At Smile Bay, we offer a comprehensive range of surgical dentistry services to address complex dental issues and restore your oral health. Our experienced team utilizes advanced technology and techniques to ensure safe and effective treatments in a comfortable and supportive environment.
Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Wisdom tooth extraction is a surgical procedure to remove one or more wisdom teeth — the four permanent adult teeth located at the back corners of your mouth on the top and bottom.
If a wisdom tooth doesn’t have room to grow (impacted wisdom tooth), resulting in pain, infection or other dental problems, you’ll likely need to have it pulled. Wisdom tooth extraction may be done by a dentist or an oral surgeon.
Tongue tie
A condition that restricts the tongue’s range of motion. The condition is present at birth. A short, tight band of tissue tethers the tongue’s tip to the floor of the mouth. It can affect how a child eats and speaks and can interfere with breastfeeding. Symptoms usually self-diagnosable symptoms include difficulty sticking out the tongue past the lower front teeth or lifting it to the upper teeth, although many people have no symptoms.
Treatment depends on severity the condition often resolves itself. If not, it can be treated with surgery (lingual frenectomy).
Cyst Enucleation
Dental cysts are often the result of a problematic tooth or distressed gum tissues. These small pockets of fluid can sometimes be sterile or might contain infectious material. Dental cysts can be found around the roots of dead/infected teeth, within the gums, around impacted wisdom teeth, in your maxillary sinuses or within the jawbone.
If you do notice strange growths in your mouth and other issues with your dental health, do not hesitate to discuss these changes with your dentist. Getting early treatment could be detecting a serious health issue in an early stage or preventing further dental problems. The cause and severity of a dental cyst will determine the course of treatment.
Dental cysts are normally picked up during a routine examination, which includes dental x-rays. 3D CBCT scan can provide more information about the cyst and its relationship with surrounding teeth and other structures (nerves, sinuses) within the bone.
