Minor Oral Surgery    

Dentists can do a large number of surgical interventions in the mouth.  The term "Minor Oral Surgery" refers to smaller operations and include removing wisdom teeth, impacted teeth, and severely broken-down teeth.

 Minor Oral Surgery is also implemented to save teeth. Occasionally, a nonsurgical root canal procedure alone cannot save your tooth and your dentist will recommend surgery. Some patients might need endodontic surgery known as an apicoectomy.

Biopsies are oral surgery which involve the removal of tissue for microscopic examination. A biopsy is the only definitive way to determine whether a lesion (irregularly or non-healing ulcer) you have is oral cancer.

Procedures are usually carried out using routine local anesthetic although sometimes medicinal sedation can be recommended if necessary.

Our office does not provide minor oral surgery treatment under general anesthetic. Patients requiring this form of treatment must be referred to an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Group.
