Oral Surgery
Oral Surgery
Oral Surgery involves procedures such as dental extractions, the removal of impacted wisdom teeth, the placement of dental implants and biopsies of lesion within the mouth. This work is often performed following referral from your general dentist, specialist orthodontist or you can make a self-referral.
How we do it:
Procedures involving the mouth can often cause concern, but both Richard and Ryan are highly experienced in diagnosing and treating these issues and aim to deliver the highest levels of care.
They are thoroughly trained to deliver care under local anaesthesia with intravenous sedation (twilight anaesthesia) or general anaesthesia (complete anaesthesia) and work with the very best specialist anaesthetists to provide an excellent patient experience.
At your consultation appointment a detailed history and examination will be performed. Any necessary tests will be organised to give you a thorough and considered opinion. You will then be given a treatment plan with all of your options, and time to consider these in order to make an informed decision about how you would like to proceed.
About the Procedure:
Most oral surgical procedures will be performed under local anaesthesia with intravenous sedation in one of our specialist oral surgery clinic rooms.
General anaesthesia is available for more complex procedures, or for those who are particularly anxious.
You will be given post-operative instructions on how to care for your mouth as it heals following a procedure and contact information for help and advice should you need it.
