For some oral health issues, surgery may be required to properly treat the problem. We know that any type of surgery can be a little stressful, no matter how minor it is. That’s why Smile Dental & Co. makes patient comfort one of our top priorities.
Types of Oral Surgery
Smile Dental & Co. offers multiple types of oral surgeries. If what you’re looking for isn’t here, please contact us. We may be able to provide treatment.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are used to replace one or multiple missing teeth. They are typically made of titanium and are fused with your jawbone to create a sturdy artificial root. The implant will act as a foundation for a dental crown – the functional part of your restoration.
Root Canals
Root canals are very similar to dental fillings. If you have an infection, we will need to drill into the tooth to remove the pulp, which contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissues. After removal, we clean the area, fill the hole, and cover the tooth with a dental implant.
Tooth Extractions
Our goal will always be to save your teeth, but sometimes an extraction may be necessary. After a tooth is removed, we highly recommend getting a restoration, such as a dental implant or bridge.
