Oral Surgical Procedures

Oral surgical procedures are medical treatments performed in a dental office or clinic to address issues related to the mouth, jaw, and teeth. Common procedures include tooth extractions (removing teeth), dental implants (artificial tooth roots), and jaw surgery (correcting jaw alignment). These surgeries are typically done under local or general anesthesia to ensure comfort. They aim to alleviate pain, correct defects, or improve oral function and appearance. Recovery varies based on the procedure, but patients usually receive aftercare instructions to support healing. Overall, oral surgery plays a vital role in maintaining oral health.
