Oral surgery could be necessary to address missing teeth, prevent wisdom tooth impaction, and rebuild smiles weakened by tooth loss. But how do we ensure this process is comfortable and positive? In today’s blog, your team at Riverside Dental Group talks about the steps we take to ensure a comfortable oral surgery.
Common Examples
When do you need oral surgery? If you have wisdom teeth soon to erupt, we could spare you painful impactions and misalignment. If you have teeth that could spread infection, again we could save your smile by removing the tooth in question. While we can remove teeth, we can replace them too! Treatment options include dental implant placement, which secures durable and lifelike replacement teeth, whether you have lost one tooth or needed a full set of fixed dentures. We can help strengthen the jaw with a grafting procedure as well, and even take one infection with a root canal or other endodontic treatment. But how do we ensure a comfortable oral surgery experience for our patients?
Local Anesthesia and Sedation
To ensure your oral surgery is comfortable, we will numb the area being treated directly with a local anesthesia. This is administered directly to the area, and helps numb it for hours or come, so you stay comfortable. But we also have sedation. This not only calms people undergoing extensive treatment, but sedation can help those with major anxiety or special needs enjoy a positive experience in the office, which otherwise may not be possible. Our team can choose from different options, such as nitrous oxide, oral conscious sedation, and IV sedation, to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable treatment experience.
Advanced Technology
We also help with advanced technology! With digital x-rays and intraoral cameras, we can take pictures of your smile quickly and comfortably, without the need for bitewings and lengthy waiting periods. We then plan treatment with precision. To create custom oral appliances and restoration, we don’t need to make you undergo the physical impression process, no need to bite down on a metal mold filled with gooey material. Instead, we take a digital approach for better comfort and convenience!
