What we do.
How.
Our oral surgeries are meticulously planned and executed to ensure the best outcomes. The process starts with an initial consultation, where your medical history and specific needs are reviewed. Advanced imaging techniques like X-rays or 3D scans help in precise surgical planning.
On the day of surgery, anesthesia is administered for your comfort. The surgeon makes a small incision in the gum tissue to expose the tooth and surrounding bone. The tooth is then carefully extracted, sometimes in sections for easier removal. The area is cleaned, and the incision is closed with stitches.
Postoperative care includes detailed instructions on managing pain, swelling, and proper healing. Follow-up appointments ensure you are recovering well and provide any additional care needed. Our thorough approach ensures a safe and effective oral surgery experience.
Why.
Oral surgery is essential for addressing complex dental issues that cannot be resolved with general dental care. Here are some key reasons why oral surgery might be necessary:
- Wisdom Teeth Removal: Impacted or misaligned wisdom teeth can cause pain, infection, and damage to adjacent teeth. Removing them prevents these complications.
- Corrective Jaw Surgery: Misaligned jaws can impair chewing, speaking, and breathing. Corrective surgery improves function and facial appearance.
- Treating Oral Diseases: Conditions like cysts, tumors, and severe infections require surgical intervention for thorough treatment and prevention of further health issues.
- Alleviating Chronic Pain: Issues such as TMJ disorders and severe gum disease may need surgical solutions to relieve pain and improve quality of life.
At Oral Surgery + of Lake Charles and Wisdom Teeth of Louisiana, our specialized expertise and advanced techniques ensure effective, safe, and comfortable oral surgery care.
