Think of oral surgery as a specialized area where we handle more complex dental needs for your mouth, jaws, and face. While I can take care of most general dental procedures in my Woodland Hills practice, some situations require a more precise touch and advanced training – that’s where oral surgery comes in. Whether it’s a straightforward extraction or a more involved procedure, my focus is always on providing you with the highest level of care, conveniently located for everyone in our Woodland Hills community.
I understand that the idea of oral surgery might sound a little intimidating. That’s why my team and I are dedicated to providing the most compassionate, expert care in a comfortable environment, right here in the heart of Woodland Hills. My goal is to make sure your oral surgery experience is as smooth and stress-free as possible, always putting your well-being first.
I offer a range of common oral surgery procedures designed to improve your oral health, relieve pain, and even prepare your smile for future restorative work. You can rest assured that every procedure is performed with the utmost care and attention to your comfort.
When a surgical procedure is needed, I know you want a team that gives you confidence and provides truly exceptional care. Here’s why my patients choose Smiles By Eddie for oral surgery:
I take every measure to ensure your comfort. I use local anesthesia to numb the treatment area, and I also offer various sedation options to help you relax throughout your procedure. You might feel some mild pressure or swelling during recovery, which can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
Recovery time varies for everyone, depending on the type of procedure. I’ll give you detailed post-operative instructions to help ensure a smooth and quick recovery. Most patients can get back to their normal activities within a few days to a week.
While I often receive referrals, you’re welcome to schedule a consultation directly with me to discuss your needs. During this visit, I’ll assess your condition and recommend the best treatment plan for you.
Coverage for oral surgery can vary quite a bit depending on your specific dental insurance plan. My team will be happy to help you understand your benefits and provide you with an estimate of costs before your procedure. I aim to make dental care in Woodland Hills as accessible as possible for everyone.
I’ll provide you with very clear, detailed instructions for both before and after your procedure. This usually includes guidelines on eating, medications, and how to care for the surgical site to help you heal quickly and comfortably.
