Oral Surgery in Oviedo

What is Oral Surgery?

Oral surgery is a specialized area of dentistry that addresses conditions affecting the mouth, jaws, and related structures. While oral and maxillofacial surgeons often perform these procedures, skilled general dentists, like Dr. Leidy Riano Galeano at our practice in Oviedo, also provide many oral surgery treatments. These include tooth extractions, dental implant placement, and procedures for improving jaw functionality. By offering these services in-house, we ensure your care remains comfortable, convenient, and personalized.

The Oral Surgery Treatment Process

_

Initial Consultation

Your oral surgery journey begins with a detailed consultation. During this visit, your dentist will evaluate your oral health through a thorough examination, which may include X-rays or other imaging. They will review your medical history, discuss any symptoms, and help you understand your treatment options. This collaborative process ensures a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and goals.

Pre-Surgical Preparations

Once your treatment plan is finalized, you’ll receive instructions to prepare for the procedure. This might include guidelines on eating, drinking, and medication use prior to the surgery. Depending on the type of anesthesia or sedation being used, you may also need to arrange for transportation home after your appointment. Our team will provide clear, step-by-step instructions to ensure your procedure is as smooth and stress-free as possible.

The Procedure

The final step is the procedure itself. Whether it’s a simple tooth extraction, implant placement, or another oral surgery treatment, our dentist will use advanced techniques to ensure precision and comfort. Depending on the complexity of the procedure, local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia may be used. Our team’s expertise and attention to detail allow us to address your oral health concerns efficiently and effectively.

The Benefits of Oral Surgery

Pain Relief

Oral surgery can alleviate discomfort caused by conditions like impacted teeth, infections, or TMJ issues. By addressing the root cause of the pain, treatments such as extractions or corrective surgeries provide lasting relief and a significant improvement in your overall comfort.

Enhanced Oral Health

Treating serious dental concerns through oral surgery helps prevent further complications. Removing decayed or infected teeth, for example, protects the surrounding structures and maintains the health of your gums and jawbone. Similarly, treatments like implant placement can preserve your oral health by preventing bone loss.

Restored Function and Appearance

Oral surgery can also enhance your quality of life by restoring oral function and aesthetics. Procedures such as dental implants improve your ability to chew and speak naturally while boosting your confidence with a beautiful, seamless smile.
