Frequently Asked Questions
Does wisdom tooth removal hurt?
The procedure is performed under anesthesia, so you won't feel pain during extraction. Post-operative discomfort is managed with medication and typically resolves within a few days.
How long is recovery after oral surgery?
Recovery varies by procedure. Simple extractions: 3-7 days. Wisdom teeth: 1-2 weeks. Complex surgeries may require several weeks. We provide detailed recovery instructions.
Can I eat after oral surgery?
Start with soft foods and gradually return to normal diet. Avoid hot, spicy, or hard foods initially. Follow our specific dietary guidelines for your procedure.
Do you offer sedation?
Yes, we offer local anesthesia, nitrous oxide (laughing gas), and IV sedation options. We'll discuss the best option for your procedure and comfort level.
