What Is Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery?
Oral and maxillofacial surgery is a specialized area of dentistry focused on diagnosing and surgically treating conditions affecting the teeth, jaws, gums, and facial structures. These procedures are often required when traditional dental treatments are not sufficient.
Surgical care may be recommended to address infections, impacted teeth, jaw concerns, bone loss, or to prepare the mouth for restorative treatments such as dental implants.
Our Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Services
Tooth Extractions
When a tooth is severely damaged, infected, or impacted, surgical extraction may be necessary. This includes routine extractions as well as more complex cases such as impacted or problematic teeth.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Impacted or misaligned wisdom teeth can cause pain, infection, and crowding. Surgical removal helps prevent future complications and protects surrounding teeth.
Dental Implant Surgery
Implant placement is a surgical procedure that involves inserting a titanium post into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. This creates a strong foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures.
Bone Grafting Procedures
Bone grafting restores areas of bone loss in the jaw, often necessary before implant placement. Grafting helps strengthen the jaw & supports long-term oral stability.
Sinus Lift
Sinus augmentation increases bone height in the upper jaw to allow for successful dental implant placement when natural bone is insufficient.
Treatment of Oral Infections
Surgical care may be required to manage advanced infections, abscesses, or damaged tissue that cannot be resolved through non-surgical methods.
Jaw-Related Surgical Procedures
Certain jaw conditions may require surgical intervention to improve bite alignment, reduce discomfort, or restore proper function.
Use of Regenerative Techniques
To support healing and improve outcomes, Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) may be incorporated into surgical procedures. PRF uses the body’s natural growth factors to promote faster recovery and tissue regeneration.
