WHAT IS ORAL SURGERY?

Oral surgery can correct jaw, facial bone, and soft tissue issues that develop for various reasons.

Oral surgery is any procedure specifically for your teeth, gums, or jaws.

There are many types of oral surgery procedures that your Frisco dentist can offer to assist you with concerns you have.

When you make your appointment, we perform a comprehensive evaluation to check your teeth, gums, jaw joints, and surrounding structures. Our team will also take dental X-rays and scans to get a clear view of your teeth, roots, jawbone, nerves, and other critical oral landmarks. Using this information, we tailor a personalized treatment plan.

Top 5 Reasons Patients Need Oral Surgery

A dental bone graft is necessary when bone loss has occurred in your jaw. There are a couple of reasons why this may occur. When your natural teeth are present, the roots stimulate the nerves in your jaw. This signals your brain to send nutrients to your jaw, keeping it strong and healthy. If a tooth has been missing for some time, bone deterioration can occur in that area because there are no roots to stimulate the nerves. A dental bone graft restores volume and density in your jawbone so dental implants can be placed later.

Sometimes, your provider might place a bone graft during periodontal surgery. Advanced gum disease can cause the bone around your teeth to erode. A bone graft reduces mobility and provides a solid foundation, keeping your teeth strong and healthy.

Dental implants replace the root of a missing tooth. A dental implant can replace one tooth or multiple teeth. A crown is placed onto a metal post, giving you the look of a natural tooth.

Dental implants are an excellent alternative for natural teeth replacement. Solid and stable, they can restore a lost tooth and look, feel, fit and function like a natural tooth.

Did you know the jawbone begins immediately reshaping and re-contouring when performing a tooth extraction? Because of this, we want to use the socket preservation technique to counteract this natural occurrence.

Socket preservation is a type of bone grafting procedure designed to protect the alveolar ridge and empty tooth socket from decaying – simultaneously creating a more robust support system for the dental implant. In addition to preserving the tooth socket from inevitable bone erosion, socket preservation can also correct or amend any deformity in the alveolar ridge or socket.

The most common type of oral surgery is tooth extraction (tooth removal). Our team might recommend an extraction if you have severe tooth decay, gum disease (periodontitis), dental trauma, or wisdom teeth complications.

Sometimes tooth extractions are performed to prepare you for dentures or other prosthetic devices.

Wisdom teeth, also called third molars, are the last teeth to develop and appear in the mouth around the age of 17. People can have between one and four, more than four, or none. In general, wisdom teeth removal procedures are quick and easy. If you undergo IV sedation for this procedure, you will need a responsible adult to drive you home after the surgery.

Wisdom teeth rarely develop without causing problems. Third molars can lead to severe and costly issues in the future that jeopardize oral health. It is considered impacted when a wisdom tooth grows sideways and cannot break through the gums. We need to remove impacted wisdom teeth because they will not properly erupt into the dental arch on their own.

Leaving wisdom teeth untreated can cause:

  • Pain
  • Swelling
  • Infections
  • Tumors
  • Cysts
  • Impaction
  • Misalignment of other teeth
  • Gum disease and tooth decay
