What Is Oral Surgery?
Oral surgery involves diagnosing and surgically treating conditions that affect the mouth, jaw, teeth, gums, and related facial structures. This may include procedures to correct injuries, remove impacted teeth, or prepare your mouth for dental implants.
Our Edmonton dental team provides treatment options that consider both the functional and aesthetic aspects of your smile.
Oral Surgery Services at Hudson Dental
We offer a range of oral surgery procedures to help maintain or restore your oral health, including:
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth, or third molars, often emerge during the late teens or early twenties. When there isn’t enough space for them to grow properly, they can become impacted or misaligned. Removing them helps prevent pain, infection, and crowding.
Surgical Tooth Extraction
Sometimes, a tooth cannot be removed with a simple extraction due to its position, condition, or damage. A surgical extraction allows your dentist to remove the tooth safely and reduce discomfort during recovery.
Extraction of Impacted Teeth
Impacted teeth are those that have not fully erupted through the gums. They can cause swelling, pain, and alignment issues. Surgical removal helps prevent these complications and supports better long-term oral health.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting is a procedure used to rebuild bone in areas where it has deteriorated, often in preparation for dental implants. This strengthens the jaw and helps ensure a stable foundation for tooth replacement.
Sinus Lift Surgery
When the upper jaw does not have enough bone for dental implants, a sinus lift may be recommended. This procedure raises the sinus floor and adds bone material to allow for successful implant placement.
Apicoectomy (Surgical Endodontic Treatment)
An apicoectomy involves removing the tip of a tooth’s root to treat persistent infection or inflammation that remains after a root canal. This helps preserve the natural tooth and prevent further infection.
