FAQ
Oral surgery is often recommended when a tooth is too damaged to be repaired or when it threatens the health of surrounding teeth. In some cases, extractions are needed to make room for dentures or other dental restorations. If required, we may also recommend a bone graft to strengthen the jaw for future dental implants.
For proper healing, it is best to avoid strenuous activity for the first 24 hours after surgery. Physical exertion too soon can interfere with blood clotting and slow recovery. We recommend easing back into normal activity gradually over the next few days.
The level of discomfort depends on the type of procedure performed, but our goal is always to keep you as comfortable as possible. Many patients find that over-the-counter pain relievers are sufficient. If needed, your dentist can prescribe stronger medication to support your recovery.
Initial healing typically occurs within a few days, though full healing may take several weeks depending on the procedure. We will provide detailed aftercare instructions to help ensure a smooth and successful recovery.
Most oral surgery procedures are performed using local anesthesia, and sedation options are available if you feel anxious. We will discuss your comfort preferences ahead of time and recommend the best option for your needs.
