Oral Surgery Procedures in South San Francisco, CA
Our practice offers a wide scope of oral surgery procedures to patients of all ages.
Dental Implants
If you have one or more missing or failing teeth, Dental implants are a fantastic tooth replacement option to consider. A dental implant is designed to replicate the function and appearance of a healthy, natural tooth. This includes the titanium implant post, which acts as a tooth root, and a custom-made, durable crown.
Dental implants are the only tooth restoration solution that integrates with the jaw bone beneath the gums, providing stimulation to keep the bone healthy. Without an implant post or teeth roots, the jaw bone will deteriorate over time without the stimulation it needs.
You can receive a single dental implant or an entire new arch of teeth through full-arch restoration. This treatment uses several implant posts to secure a new arch of replacement teeth in one or both dental arches.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Third molars, more commonly known as Wisdom teeth, are the last teeth to erupt in the mouth. This typically happens during the late teens or early twenties. Dentists and oral surgeons recommend having these teeth extracted as soon as possible because the average mouth does not have enough room for an extra set of molars.
Some people develop all four wisdom teeth, while others develop more or less than four. If left untreated, these molars can damage adjacent teeth and push them out of alignment. Their roots can penetrate the roots of other teeth and facial nerves, and they can cause uncomfortable pain and swelling. An impacted tooth is one that is trapped beneath the gums. Impacted wisdom teeth are difficult to clean, leaving you more susceptible to infections, cysts, and tumors.
By having your wisdom teeth extracted by the oral surgeons at 7x7 Dental Implant & Oral Surgery Specialists, you prevent these complications from having the chance to arise. While early extraction is recommended, you can have wisdom teeth removed at any age.
Why Choose an Oral Surgeon
Oral and maxillofacial surgeons specialize in the diagnosis and management of conditions pertaining to the head, neck, mouth, jaws, and teeth. Following dental school, an oral surgeon must complete an additional 4–6 years of training. During this time, they learn to administer all types of anesthesia and sedation, treat a variety of patients, and practice in a hospital setting. When patients require more complex treatment, diagnostics, surgery, or anesthesia, dentists refer them to an oral surgeon.
