Dental Implants
Many patients who are missing one tooth or multiple teeth prefer the look, feel, and function of dental implants over other tooth replacement options. Patients love being able to regain the ability to eat the foods they love, speak clearly, and smile with confidence again. The implant post fuses to the jaw bone to create a permanent and durable replacement tooth.
Traditional dentures and bridges only sit on top of the bony ridge in your mouth. They restore your smile cosmetically, but not always functionally. These options put you at risk of jaw bone atrophy due to a lack of stimulation that tooth roots and implant posts provide. By choosing to replace missing or failing teeth with dental implants, you protect your dental alignment and oral health for years to come.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Most dental health professionals recommend wisdom teeth removal to prevent the unnecessary complications that are common with third molars. While the most common time to get wisdom teeth removed is in the early-mid teen years, they may be removed earlier or later. Some people never develop any wisdom teeth, and your general dentist will look for third molars during checkups. Once detected, you will be referred to an oral surgeon to have them removed.
Wisdom teeth have large, unpredictable roots that can grow at an angle, damaging other teeth. Many patients report pain and swelling in the back of the mouth, an unpleasant taste, and red or bleeding gums. These symptoms all indicate that it's time to have wisdom teeth extracted. By doing so, you protect your other teeth from damage and prevent future health complications from arising.
Why Choose an Oral Surgeon?
Oral surgeons are different from regular dentists. Oral surgeons can detect and treat issues in both the bones and soft tissues of the mouth, jaws, head, and neck. They complete many additional years of training after dental school, which includes learning how to safely administer all forms of anesthesia and sedation. This is called an oral and maxillofacial surgery residency program and involves hands-on surgical training in a hospital setting. When a patient requires more complex surgery, sedation, or diagnosing, dentists refer them to oral surgeons like the ones at Whitewater Oral Surgery Group. Our expert oral and maxillofacial surgeons can perform many complex surgical procedures, including full-arch restoration with dental implant, wisdom tooth removal, orthognathic surgery, bone grafting, facial trauma, oral pathology treatment, and much more.
