Why do i need to see an Oral Surgeon

Treatments preformed by Oral Surgeons include but are not limited to;
  • Removal of impacted or badly broken down teeth
  • Placement of dental implants
  •  Biopsy of an oral lesion
  • Treatment of a dental cyst
  • Management of dental trauma
  • Exposure of buried teeth prior to orthodontic treatment
  • Bone grafting procedures
  • Treatment of the medically compromised patient.

While all dentists remove teeth, you may be referred to an Oral Surgeon if your dentist deems that specialist care may be required.
