oral surgery

One area of speciality within dentistry is known as oral surgery. This requires additional training in techniques for procedures such as the extraction of teeth or wisdom teeth.

If you have advanced tooth decay or an impacted wisdom tooth, you may require oral surgery to have them safely extracted. Depending on your particular case and the severity of your problem, you will be given anaesthetic and offered sedation if you need to help relieve any anxiety.

It is important to always get the advice of a dental professional if you are worried about any of your teeth. Never attempt to pull out your own tooth out at home as this could cause a more serious problem for you. We have the right equipment and sterile environment in which to perform this type of procedure with the utmost care.

In the case of wisdom teeth extractions, you may have some swelling after the procedure and discomfort that can be eased with over the counter painkillers.

Whatever type of oral surgery you require, the right procedure can increase your confidence as it helps you to look, feel and eat better.
