When Is Oral Surgery Necessary?
Oral surgery is often required to treat conditions that are beyond the scope of a standard dental procedure. It is a precise approach to solving a variety of complex dental issues and can restore both the function and health of your smile. Common oral surgery procedures include:
- Tooth Extractions: This is often the case with severely decayed, impacted, or crowded teeth, such as wisdom teeth.
- Dental Implant Placement: For patients who are missing teeth, oral surgery is a vital step in placing the secure, permanent foundation for a new implant.
- Bone Grafting: This procedure adds bone volume to your jaw to prepare it for a dental implant.
