From tooth extractions and dental implants to bone and gum grafts, every treatment is planned with your long-term oral health in mind.
If you're considering oral surgery in Westchester County, NY, it's often because you need more advanced care to restore or protect your oral health. Oral surgery can address a variety of issues -- from removing damaged or impacted teeth to rebuilding bone or gum tissue for future dental restorations. At Advanced Dentistry of Scarsdale, we coordinate comprehensive surgical care that includes tooth extractions, wisdom tooth removal, dental implant placement, bone grafting, and gum grafting.
Tooth Extraction
At Advanced Dentistry of Scarsdale in Westchester, our top priority is preserving your natural teeth whenever possible. We take a conservative approach to care, focusing on maintaining the health and structure of your smile. Tooth extraction is only recommended when a tooth cannot be restored, and we make sure you feel informed and comfortable throughout the process.
There are many reasons someone might need oral surgery. Teens often require extractions when there isn't enough room for adult teeth to come in properly. Adults may have wisdom teeth removed to relieve pain or prevent crowding. In other cases, advanced decay, infection, or gum disease can make extraction the best option for protecting your overall health.
Types of Extraction
If a tooth does need to be removed, your dentist will determine whether a simple or surgical extraction is appropriate. A simple extraction involves numbing the area and gently removing the tooth, while a surgical extraction may require sedation and a small incision if the tooth is broken, impacted, or below the gumline.
Your Comfort Is Our Priority
Feeling nervous about oral surgery is normal, and we're here to help. From anesthesia options to clear communication, our priority is keeping you comfortable and confident throughout your care.
Dental Implant Surgery
Dental implants are one of the most reliable ways to replace missing teeth. Once placed, they bond naturally with your jawbone, creating a strong, lasting foundation that looks and feels like your own teeth.
At Advanced Dentistry of Scarsdale, we take time to understand your goals for both function and appearance before planning your procedure. Using advanced digital imaging, we design every step -- from implant placement to your final restoration -- with precision and comfort in mind.
Most implant surgeries are simple and comfortable, often completed under local anesthesia. If needed, sedation options are available to help you relax. After placement, the implants gradually fuse with your bone over the next few months, setting the stage for your custom crown, bridge, or denture. The result is a confident, natural-looking smile that can last for decades with proper care.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
- Natural look and feel that blends with your smile
- Strong, lasting foundation that fuses with jawbone
- Preserves bone and prevents further loss
- Can last decades with proper care
- Entire process completed in one convenient location
Grafting Procedures
Bone Graft
The bones in your jaw not only support your teeth but also help shape your face. Gum disease, facial trauma, aging, or bone loss over time can reduce the amount of bone available for dental implants. When that happens, a bone graft can rebuild the foundation you need for long-term stability.
Bone grafting is often an important first step for patients considering advanced implant solutions such as All-on-4, implant-supported dentures, or Teeth-in-a-Day. These treatments rely on a strong, healthy jawbone to secure your new teeth and provide lasting comfort and function.
The grafting material may come from your own bone or from a safe, sterilized donor source. Once placed, your body gradually integrates the material, creating a solid base for future implants and restorations.
Gum Graft
Gum disease or injury can lead to areas where you don't have enough gums to cover your tooth roots or even your jawbone. With a gum graft, a flap of gum material is moved to cover these areas. Sometimes, the gum graft remains attached and can be rotated where needed. Other times, your dentist will remove the graft material entirely and place it where needed.
Restore Your Smile with Oral Surgery
Oral surgery doesn't have to feel intimidating when you're in skilled, caring hands. At Advanced Dentistry of Scarsdale, our goal is to make every step of your treatment as comfortable and stress-free as possible -- from the first consultation to your final results. Whether you're restoring missing teeth, improving your bite, or rebuilding bone and gum tissue, we'll guide you through the process with precision and compassion.
