What Is Oral Surgery?
Oral surgery deals with diagnosing and treating conditions related to the teeth, gums, jaws, and facial structures. It includes procedures ranging from tooth extractions and wisdom tooth removal to corrective jaw surgery and bone reconstruction. These treatments play an essential role in relieving pain, restoring function, and preventing further oral complications. With advanced surgical techniques, precise imaging, and comfortable anesthesia options, oral surgery today is safer, faster, and more predictable than before.
