Oral Surgery Procedures We Perform
Surgical Tooth Extraction When teeth cannot be removed with simple extraction—such as broken teeth, teeth with curved roots, or teeth fused to bone—surgical extraction is required. We make a small incision, sometimes section the tooth, and carefully remove it with minimal trauma to surrounding tissue.
Wisdom Tooth Removal Impacted wisdom teeth (third molars) often require surgical removal. These teeth may be trapped under the gum, growing at angles, or only partially erupted. Surgical removal prevents pain, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth.
Tooth Exposure for Orthodontics When a tooth (often a canine) is impacted and needs to be brought into alignment with braces, we surgically expose the tooth and attach a bracket, allowing the orthodontist to guide it into position.
Pre-Prosthetic Surgery Surgery to prepare the mouth for dentures, implants, or other prosthetics. This may include smoothing bone ridges, removing excess tissue, or other modifications for optimal prosthetic fit.
Biopsy When unusual tissue or lesions are found in the mouth, we may perform a biopsy to determine whether further treatment is needed.
Frenectomy Removal or modification of the frenum (the tissue connecting lips or tongue to the gums) when it restricts movement or causes dental problems.
When is Surgical Extraction Needed?
Surgical extraction (versus simple extraction) is typically needed when:
- The tooth is impacted (trapped beneath the gum)
- The tooth is broken at or below the gum line
- The tooth has curved or multiple roots
- The tooth is fused to the bone (ankylosis)
- There's significant bone loss around the tooth
- Previous extraction attempts were unsuccessful

Oral Surgery FAQs
What procedures fall under oral surgery?
Oral surgery includes surgical tooth extractions, impacted wisdom tooth removal, tooth exposure for orthodontics, pre-prosthetic surgery, biopsies, frenectomies, and other procedures requiring incisions or bone work. Complex cases that can't be handled with routine techniques require oral surgery.
Is oral surgery painful?
You won't feel pain during oral surgery because we use effective local anesthesia (and sedation if needed). After surgery, some discomfort and swelling is normal but manageable with prescribed or over-the-counter pain medication. Most patients find it much easier than anticipated.
How do I prepare for oral surgery?
Follow any fasting instructions if sedation is planned. Arrange for someone to drive you home. Wear comfortable clothes. Don't smoke for 24 hours before surgery. Inform us of all medications and health conditions. We'll provide specific instructions based on your procedure.
What is recovery like after oral surgery?
Recovery varies by procedure but typically involves rest, ice application, soft foods, and avoiding smoking and straws for the first few days. Most people return to normal activities within a few days to a week. We provide detailed post-operative instructions and follow-up care.
When is surgical extraction needed?
Surgical extraction is needed when teeth are impacted (trapped under the gum), broken at the gum line, have curved roots, are fused to bone, or can't be removed with standard techniques. Wisdom teeth often require surgical extraction because they're frequently impacted.
What are the risks of oral surgery?
As with any surgery, risks include bleeding, infection, and reaction to anesthesia, though these are rare with proper technique and aftercare. Specific risks depend on the procedure and are discussed during consultation. Following post-operative instructions minimizes complications.
