Maintain Your Dental Health With Oral Surgical Procedures

We know that your dental care is personal. Dr. Rawlings and her team understand your needs and unique oral health history. Visiting an outside oral surgeon can feel stressful. However, our ability to perform surgical procedures in our office can help you avoid seeing a specialist. Most patients can get their dental surgery done right here!

Whether you are dealing with a toothache or want dental implants, Dr. Rawlings will discuss the surgical treatments needed to repair your oral function. No matter which procedure you receive, she can use platelet-rich fibrin (PRF). This material, which is made from your own blood cells, encourages the healing process. This means a shorter recovery time for you!

At our office you can get:

  • Tooth Extractions – We try to save your tooth whenever possible. However, if your tooth is severely damaged or decayed, we’ll do an extraction to protect your oral health. Extractions are also done to make room for implants or dentures.
  • Ridge Augmentation – We’ll restore the contour of your jaw with a ridge augmentation. It may be necessary if you have had missing teeth for a lengthy period. You’ll look younger and healthier after this treatment.
  • Sinus Lifts –A sinus lift prepares your upper jaw for implants. We’ll raise the sinus ridge and add bone material, so your upper jaw can support implants.
  • Bone Grafts – A bone grafting procedure adds new bone material to your jaw. It will strengthen your jaw and make you a better candidate for implants.
  • Gum Grafts – A gum grafting procedure restores your gumline using your own tissue. You’ll have healthy and natural-looking gums again.

In addition to using a local anesthetic to numb your mouth, we have sedation available. Choose from laughing gas or oral sedation.

Common Questions About Oral Surgery

When would I need oral surgery?

There are several circumstances that might require oral surgery. If you or your loved one has a badly damaged or diseased tooth, it may need removal. Other procedures like bone grafts and sinus lifts prepare for treatments such as dental implants. Gum grafts will repair receded gums and help them heal properly.

When is oral surgery covered by insurance?

Your dental insurance or medical insurance may cover a portion of your oral surgery. We recommend you check with your individual carriers to find out what they will and won’t pay for before you have any work done. That way there aren’t any big surprises in store for you. As a convenience, we offer third-party financing through CareCredit.

When can I exercise after oral surgery?

For the first 24 hours after your oral surgery, you should not exercise at all. Doing too much too fast can actually create problems and prolong healing. Overexertion can loosen the blood clot from an extraction site and cause a painful condition known as a dry socket. After the first 24 hours, limit your exercise to low-impact activities for several more days.
