Expert Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in New York

If you need a tooth extracted, dental implants, or wisdom teeth pulled, finding board certified oral surgeons you trust makes all the difference, easing your worries and giving you the best possible care you deserve. Oral and maxillofacial surgery addresses various conditions affecting your mouth, jaw bone, and facial regions, from wisdom tooth removal to reconstructive procedures. These treatments require precision and specialized training from a maxillofacial surgeon to ensure good results and a comfortable recovery.

At SmileWorks in Manhattan, we provide comprehensive oral maxillofacial surgery services for patients throughout New York City. Our compassionate, caring team delivers personalized surgical care in our comfortable Central Park South office, using advanced techniques and IV sedation options to minimize discomfort and ensure a painless, smooth recovery. Whether you need wisdom teeth extractions or more complex maxillofacial surgery, our experienced team with extensive experience is ready to help restore your health.

Oral and Maxillofacial Procedures

Our oral and maxillofacial surgeon offers the full scope of treatments addressing functional problems, preparing for restorative work, or improving health. Depending on your unique needs and goals, we can help you understand your treatment options and the steps to ease any nervous feelings. Common types we perform include the following:

Tooth Extractions

One of the most frequently performed treatments involves the removal of teeth that cannot be saved or are causing problems because they’re impacted, painful, or severely damaged. We may also extract teeth to create space for proper alignment during orthodontic treatment. Extractions may be simple or require a surgical procedure, depending on tooth position, root structure, and accessibility.

Dental Implants

Dental implants replace missing teeth, an issue that affects an estimated 178 million Americans. This solution uses small, metal posts to replace the tooth roots in the jawbone and restorations, such as crowns, bridges, and dentures, to fill the gaps in your smile. Dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone to prevent future bone loss and provide a stable, secure result that feels natural.

Root Canal Therapy

If the inner tissue of your tooth, also called the pulp, is infected or damaged, a root canal can help relieve pain and preserve your natural tooth. During this appointment, we remove the damaged pulp, clean the tooth, shape the tooth canals to prepare them for filling, seal the canals with filling material, and place a crown over the tooth to prevent future damage.

Gum Contouring

Gum contouring reshapes gum tissue for functional or aesthetic purposes, including crown lengthening, gummy smile correction, uneven gumlines, and preparing the gums for crowns or veneers. This can help improve your smile bright appearance and health by making it easier to care for your teeth and gums.

How to Prepare for Oral Surgery

Proper preparation helps ensure successful outcomes for treatments. Our knowledgeable team can help you understand what to do before your appointment and what to expect during recovery, so you can feel prepared and supported through every stage of your treatment.

Before Your Appointment

Before your treatment, you may complete any necessary testing, inform us about any medications you take and conditions you have, arrange for transportation to and from if sedation is needed, and follow fasting guidelines if required. This helps the day go smoothly.

What to Expect During Recovery

Recovery varies based on the specific treatment but generally includes a one to three-day healing period, possible swelling, gradual improvement over seven to 10 days, and complete healing over several weeks to months. Based on your specific treatment, we can review what recovery may look like so you can adequately prepare.

Post-Treatment Care

Proper aftercare is essential for optimal healing. We advise you to take all your prescribed medications as directed, apply ice to minimize swelling, follow dietary restrictions during the healing period if needed, and attend all follow-up appointments to monitor your progress.
