Tooth Extractions – This type of minor oral surgery is done for teeth that have been damaged beyond repair, that no other dental treatment can save it (or improve its condition). A surgical tooth extraction can also be done in cases when the removal of a tooth (or several teeth) is needed as a preparation for an orthodontic treatment, so that the teeth can properly move into their desired position without overcrowding issues.

Dental Implant Treatment – Dental implants are surgically embedded into the jaw bone to replace the form and function of missing natural teeth. Using a dental drill, the dentist will make a hole through the gums and the jaw bone; the resulting hole is where the implant will be embedded to form a secure base where the dental restoration will be attached to.

Wisdom Teeth Removal – A wisdom tooth extraction is needed to remove a tooth that has not fully grown out from under the gum line, or is impacted. Problems with an impacted wisdom tooth include a great deal of pain, difficulties in cleaning the affected tooth, and improper tooth eruption especially when the tooth moves sideways and against surrounding teeth. The surgical procedure will involve making an incision on the gums, to gain access to the impacted tooth.
