During oral surgery, you will be given local anesthesia, and sedation options are available to ensure you
remain comfortable throughout the procedure. While some discomfort is normal after surgery, we
provide pain management solutions and aftercare instructions to minimize discomfort during recovery.
The recovery time for oral surgery varies depending on the type of procedure and your individual
healing process. Simple extractions typically heal within a few days, while more complex surgeries like
dental implants or bone grafting may take several weeks. We will provide detailed aftercare instructions
and monitor your recovery.
Following oral surgery, you may need to stick to a soft food diet for a few days to allow the area to heal.
Gradually, you will be able to resume your normal eating habits as the healing process progresses. We’ll
provide specific dietary guidelines based on the type of surgery you undergo.
If you are undergoing a procedure with sedation, it’s recommended to have someone accompany you to
your appointment and drive you home afterward. Sedation can impair your coordination and reflexes,
so it’s essential to arrange transportation for your safety.
Before your surgery, we’ll provide you with a detailed pre-operative guide, which may include
instructions on fasting (if necessary) and avoiding certain medications. It’s important to follow these
instructions closely to ensure a smooth and safe procedure.
Many oral surgery procedures, particularly those related to health conditions like tooth extractions or
gum disease, may be partially covered by insurance. However, coverage varies depending on your plan.
Our team will help you navigate your insurance benefits and discuss payment options.
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks associated with oral surgery, such as infection or
prolonged healing time. However, these risks are minimized with proper care and by following post-
operative instructions. Our team will explain any potential risks before your procedure and take
precautions to ensure your safety.
