Frequently Asked Questions
What is oral and maxillofacial surgery?
Oral and maxillofacial surgery is a specialized field of dentistry that focuses on diagnosing and treating conditions affecting the mouth, jaws, face, and neck. This includes procedures such as wisdom tooth removal, dental implants, corrective jaw surgery, facial trauma repair, and treatment for oral pathologies.
When should I see an oral and maxillofacial surgeon?
You should see an oral and maxillofacial surgeon if you have impacted teeth (like wisdom teeth), missing teeth that need implants, facial injuries, jaw misalignment, or oral lesions. Your general dentist may also refer you to a surgeon for more complex extractions or corrective procedures that require advanced surgical expertise.
Is oral surgery painful?
Most oral and maxillofacial procedures are performed under local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. While some mild soreness or swelling afterward is normal, your surgeon will provide detailed aftercare instructions and prescribe medications to manage pain effectively and promote healing.
How long is the recovery after oral surgery?
Recovery time varies depending on the procedure. Simple extractions may heal within a few days, while more complex surgeries, such as jaw reconstruction or implant placement, can take several weeks for full recovery. Following your surgeon’s post-operative instructions—such as resting, avoiding strenuous activity, and maintaining proper oral hygiene—helps speed up healing.
