Advanced Surgical Care for a Healthier Smile
Tooth extractions—often thought of simply as “pulling” a tooth—are one of the most common forms of oral surgery. However, oral surgery covers a wide range of procedures designed to treat issues that can’t be resolved with routine dental care. At Bliss Dental & Orthodontics in Lubbock, TX, we offer surgical treatments that help protect and restore your oral health. Our team will also help determine when a root canal is no longer a viable option and when oral surgery is the most effective treatment.
When Oral Surgery Becomes Necessary
Oral surgery is often recommended when dental concerns involve deeper structures of the teeth, gums, or jaw. Common reasons patients require oral surgery include:
- Impacted or partially erupted wisdom teeth
- Teeth that have been severely damaged and cannot be restored
- Baby teeth that are “stuck” or preventing permanent teeth from erupting
- Loose teeth that require extraction to prepare for full or partial dentures
- Dense or insufficient bone that needs reshaping or grafting
- Preparation for dental implants
- Root or tooth positioning that requires surgical access
