What Is Oral Surgery?

Oral surgery refers to a variety of surgical procedures performed to address issues in the mouth, jaw, and facial structures. Common procedures include wisdom teeth extraction, dental implants, jaw realignment, and treatment for facial injuries. Oral surgery is often recommended when non-surgical treatments are insufficient to resolve issues such as impacted teeth, severe tooth decay, or misaligned jaws. Performed by specialized oral and maxillofacial surgeons, these procedures not only alleviate pain and improve functionality but also help prevent further complications. With modern techniques and anesthesia options, oral surgery today is safer and more comfortable than ever before.

Do I Need Oral Surgery?

You may need oral surgery if you are dealing with persistent dental issues such as impacted wisdom teeth, missing teeth, or jaw misalignment that cannot be corrected with routine dental care. Oral surgery may also be necessary for conditions like severe tooth decay, infections, or facial trauma. During a consultation, our expert surgeons will evaluate your specific situation, discuss your symptoms and goals, and recommend the best course of action. Our priority is to ensure you receive the most effective treatment for your condition, with the least amount of discomfort and the best possible outcome.

How long is the recovery time after oral surgery?

Recovery time varies depending on the procedure. Most patients can return to normal activities within a few days, but full healing may take a few weeks. Following your surgeon’s post-operative instructions is crucial for a smooth recovery.

Will I experience pain during the procedure?

Thanks to advanced anesthesia and sedation options, you should not feel pain during oral surgery. Post-operative discomfort can typically be managed with prescribed medications, and our team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to minimize any discomfort.

What should I expect after oral surgery?

After oral surgery, you may experience some swelling and discomfort, which is normal. Following the post-operative care instructions, such as maintaining good oral hygiene and sticking to a soft food diet, will help ensure a smooth recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I prepare for oral surgery?

Before oral surgery, you may need to follow specific instructions such as fasting for several hours, arranging transportation, and avoiding certain medications. Our team will provide you with detailed pre-operative guidelines to ensure you’re fully prepared for the procedure.

What are the risks associated with oral surgery?

Oral surgery, like any surgical procedure, carries some risks, including infection, bleeding, or adverse reactions to anesthesia. However, these risks are minimized through careful planning and the use of advanced surgical techniques. Our surgeons take every precaution to ensure your safety and a successful outcome.

Will I need someone to drive me home after the surgery?

Yes, if your oral surgery involves anesthesia or sedation, you will need someone to drive you home. The effects of anesthesia can impair your ability to drive, so it’s important to arrange for transportation in advance.

How can I manage swelling after oral surgery?

Swelling is a common side effect after oral surgery. To manage it, apply ice packs to the affected area for 15-20 minutes at a time during the first 24 hours. Additionally, keep your head elevated and follow any additional aftercare instructions provided by your surgeon.
