We diagnose and surgically treat conditions affecting the mouth, teeth, jaws, and face. These treatments include both simple cases from tooth extractions to complex reconstructive surgery.
Common oral surgery procedures include:
- 1. Tooth extractions: Involving removal of teeth that are damaged, infected, or impacted (stuck in the gums).
- 2. Dental implants: Placement of implants to replace missing teeth and restore function and aesthetics.
- 3. Jaw surgery: Corrective surgery to realign the jaw, correct a bite problem, or treat temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.
- 4. Biopsy: Oral surgeons can perform a biopsy to diagnose and treat oral cancer and other abnormal growths or lesions in the mouth.
- 5. Facial trauma: Treatment of facial injuries resulting from accidents, falls, or sports-related injuries.
