What Is Oral Surgery?

Our patients frequently tell us the procedure was much easier than they anticipated.
Our Oral Surgery Services
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth often require removal due to impaction, crowding, or potential complications. At Silegy OMFS, we provide both routine and complex extractions using advanced imaging for precise planning. Our focus on patient comfort includes tailored sedation options to ensure a stress-free experience with minimal discomfort and faster recovery times.
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide a permanent tooth replacement solution that looks, feels, and functions naturally. We offer comprehensive implant services from single-tooth replacements to full-arch restorations using the innovative All-on-Four technique. This approach supports an entire arch of teeth with just four strategically placed implants, often eliminating the need for bone grafting and reducing recovery time.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting rebuilds jaw structure compromised by tooth loss, periodontal disease, or trauma, creating a solid foundation for dental implants. We employ various grafting materials and techniques, carefully selecting the most appropriate approach for your unique circumstances. Our precision-guided procedures ensure successful implant outcomes even when initial bone density is insufficient.
TMJ Treatment
TMJ disorders can cause significant pain and dysfunction in the jaw joint and surrounding muscles. We provide comprehensive diagnosis and treatment options ranging from conservative therapies to surgical interventions when necessary. Our specialized approach helps patients find relief from chronic pain and restore normal jaw function, often after years of discomfort.

What Are The Benefits of Professional Oral Surgery?
Improved Oral Health
Oral surgery addresses conditions that, if left untreated, can lead to more serious health issues. Removing impacted wisdom teeth prevents infection, crowding, and damage to adjacent teeth. Similarly, replacing missing teeth with dental implants helps maintain proper bone structure and prevents the shifting of remaining teeth. By addressing these issues surgically, Dr. Silegy helps patients avoid future complications and maintain optimal oral health for years to come.
Enhanced Quality of Life
Many oral surgery procedures directly improve patients’ quality of life by eliminating pain, restoring function, and enhancing appearance. TMJ treatments can relieve chronic jaw pain and headaches that have persisted for years. Dental implants restore the ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. These improvements extend beyond physical health, positively impacting patients’ social interactions, professional opportunities, and overall well-being.
Precise Diagnosis and Treatment
As a specialist, Dr. Silegy has access to advanced diagnostic tools and surgical techniques not typically available in general dental practices. Digital imaging, 3D modeling, and computer-guided surgery allow for precise planning and execution of complex procedures. This specialized approach leads to more predictable outcomes, faster healing times, and fewer complications compared to less specialized treatment options.
Long-term Cost Effectiveness
While oral surgery may represent a significant initial investment, many procedures prove more cost-effective in the long run. Dental implants, for example, can last a lifetime with proper care, eliminating the need for periodic replacements required with dentures or bridges. Similarly, addressing problems like impacted wisdom teeth proactively prevents more costly complications that might arise from delayed treatment.
SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT
Silegy OMFS sees patients by appointment, beginning with your initial consultation. We will take the time to understand your needs, your goals, and concerns, then discuss what options are available to you, so you can make the right decision for your health. We care to ensure all your questions are answered and you are fully informed and confident in the decisions you make for your health. We have many options to ensure your care is affordable and fits within your budget. For your comfort, we welcome you to bring a family member or important person who helps you make health decisions.
Patient-Focused Expertise
Dr. Silegy’s board certification and extensive training directly benefit you through more precise surgeries, reduced complications, and better outcomes. Rather than viewing this expertise as an academic achievement, we see it as a practical tool that allows us to solve complex oral health problems while keeping your comfort and concerns at the center of everything we do.
Comprehensive Care Under One Roof
Unlike many practices that refer patients elsewhere for various aspects of treatment, Silegy OMFS offers comprehensive surgical care in one location. From initial consultation and imaging to surgery and follow-up care, patients benefit from a seamless experience coordinated by a single team. This integrated approach ensures continuity of care and eliminates the confusion and delays often associated with multiple referrals.
Advanced Technology and Techniques
Silegy OMFS remains at the forefront of oral surgery by continuously investing in advanced technology and adopting innovative techniques. Digital imaging systems provide detailed views of oral structures while minimizing radiation exposure. Computer-guided implant placement ensures optimal positioning for long-term success. These technological advantages translate to more precise surgeries, faster recovery times, and better overall outcomes for our patients.
