What Is Oral Surgery?
Oral surgery refers to a range of surgical procedures we perform on the teeth, gums, jaw, or surrounding oral and facial structures. At Premier Craft Dental Care, we offer a range of oral surgery options right here at our Arlington practice, including the following:
- Tooth Extractions: Tooth extractions involve the removal of severely damaged, decayed, or crowded teeth after exhausting all restorative options. Extractions can help alleviate pain, prevent further complications, and prepare the mouth for other treatments such as orthodontics or implants.
- Socket Preservation: Socket preservation is performed after tooth extraction to preserve the quality and density of the bone in the area. It involves placing a grafting material in the extracted tooth's socket, which helps prepare the area for future dental restorations, such as implants, bridges, or partial dentures.
- Bone Grafts: Bone grafts help reinforce the jawbone to support dental implants when bone loss has occurred in the area or the natural bone is deficient. The procedure involves transplanting bone tissue to the jaw, which helps encourage regeneration and provides a stable foundation for implant placement, enhancing the health and function of your smile.
- Wisdom Teeth Removal: The wisdom teeth, or third molars, are notorious for causing problems, including crowding, impaction, pain, or infection. Extracting problematic wisdom teeth can greatly alleviate pain and discomfort and prevent potential complications and the misalignment of the remaining teeth.
- Periodontal Surgery: Periodontal surgery encompasses various procedures designed to treat periodontal disease and its effects on the gums and bone supporting the teeth. These may include reshaping the gums, removing infected tissue, and reducing periodontal pockets. The goal is to restore and maintain the health of gums, supporting tissues, and bones, as well as improve the overall stability of the teeth.
Local Anesthesia for Pain-Free Treatments
Local anesthesia offers a safe and effective way to manage pain during dental treatment. We gently inject the anesthetic solution into the gums to numb the treatment area. We offer two types of local anesthetic procedures: Infiltration and block anesthetics.
- Infiltration: We deposit the anesthetic solution adjacent to the affected teeth or treatment area.
- Block Anesthetic: Here, we deposit the anesthetic solution adjacent to the nerve that supplies the entire region where the affected teeth and treatment area are located.
