Reasoning for Oral Surgery

Any procedure done on your teeth, gums, jaw, or nearby oral and face structures is called oral surgery. Teeth extractions, dental bone grafts, periodontal (gum) grafts, and corrective jaw surgery are a few of the many operations under it.

The type of oral facial surgery, the number of teeth being treated, and whether you opt for sedation affect how long your treatment lasts. Extraction of one tooth can typically take 30 minutes, whereas a more complicated procedure, such as corrective jaw surgery, usually takes much longer. 

 

Clients could need oral surgery for several reasons and it may be recommend if there is the following:

• Extensive tooth decay.

• Badly broken teeth.

• Gum disease.

• Impacted teeth.

• Missing teeth.

• Temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD).

• Bone loss in your jaw.

• Sleep apnea.

• Oral cancer.

• Benign oral pathology (noncancerous lumps or bumps).

​

Most Common Types of Oral Surgery

To get ready for dentures or other prosthetic devices, it may be necessary to extract some of your teeth. Tooth extraction is the most common type of oral Surgery in Seattle. It is also known as tooth removal. An extraction may be advised if you have serious tooth decay, gum disease (periodontitis), dental trauma, or issues with your wisdom teeth.

 

Most dentists try to keep your natural teeth, when possible, but occasionally extractions are necessary to protect your oral health. The removal of wisdom teeth is also frequently

advised by dentists as a preventative strategy to lower your risk of developing cavities, losing bone density, and experiencing other issues.
