Oral Surgery In Downtown Toronto
Not every dental problem can be handled with a quick visit. Some need surgery — whether that’s a tooth that won’t come out, an infection deep below the gums, or work to prepare for implants. These procedures sound big, but in most cases they’re straightforward once you know what to expect.
When Surgery Comes Into Play
It might be a wisdom tooth stuck under the gum. A broken tooth that can’t be reached with routine tools. Or bone that needs shaping so a denture or implant will fit properly. Each case is different, and the plan is explained in plain language before anything begins.
The Appointment
Numbing is standard, and sedation can be added if nerves are an issue. Surgery itself may involve lifting the gum, sectioning a tooth, or cleaning out infected tissue. While the word “surgery” can sound intimidating, the procedure is often quicker than patients expect.
Aftercare And Recovery
Some swelling, tenderness, or minor bleeding is normal. We’ll give you instructions for rest, diet, and cleaning so healing goes smoothly. Most people manage well with simple pain relief and a couple of quiet days at home.
Why It Matters
Putting surgery off doesn’t make the problem disappear. Infections can spread, teeth can shift, and pain can worsen. Dealing with it sooner usually means an easier recovery and fewer complications.
