ORAL SURGERY

Oral surgery is the area of medicine concerned with correcting problems or damage to the mouth, teeth and jaw.

Minor Oral Surgery

Dentists can do a large number of surgical interventions in the mouth. The term "Minor oral surgery" refers to smaller operations and include removing wisdom teeth, impacted teeth, and severely broken-down teeth, as well as apicectomies, biopsies and other procedures.

Procedures are usually carried out using routine local anaesthesia. Patients requiring treatment under general anaesthesia will be referred to the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department at the relevant hospital.
