To enhance the beauty of your smile
Oral surgery includes a number of surgical dental treatments. The goal of oral surgery is to improve the function, health and appearance of your smile and the surrounding structures, such as your jaw. In many cases, we strive to provide the most conservative treatment possible.
While we provide many oral surgery treatments at our office, we also work closely with other dental professionals and hospitals to ensure that you receive the high-quality results you deserve. Our dentist will carefully evaluate your smile and your needs to determine whether oral surgery is the best available treatment choice for you.
Our team is committed to ensuring that your oral surgery is as comfortable as possible. Please feel free to contact us today to learn more about oral surgery and schedule your individual consultation!
Why you need Oral Surgery
However, oral surgery may be necessary to correct certain conditions and improve your oral and overall health. Oral surgery may include:
- Tooth extraction (for teeth that are decayed, damaged or infected to the point that an effective restoration is impossible)
- Wisdom teeth removal (for wisdom teeth that are impacted or have grown in at an incorrect angle)
- Jaw surgery (to treat a TMJ disorder, correct uneven jaw growth or improve the fit of dentures)
- Bone grafts (to increase bone density or improve the chances for a successful dental implant)
Bone Grafting
- At Smile Creations of Raleigh, Dr. Chitra Hardikar provides bone grafting to restore jawbone density for dental implant candidacy. Whether due to gum disease or tooth loss, this procedure ensures a strong foundation for implants.
