When is dental surgery needed?
Our pediatric dentists specialize in diagnosing and treating a variety of dental issues that may require surgical intervention. Some common reasons for pediatric dental surgery include:
- Tooth Extractions – Removal of severely decayed or damaged teeth to prevent infection and promote oral health.
- Frenectomy (Lip and Tongue-Tie Release) – A simple procedure to correct tongue-tie or lip-tie issues, improving speech, feeding, and oral function.
- Dental Abscess Treatment – Removal of infected tissue to alleviate pain and prevent the spread of infection.
- Impacted Tooth Exposure – Assistance in guiding unerupted teeth into their correct position.
- Dental Trauma Repair – Surgical treatment for broken, fractured, or displaced teeth due to injury.
Gentle Sedation and Anesthesia Options
We prioritize your child’s comfort and safety during any dental procedure. Our office offers several sedation options to help reduce anxiety and ensure a pain-free experience:
- Nitrous Oxide (Laughing Gas) – A mild sedative that helps relax children while keeping them fully conscious.
- Oral Sedation – A prescribed medication taken before the procedure to ease nervousness.
- IV Sedation – Administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist for children requiring a deeper level of sedation.
- General Anesthesia – Recommended for more complex cases, performed in a hospital or specialized setting.
