What is oral surgery?

This specialised dental care involves surgical procedures to address conditions affecting the mouth, jaws, and surrounding facial bone structure. Treatments include tooth extractions, wisdom tooth surgery, sinus lifts, cyst and oral tumour removals, as well as dental implant placements and bone grafting, helping you return to your everyday life with comfort and confidence.

Tooth Extraction

Removal of teeth that cannot be restored, such as those with severe decay or advanced mobility, as well as extractions required for specific treatment plans, including orthodontic preparation.

Tooth extraction is always considered a last resort by our dentists. If a natural tooth can be preserved through other treatments, extraction will not be recommended, as it results in permanent tooth loss. Following an extraction, adjacent teeth can drift into the empty space, and bone loss may occur in the jaw. It is therefore essential to replace missing teeth using dentures, a bridge, or dental implants. The extraction procedure takes approximately 30 minutes. Around one week after the procedure, any sutures will be removed. Your dentist will then discuss and plan the most suitable restorative treatment to replace the extracted tooth.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction

Treatment for partially erupted or impacted wisdom teeth to reduce the risk of inflammation, shifting teeth, and potential complications.

A wisdom tooth is the rearmost molar, being the final set of teeth to emerge. These teeth serve no function in chewing. Situated at the very back of the mouth, they are difficult to clean and particularly prone to decay. In most cases, wisdom teeth do not erupt fully. If there is insufficient room in the jaw, they will push against adjacent molars, causing discomfort and pain, which leads to tooth impaction. Impacted wisdom teeth should not be left untreated, as they can cause oral infections, gum inflammation, abscesses, or tooth decay in neighbouring teeth. The most effective treatment is surgical extraction, which typically takes between 30 and 50 minutes depending on the complexity of the case. Stitches are then removed approximately one week following the procedure.

Bone Resection

This procedure involves the surgical removal of benign bony growths (tori or exostoses) from the palate or the gum ridge. While generally harmless, they can interfere with oral function or aesthetic appearance.

Bone excision, or ostectomy, is a minor surgical procedure performed to remove bony outgrowths known as tori or exostoses. These present as firm, raised nodules typically found along the midline of the hard palate or on the lingual side of the mandibular gums. They develop from a slow thickening and benign overgrowth of the cortical bone surface. While entirely harmless, they can cause cosmetic concerns or functional discomfort. Treatment involves a straightforward, minor operation that takes only 30 to 50 minutes, with suture removal usually scheduled about one week later.
