Common oral and maxillofacial procedures
Oral surgery may be necessary to address dental issues such as impacted wisdom teeth, severe gum disease, jaw misalignment and facial trauma.
Your dentist might recommend it to alleviate pain, prevent further complications and improve overall oral health and function.
Tooth extraction
Having strong teeth is important, which is why your dentist will make every effort to save them. However, when a tooth is past the point of recovery, removing the tooth is the best option for your oral health.
Wisdom teeth removal
Because our third molars are the last teeth to develop, they can impact the health of the surrounding teeth and gums if they are not removed.
Dental implants
A popular solution to replace missing teeth. Your surgeon will insert a titanium rod in your jawbone that anchors to a dental crown.
Bone grafting
If you do not have sufficient jawbone tissue to support an oral prosthetic (such as an implant), a bone graft procedure can help improve density.
Advanced oral surgery procedures
Some cases are more complex than others
Sometimes the best help you can get is outside of our office. Your Aspen Dental care team will help connect you with a specialist for advanced cases such as:
Adjunctive Treatments
Cleft Lip/Palate Repair
Unequal jaw growth (malocclusion)
Jaw/mouth/teeth injury

What is oral surgery?
Oral surgery refers to surgical procedures performed in the oral cavity and surrounding structures by trained oral surgeons or dentists with specialized training. These procedures address various dental and oral health issues, such as tooth extraction, wisdom teeth removal, dental implants, jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery), gum surgery (periodontal surgery), and treatment of oral diseases or trauma. Oral surgery aims to restore oral function, alleviate pain, and improve overall oral health and aesthetics.
Is oral surgery medical or dental?
Oral surgery falls under the medical and dental fields, involving surgical procedures within the oral cavity and surrounding structures to address dental and oral health issues. While oral surgeons primarily focus on surgical interventions related to the mouth, jaws, and facial structures, their training involves aspects of both medicine and dentistry. Oral surgery integrates medical knowledge with dental expertise to provide comprehensive care for patients' oral health needs.
Does Aspen Dental do oral surgery?
Yes, Aspen Dental offers oral surgery services as part of our comprehensive dental care offerings. There are oral surgeons at Aspen Dental who are trained to perform a variety of surgical procedures within the oral cavity and surrounding structures, including tooth extraction, wisdom teeth removal, dental implants, and other oral surgeries to address specific dental health issues. However, it's always advisable to check with your local Aspen Dental office to confirm the particular services available at that location.
How long does oral surgery take?
The duration of oral surgery varies depending on the specific procedure being performed. Some oral surgeries, such as simple tooth extractions or wisdom teeth removal, may take 30 minutes to an hour to complete. More complex procedures, such as a dental implant placement, can take several hours or even multiple appointments to finish. Your oral surgeon will provide you with an estimate of the expected duration of your surgery during your preoperative consultation.
How much does oral surgery cost without insurance?
Most dental insurance plans provide some coverage for oral surgeries, but it can vary based on the procedure and your insurance plan. Check your plan details with your insurance provider or discover the dental insurance plans accepted by Aspen Dental. We do not accept Medicaid and dental insurance providers accepted can vary based on Aspen Dental location.
