Understanding the Importance of Oral Surgery

Oral surgery is a highly specialized field of dentistry that addresses intricate dental problems related to the teeth, jaw, and surrounding tissues. It is essential for addressing a variety of issues, such as Tooth Extractions, or Gum Surgery, and can also involve treating jawbone fractures. Oral surgery has the ability to improve your oral health and enhance your overall well-being by relieving pain and discomfort caused by serious dental issues.

At Meyer Family Dental, our highly experienced and well-trained oral surgeons are dedicated to delivering safe and effective surgeries, including Tooth Extraction Surgery.

  • Wisdom teeth extraction: Numerous individuals opt for the removal of their wisdom teeth to proactively address potential complications, including crowding, infections, and cysts. Wisdom Teeth Surgery is one of the most common forms of Oral Surgery we perform.
  • Replace missing teeth with dental implants, using titanium posts that securely anchor a replacement tooth to the jawbone.
