Oral Surgery Oral surgery has vastly improved over the last few decades. Thanks to groundbreaking techniques and cutting-edge technology, our surgical options are safer, faster, and more effective than ever before. If you need oral surgery, you've come to the right place! Smile Dental Clinic specializes in a variety of surgical procedures that will improve your oral health and the appearance of your smile.Root CanalA root canal is a last-ditch effort to save a tooth from extraction. We may recommend a root canal if an infection has spread to the "pulpy" center of the tooth that contains nerve endings and other connective tissues. Once the infection has been removed, we fill the canals with a rubber-like material known as gutta-percha. A tooth that has received root canal treatment typically needs to be capped with a crown. Tooth ExtractionThere are two types of tooth extractions: simple and surgical. We perform a simple extraction on a tooth that has already erupted above the gumline. We perform a surgical extraction on a tooth that has become impacted or has yet to erupt, such as wisdom teeth. Extraction may be necessary to prevent the spread of infection and other complications.
