Strengthen Your Smile With Oral Surgery in Livonia
Not every dental concern requires surgery. However, sometimes oral surgery in Livonia is necessary to improve your smile’s health, function, and beauty. You can trust that your dentist will only recommend it when necessary. It can:
- Strengthen your jaw to support dental implants by addressing bone loss in the area
- Allow you to enjoy a wider variety of foods once your normal chewing function is restored
- Reduce the risk for damage to healthy remaining teeth by correcting bite issues
- Stop an infection from putting your smile at risk for more serious problems
- Bring you one step closer to getting your complete and healthy smile back
Call 734-875-8783 for a consultation. Your dentist can also schedule a free implant consultation, which includes CBCT scans of your mouth. We perform many surgeries in-house so you won’t have to see an outside oral surgeon.
Create a Foundation of Good Oral Health
Prepare Your Smile
Surgery is an important part of many treatment plans. Your dentist may recommend it to:
- Get You Ready for Implants – Certain surgeries can make you a candidate for implants, such as bone grafts, sinus lifts, or ridge augmentation.
- Make Room for Restorations – To prepare your mouth for restorations, your dentist may need to perform a tooth removal procedure.
- Protect Your Oral Health – Your dentist may extract a seriously infected tooth if healthy teeth are at risk. We also perform wisdom teeth removal to keep your smile intact.
- Beautify Your Gumline – If you have gum loss, a gum graft can replenish the area. We can also reshape your gumline to make it look more even or to make room for veneers or crowns.

Frequently Asked Questions About Oral Surgery
There are many reasons you may need an oral surgery procedure. One of the most common is to remove teeth, whether you need to make room for dentures or another restoration or to avoid future dental problems. You may also need gum surgery to repair damaged gums. If you are getting implants, you may need a procedure such as a bone graft or sinus lift to ensure your jaw is strong enough to support them.
Your pain level will vary depending on the extent of your surgical procedure, your age, and your overall health. For some procedures, you may feel little or no pain as you recover. For more extensive procedures, you may have some soreness. In any case, we’ll provide guidance to help you minimize pain and soreness.
It’s best to stick to soft foods for a few days following an extraction. Good choices include eggs, pudding, yogurt, and similar foods. Avoid temperature extremes, acidic foods, spicy foods, and sugary and/or acidic beverages. Stick with water, milk, and unsweetened tea. You should also avoid drinking through a straw since it can damage your extraction site.
