Frequently Asked Questions
Is oral surgery painful?
Surgical procedures are performed under local anesthesia or sedation to ensure patient comfort. Post-operative discomfort is usually manageable with prescribed or over-the-counter medication.
How long is recovery after a tooth extraction?
Most patients recover within a few days, although complete healing of the extraction site may take 1 to 2 weeks depending on the complexity of the procedure.
Can I be sedated during my oral surgery?
Yes. We offer sedation options such as nitrous oxide and oral conscious sedation for eligible patients undergoing surgical treatment.
What is bone grafting used for?
Bone grafting is used to build up areas of the jawbone that have deteriorated due to tooth loss, trauma, or periodontal disease, especially in preparation for implants.
Do you perform emergency surgery for dental injuries?
Yes. We treat dental emergencies including knocked-out teeth, fractured jaws, and trauma resulting from accidents or sports injuries.
How do I know if I need an apicoectomy?
An apicoectomy may be necessary when a root canal fails to resolve an infection or when the tip of the tooth root remains affected despite prior treatment.
Are these procedures covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on your dental insurance plan and the medical necessity of the procedure. Our team can help verify your benefits and provide cost estimates in advance.
Is PRP safe and effective?
Yes. PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) uses your own blood to stimulate healing and reduce recovery time, and it’s commonly used in oral surgery with great success.
