Oral Surgery
When the term "oral surgery" is mentioned, it may sound intimidating, but many oral surgery procedures are routine and highly effective for addressing common dental concerns. At our practice, we specialize in three key oral surgery services: Wisdom Tooth Extractions, and Tooth Extractions. Each procedure is tailored to restore and maintain your oral health, helping you achieve a confident and functional smile. Most treatments are completed on an outpatient basis, allowing for a quick recovery.
Tooth Extractions
Tooth extractions are sometimes necessary when a tooth is too damaged or decayed to be saved. At Richmond Centre Dental Clinic, we offer gentle, efficient extractions for both emergency situations and planned treatments, such as orthodontic preparation or resolving crowding. Our team prioritizes your comfort and provides personalized aftercare instructions to support smooth healing and minimize discomfort.
Dental Implant Surgery
Dental implant surgery offers a permanent solution for missing teeth by placing titanium posts into the jawbone to support crowns, bridges, or dentures. This procedure not only restores your smile’s appearance but also preserves jawbone structure and bite alignment. At our clinic, we use advanced technology to ensure precise placement and long-term success, followed by a custom restoration plan for optimal results.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth often emerge during the late teens or early twenties, but they frequently lack the space needed to grow properly. This can cause discomfort, infection, or alignment problems. We provide routine wisdom teeth removal with a focus on reducing post-operative pain and swelling, helping patients recover quickly and comfortably while avoiding long-term oral health issues.
Impacted Wisdom Teeth
Impacted wisdom teeth remain trapped beneath the gums or jawbone, which can lead to swelling, infection, and damage to nearby teeth. These cases often require surgical removal. Using diagnostic imaging and precision techniques, our team carefully removes impacted teeth to protect your oral health and prevent further complications, all while ensuring patient comfort throughout the process.
Crown Lengthening
Crown lengthening is a surgical procedure that reshapes the gum line and exposes more of the tooth structure. It may be recommended for cosmetic reasons, such as correcting a "gummy" smile, or to allow proper placement of a crown or filling. The treatment helps restore the balance and health of your gum tissue while enhancing the appearance and function of your teeth.
Gum Grafts
Gum grafting treats receding gums by covering exposed roots with tissue, usually taken from the roof of the mouth or nearby areas. This procedure not only improves the appearance of your smile but also protects against sensitivity, tooth decay, and further gum loss. Our team ensures a comfortable experience with lasting results that promote long-term gum health.
Bone Grafts
Bone grafts help rebuild and strengthen areas of the jaw where bone loss has occurred, often in preparation for dental implants. Whether due to trauma, periodontal disease, or long-term tooth loss, this procedure restores your jaw’s structure and volume. We offer safe, effective bone grafting options tailored to support implant success and long-term oral health.
Full Mouth Reconstruction
Full mouth reconstruction combines restorative and surgical procedures to rebuild your smile and restore full oral function. This customized treatment plan may include extractions, implants, crowns, bridges, and gum treatments. Ideal for patients with complex dental needs, full mouth reconstruction improves both the health and aesthetics of your smile, rejuvenating your confidence and quality of life.
