Which oral surgery procedures do you offer?
We handle tooth extractions (including wisdom teeth), dental implant placement, bone grafting, and apicoectomy, among others. If you need a specialized procedure, we’ll guide you through every step or coordinate with trusted specialists.
How long does recovery take after oral surgery?
Recovery varies by procedure and personal health. Some patients recover within a few days, while others may take a couple of weeks. We provide detailed aftercare instructions, including diet recommendations and pain management tips.
Will I be awake during my oral surgery?
Depending on the procedure, we offer sedation options like nitrous oxide and conscious sedation to keep you calm and comfortable. We’ll discuss the best sedation level for you beforehand to ensure a relaxed experience.
How can I prepare for oral surgery?
Follow our pre-op guidelines, which often include fasting before sedation and arranging transportation if needed. We’ll give you a personalized checklist during your consultation to ensure a smooth procedure.
Can I eat normally after an oral surgery?
We recommend a soft-food or liquid diet for the first few days, gradually transitioning to your normal diet as you heal. Avoid hard or sticky foods that could disrupt the surgical site. We’ll provide detailed post-op instructions to help you recover faster.
How do I know if I need oral surgery or a simpler treatment?
A thorough exam and imaging will help us determine the best course of action. If a less invasive treatment can achieve the same results, we’ll recommend that first. Reach out to schedule an assessment at Duncan Dental Studio.
