Oral Surgery
Oral surgery is a dental specialty that focuses on the correction of dental health problems through surgical means.
Oral Surgery Types
These are the most common types of oral surgery that we perform at Lake Belton Family Dental and Dentures are:
- Dental implants
- Tooth extraction
- Jaw surgery
If Dr. Stephens feels you need oral surgery, he will discuss it with you during your appointment. You have the opportunity to meet with him prior to your surgery so you know exactly what to expect.
Wisdom Tooth Extractions
Wisdom teeth begin to erupt in most people roughly around the age of twenty. Very often, these superfluous molars emerge at an incorrect angle, causing alignment issues, pain, and even disease. The best course of action is simply to have them removed. The removal process is typically very easy and can be done in a number of ways. Depending on the tooth's stage of development and angle of emergence, Dr. Stephens may either remove the tooth in pieces or as a whole. The surgery is finished very quickly and requires little downtime afterward.
