Oral Surgery

The prospect of oral surgery shouldn’t leave you feeling uncertain or anxious. At ID Dental Implant Center, we’ve helped thousands of patients achieve better oral health through precise surgical care that puts your comfort first.

We take the time to understand your specific concerns and develop surgical solutions that align with your individual needs, ensuring you feel confident and well-cared for throughout your treatment journey.

Understanding Oral Surgery

Oral surgery is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on diagnosing and treating complex conditions affecting the mouth, teeth, jaws, and facial structures. These surgical procedures go beyond routine dental care and require specific expertise to address issues that can’t be resolved through standard dental treatments.

From removing problematic wisdom teeth to reconstructing damaged jaw bones, oral surgery provides targeted solutions for patients who need advanced interventional care.

Benefits of Oral Surgery

Pain Relief and Improved Comfort

Oral surgery effectively addresses chronic dental pain and discomfort that may be affecting your daily life. By targeting the root cause of your dental issues, surgical intervention can provide immediate relief from persistent pain and prevent future complications. Our surgical procedures are designed to eliminate infection sources and repair damaged oral structures, helping you return to a pain-free lifestyle.

Prevention of Bone Loss

Timely oral surgery helps maintain facial bone structure and prevent deterioration. Procedures like dental implants actively stimulate jaw bone growth, while corrective surgeries can stop progressive bone loss. This preservation of bone density helps maintain facial structure and prevents the premature aging appearance that can occur with bone deterioration.

Improved Speech Clarity

Oral surgery can dramatically enhance your ability to communicate clearly. By correcting structural abnormalities in the mouth and jaw, surgical procedures can resolve speech impediments and pronunciation difficulties. These improvements in speech mechanics often boost social confidence and professional communication abilities.

Relief from TMJ Disorders

Surgical intervention can provide lasting relief from temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders that cause chronic jaw pain and headaches. By correcting jaw misalignment and treating damaged joint tissues, oral surgery helps restore normal jaw function. Patients often experience reduced muscle tension, fewer headaches, and improved jaw mobility.

Protection of Healthy Teeth

Timely oral surgery can protect your remaining healthy teeth from unnecessary strain and damage. By removing problematic wisdom teeth or severely damaged teeth, we prevent overcrowding, misalignment, and infection risks. This proactive approach helps maintain the integrity of your natural teeth and supports long-term oral health.

FAQs About Oral Surgery

What to eat after oral surgery with stitches?

Start with cool, liquid foods like smoothies, broths, and protein shakes for the first 24 hours after surgery. Progress to soft foods such as mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, and yogurt on day two. Avoid seeds, nuts, crunchy snacks, and chewy foods until your surgical site has properly healed and your surgeon gives you clearance to resume your normal diet.

How long after oral surgery can you use a straw?

Wait at least 7 days after your oral surgery before using any straws. The suction force can dislodge the protective blood clot from your surgical site, leading to a painful condition called dry socket. This waiting period is especially crucial after tooth extractions or implant procedures to ensure proper healing.

How long after oral surgery can you eat?

You can start consuming cool, liquid foods about 2-3 hours after your surgery once the anesthetic effects wear off. Stick to soft, room-temperature foods for the first few days. Most patients return to their regular eating habits within 7-10 days, depending on their procedure and healing progress.

How long does oral surgery take?

Most single-procedure oral surgeries take between 30-90 minutes to complete. Complex cases involving multiple extractions or full-mouth reconstructions may require 2-3 hours. Your surgical time will depend on the complexity of your case, type of anesthesia used, and specific procedures being performed.

Can you eat before oral surgery?

Follow our strict pre-surgery eating guidelines based on your chosen anesthesia type. For local anesthesia, avoid eating 2 hours before your appointment. If you’re scheduled for IV sedation or general anesthesia, stop eating and drinking (including water) 8 hours before your procedure to ensure your safety during surgery.
