Oral Surgery

Oral surgery plays an important role in maintaining and restoring oral health when more advanced care is needed. At Artistic Dentistry, oral surgery is approached with precision, compassion, and a strong focus on patient comfort. Whether surgery is needed to remove a problematic tooth or address underlying oral health concerns, each procedure is performed with careful planning and modern techniques. Oral surgery may be recommended for teeth that are severely damaged, impacted, infected, or unable to be saved through restorative treatment. It can also be part of a larger treatment plan to improve bite alignment, prepare for dental implants, or protect surrounding teeth and bone. Addressing these issues early helps prevent pain, infection, and more complex dental problems in the future. Patients from Creve Coeur, St. Louis, Maryland Heights, Ladue, Chesterfield, and Olivette often feel anxious about oral surgery, which is why comfort and communication are emphasized at every step. Before any procedure, a thorough evaluation is completed and treatment options are clearly explained. This allows patients to feel informed, prepared, and confident in their care. Modern techniques and technology help make oral surgery more efficient and predictable. Careful planning minimizes discomfort and supports smoother healing. After surgery, detailed guidance is provided to promote recovery and protect long-term oral health. The goal is not only to resolve the immediate issue but to support a healthy, stable smile moving forward.
