effective dental care you need efficiently, always addressing your needs as quickly as possible. We know there can be long waits for specialists, so we work hard to be a resource for you when your general dentist cannot provide you with more advanced treatments. Some of the services we provide include:
Bone Grafts: A bone graft involves transplanting bone tissue to areas of the jawbone experiencing a loss in volume or density. We can promote healthy bone growth by transplanting new bone to areas of your jawbone that have become thin or brittle. Bone grafts are often an excellent option for patients with missing teeth who have suffered bone loss or have a weakened jaw that cannot support implants.
Sinus Lifts: A sinus lift is a procedure that involves raising the sinus membranes in the upper portion of your jawbone and placing a bone graft. The bone graft acts as a way to strengthen your upper jaw and creates more room to place dental implants.
Dental Implants: Dental implants are an excellent way to replace one or multiple missing teeth. We'll place your implant posts, which will act as permanent tooth roots that bond to your jawbone. If you've been referred to us for implant placement, after the procedure, we'll send you back to your dentist to receive the dental restoration that will complete your smile.
Tooth Extractions: We offer skilled extractions for compromised teeth that our or your referring dentist has determined cannot be salvaged. We also offer wisdom tooth extractions and have extensive experience with many situations that can arise when wisdom teeth begin creating problems in your alignment.
Biopsies: We take biopsies when we have identified concerning growths that may indicate oral cancer. We will remove small amounts of gum or tooth tissue in targeted areas and send them to a trusted laboratory for analysis. We'll then be available to discuss the results at our practice or over the phone.
Full Clearance Extractions: We offer full clearance extractions in the case of advanced periodontal disease or extensive prevalence of cavities throughout your teeth. Full clearance extractions are generally performed as a step before receiving dentures. We will provide the extraction services and refer you to a trusted denture center where specialists will assess your needs.
Dental Oral Surgery FAQs
Whatever your particular needs are, it's normal to have questions about an upcoming oral surgery procedure. When you're our patient we strive to educate you so you're never in the dark about the treatments we provide. Some of the frequently asked questions we receive from patients include:
We recommend eating cool, soft foods like applesauce, yogurt, or cottage cheese on the day of the surgery, as hot foods can disrupt clot formation in affected areas. For the next few days, you should avoid eating crunchy foods that can irritate healing areas. Our dentist will give you a full list of recommended foods and after-care instructions, and if you have any other questions, don't hesitate to call our practice.
Most of our procedures are scheduled for a single day and are over within a few hours. We may require you to stay at our practice to recover for some time after the procedure depending on the type of surgery performed and the anesthesia we provide for your treatment.
In general, most dental surgeries are covered in part or completely by dental insurance plans. Your insurance plan will determine the amount of coverage for your procedure, and we're happy to discuss the best way to approach contacting your insurance company to help you determine your responsibility for the cost of the surgery.
