Avoid Long-Term Smile Issues

Expert Team

Our team works hard to provide each patient with a great dental experience, which includes any dental surgery procedure. We have honed our skills, so you can get your surgical procedure by a team you know. It’s our goal that you won’t have to travel to an outside oral surgeon. At our practice, we’ll fully explain your dental care in detail. You’ll know what we’re doing and what to expect.

Gentle Tooth Removals

We’ll always try to save your tooth whenever possible. However, if a diseased or damaged tooth is unrepairable or may cause problems with other teeth, it should be removed. Protecting your long-term oral health is more important. We’ll remove the tooth as quickly and comfortably as possible.

In addition, we can perform wisdom teeth removal. These third molars usually begin to appear between the ages of 17 and 25. Some patients have no issues with wisdom teeth. For others, these teeth erupt in the wrong position or at the wrong angle and crowd your other teeth. In those cases, removal becomes necessary.

Restore Bone Health

You may need a bone grafting procedure after we remove one or more teeth. Your dentist can perform a bone graft to rebuild the jaw ridge where the tooth was. Your dentist will place bone material in your jaw to stimulate the growth of new bone material. In a few months, your jaw in that area will be stronger and ready for tooth replacement.

We’ll Keep You Comfortable While We Treat Your Smile

At Charlotte Dentistry, we completely understand how nervous some patients become when thinking about dental surgery. That’s why our dedicated team goes the extra mile to ensure your comfort. Our patient care areas feature TVs to take your mind off dental care. We also have warm blankets that will help you feel right at home.

If you’re especially nervous about your surgical procedure, you might benefit from our dental sedation options. We offer you a choice of sedation methods, depending on your level of anxiety:

Inhaled Sedation With Laughing Gas – For milder dental anxiety, we’ll administer this safe, mild gas using a comfortable mask over your nose. Moments after breathing it in, you’ll begin to feel a lightness all over, and you may even experience a tingling sensation in your arms or legs. You’ll have no lingering grogginess.
Oral Conscious Sedation With a Pill – If your anxiety is more intense, oral sedation will likely work better for you. Your dentist will prescribe an FDA-approved pill for you to take before your surgery. It will relax you completely from head to toe. You will feel groggy for several hours after your surgery.

If you need oral surgery in Charlotte, call Charlotte Dentistry today at 704-285-0846 to schedule your consultation. Our office is the place to have it done! You can also schedule online.

Common Questions About Oral Surgery

What is oral surgery?

Oral surgery refers to any surgical procedure involving the jaw or mouth. In some cases, you would need to schedule oral surgery with an outside specialist, but at Charlotte Dentistry, we can perform several procedures right here in our office. You can rely on us for tooth extractions, wisdom teeth removal, and bone grafting procedures.

Is oral surgery painful?

Because your comfort is a top priority to us, we do everything we can to provide pain-free experiences no matter the treatment you receive. Oral surgeries are no different. Before your dental surgery, we will make sure your mouth is numb so you don’t feel any pain during your procedure. We can also offer dental sedation to help calm your nerves for a more pleasant, relaxing experience.

How is bone grafting beneficial?

At Charlotte Dentistry, we perform bone grafts for patients who need a way to preserve their jawbone after a tooth extraction. This is often done to ensure the extraction site remains strong and healthy enough to support dental implants when it’s time to replace the missing tooth. Your dentist will graft bone material in that area to stimulate healthy new growth as you heal.

When would I need oral surgery?

Some of the most common reasons you may need oral surgery are removing a tooth that is too damaged to save, extracting wisdom teeth that are painful or causing dental problems, removing teeth for dentures or other restorations, or preparing for dental implants with a bone graft or other procedure.
