Oral surgery includes dental procedures that may be needed when a tooth cannot be treated with routine restorative care or when a surgical approach is required. At Venn Dental, every surgical treatment begins with a detailed assessment to understand the condition of the tooth, surrounding tissues and your overall oral health.
Depending on your individual needs, treatment may include simple or surgical tooth extraction, wisdom tooth removal or selected minor oral surgical procedures. The recommended approach is explained before treatment so you understand what to expect.
Oral surgical treatment may be recommended to relieve pain, manage damaged or problematic teeth and address dental conditions that cannot be treated adequately with routine procedures.
The need for oral surgery depends on your dental condition, symptoms, X-ray findings and overall treatment plan.
A simple extraction may be recommended when a tooth is visible and can be removed without a more complex surgical approach.
A surgical extraction may be required when a tooth is broken, impacted or difficult to access using a routine extraction technique.
Wisdom teeth may require removal if they are causing pain, swelling, repeated infection, decay or other dental concerns.
Selected minor surgical procedures may be recommended depending on your dental condition and treatment needs.
Wisdom teeth do not always need to be removed, but an assessment may be recommended if they are causing symptoms or affecting surrounding teeth and gums.
Possible signs:
Small note:
These symptoms can have different causes, so a dental examination and appropriate imaging may be needed before treatment is recommended.
