An extraction is a removal of a natural tooth due to disease, trauma or crowding. It is a simple procedure and done under local anesthesia. We try our best to save your natural tooth but some times it is beyond any repair. Most of the extractions are done by a general dentist but some are complicated and are done by our Oral Surgeon.
Wisdom teeth are the third or last molars on each side of the upper and lower arches. They are the final teeth to erupt and usually come in when a person is in their late teens or early twenties. In our office, extraction of these teeth when needed is done by our Oral Surgeon. For your convenience, weekend appointments are available. Although we accept walk ins, but we encourage you to make an appointment to save your time.
Some of the lesions in Oral cavity need further evaluation. Oral surgeon provides you the consultation after taking medical history, history of the condition and local examination. The surgeon will take a small piece of tissue for microscopic examination by pathologist. Definitive treatment options are discussed and planned after the report from pathologist. The procedure itself is small, simple and done in our office under local anesthesia.
