Why do people opt for Oral Surgery?
Your health
Dental care
Gum disease
Tooth decay is widespread and can quickly be addressed if you keep up with regular visits to the dentist. However, left unchecked, it can cause discomfort or spread, possibly leading to tooth extraction. Sometimes, a root canal may be available; however, immediate treatment is essential. Oral surgery could also be necessary if you suffer from gum disease, such as gum recession which might call for a surgical gum graft.
We also perform oral surgery to remove wisdom teeth. While they do not always pose a health risk, they can grow impacted and cause discomfort. On the other hand, they can prevent future infections and other teeth from pushing forward if removed.
Some of our patients undergo oral surgery for cosmetic reasons. For example, dental implants are used to replace missing teeth. A new root system is developed during this process, and once the tooth is attached, the new tooth will be as secure as a natural tooth once it has been linked. Contact our dental office at (707) 709-6058 to learn more about this process.
