What Is Oral Surgery?

Oral surgery encompasses specialized procedures that address conditions of the mouth, jaw, and facial regions requiring surgical expertise. Our practice handles everything from routine extractions to complex reconstructive procedures, providing Lomita residents with effective solutions for challenging oral health issues.

We understand many patients feel anxious about surgical procedures. Our team creates a supportive, comfortable environment through clear communication, personalized care, and effective sedation options. Lomita patients frequently express surprise at how comfortable their procedure was and how smoothly their recovery progressed compared to their expectations.

Our Oral Surgery Services

Wisdom Teeth Removal

When wisdom teeth become impacted or problematic, removal helps prevent infection, crowding, and damage to healthy adjacent teeth. For Lomita residents, we provide expert extraction services utilizing detailed 3D imaging for comprehensive surgical planning. The procedure incorporates appropriate sedation tailored to your comfort needs, ensuring a stress-free experience. Our precise surgical technique minimizes tissue disruption, resulting in less swelling and quicker recovery for patients returning to their Lomita homes and routines.

Dental Implants

Lomita residents seeking permanent tooth replacement find ideal solutions with our comprehensive implant services. These biocompatible titanium anchors serve as artificial tooth roots, providing stable support for crowns, bridges, or full-arch restorations. For patients missing an entire arch of teeth, our innovative All-on-Four approach anchors a complete set of teeth using strategically placed implants, often eliminating extensive bone grafting requirements. This technique provides immediate function with fewer surgical interventions, dramatically improving quality of life.

Bone Grafting

Successful implant placement requires adequate jawbone volume and density, which often diminishes following tooth loss. Our specialized bone grafting procedures rebuild this essential foundation, creating the proper structure for implant stability and support. Using various grafting materials and approaches, we develop customized solutions for Lomita patients with different degrees of bone loss. These restorative procedures enable implant placement for many patients previously told they lacked sufficient bone structure, opening new restoration possibilities.

TMJ Treatment

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders affect many Lomita residents, causing jaw pain, clicking, limited movement, and associated headaches. Our practice provides comprehensive evaluation and treatment options ranging from conservative therapies to surgical interventions when necessary. We help patients understand the underlying causes of their symptoms and develop treatment plans that address these specific factors. Many patients experience significant relief from persistent symptoms that had previously impacted their daily comfort and activities.

What Are The Benefits of Professional Oral Surgery?

Immediate Pain Resolution

Professional oral surgery provides definitive solutions for painful conditions that don’t respond to conservative treatment. For Lomita residents suffering with impacted wisdom teeth, dental infections, or jaw dysfunction, surgical intervention often delivers immediate relief after appropriate healing. This rapid resolution of chronic pain allows patients to return to normal activities without the persistent discomfort that previously limited their daily function, sleep quality, and overall well-being.

Preservation of Surrounding Structures

Specialized surgical techniques preserve healthy tissues while addressing problematic areas. When extracting damaged teeth, careful approaches maintain surrounding bone and gum tissue critical for future restorations. During TMJ procedures, precise techniques protect nerves and blood vessels essential for normal facial function. This preservation focus significantly impacts both immediate recovery and long-term oral health for Lomita patients, maintaining structural integrity that supports future treatment options when needed.

Cosmetic Improvement

Many oral surgery procedures deliver substantial aesthetic benefits alongside their functional improvements. Corrective jaw surgery improves facial symmetry and profile harmony. Dental implants prevent the sunken appearance that follows bone loss, maintaining youthful facial contours. For Lomita residents concerned about appearance, these procedures often provide transformative cosmetic results that boost confidence in professional and social settings, enhancing quality of life beyond the primary functional improvements.

Investment in Lifelong Health

While initially more involved than temporary solutions, surgical intervention often provides lifetime benefits that prevent progressive deterioration. Dental implants stimulate bone preservation that prevents the advancing bone loss typical with dentures. Correcting bite abnormalities reduces abnormal wear on remaining teeth, preventing future breakage. For Lomita patients considering treatment options, professional oral surgery represents an investment in sustainable oral health that prevents cascading problems requiring additional interventions later in life.

SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT

Your care begins with a comprehensive consultation where we evaluate your condition and discuss appropriate treatment options. We emphasize clear communication throughout your surgical journey, ensuring you understand both the recommended procedures and what to expect at each stage. Our team handles insurance verification, appointment scheduling, and pre-operative preparation, making each step seamless. We encourage bringing a support person to appointments, especially for procedures involving sedation, for additional comfort and assistance.
