Common Oral Surgeries
An oral surgeon’s main priority is to restore your mouth to its natural function. This includes restoring the damage done by facial trauma or gum disease, such as periodontitis or gingivitis. Common examples of oral surgeries include the following:
Tooth Extraction
When your mouth experiences the effects of gum disease, you may ultimately need a tooth extraction. When plaque goes unbrushed and undisturbed, it hardens into tartar and can begin to build up in the gum pockets, causing infection and inflammation. This can result in the erosion of your enamel and gums, resulting in wobbly, loose, or even rotted teeth.
Root canals, scalings, and other forms of surgical procedures can be performed to help clean up the area and remove any areas of infection, but occasionally, the tooth will need to be professionally extracted. An oral surgeon can do this for you to ensure the area heals properly and can one day be host to a dental implant.
Dental Implants
Dental implants, or any form of synthetic tooth replacement, are important to the function and health of your mouth. When a tooth is extracted, the open area can cause your other teeth to shift, causing crookedness and a misaligned bite. Additionally, the jawbone will begin to loosen and weaken, which can result in a sagging sinus.
Dental implants help cosmetically, but can also help take the place of your former natural tooth. Dental implants are not just a direct result of gum disease, but can be due to a facial trauma, congenital disease, or for aesthetic purposes.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Oral surgeons not only help remedy functional issues with your oral health, but can help with forms of cosmetic dentistry as well. This is not just limited to implant surgeries, as the surgeons can help with cleft palate, corrective jaw surgery, and anything else related to the soft tissue of the mouth, face, and jaws.
At Elizabeth Oral Surgery Group, our team of highly-qualified oral and maxillofacial surgeons is also able to offer aesthetic treatments unrelated to dentistry, such as Botox, micro needling, hair transplants, dermal fillers, and platelet-rich plasma treatments.
How an Oral Surgeon Can Help
Oral surgeons are one of the only dental professionals recognized by the American Dental Association. They will train alongside other dentists for four years and then partake in a hospital-based residency program, where they will study internal medicine, general surgery, plastic surgery, anesthesiology, emergency medicine, and other specialized areas focusing on the mouth, throat, and nose.
When you partner with a qualified oral surgeon from Elizabeth Oral Surgery Group, you are partnering with someone who will help perform an initial consultation and examination, after which they will devise a plan of action to help cure the underlying issues and correct any problems you have been having with looks, function, bite, or chew.
Our compassionate and knowledgeable surgeons are here to help you through every step of the way, answering any concerns or questions you may have throughout the process. Often, dental work is not a one-stop shop or quick fix. Having potentially months-worth of work can be stressful and our team is here to help alleviate that as much as we can for you.
