Common Questions About Oral Surgery
Q When would I need oral surgery?
Several situations may call for oral surgery. A severely damaged or infected tooth that can't be saved with other treatments may need to be removed. Wisdom teeth frequently cause crowding, pain, or infection as they come in and often require extraction. Procedures like bone grafts, sinus lifts, and ridge augmentations are often used to prepare the jaw for dental implants.
Q When is oral surgery covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on your individual plan and the type of procedure involved. Some oral surgery is covered under dental insurance. Certain procedures may fall under medical insurance instead. We recommend checking with your carrier before treatment begins so you have a clear picture of your out-of-pocket costs.
Q When can I exercise after oral surgery?
It's best to avoid physical activity for the first 24 hours after surgery. Overexertion too soon can disturb the blood clot at an extraction site, leading to a painful condition called dry socket. After the first day, stick to light, low-impact movement for several more days and let your body guide your recovery.
