Understanding Oral Surgery in Glen Rock and Ramsey

For most dental issues, visiting a general dentist in your area can provide you with treatments that will resolve your problems quickly. For some more complicated or extensive procedures, however, you may need the assistance of Dr. Sakar or the team at Ridgewood Oral Surgery & Implant Center to resolve your difficulties and to provide you with the best care possible in Glen Rock and Ramsey. Here are some facts you and your family should know about general dentistry and oral surgery from Ridgewood Oral Surgery & Implant Center.

 General Dentistry vs. Oral Surgery

 Understanding the difference between general dentistry procedures and oral surgeries can help you determine whether you will need the services of a dentist or an oral surgeon. Oral surgeons have additional training in surgical techniques and may have a degree in medicine as well as a degree in dentistry. This allows you and your family to receive the specialized care you need when you need it most.

 At Ridgewood Oral Surgery & Implant Center, Dr. Sakar and his team make any oral surgery an easy process at their Glen Rock and Ramsey offices. You can receive the best treatment for your specific set of needs in our office. Here are some of the most common procedures done by either a general dentist or an oral surgeon.

General Dentistry: 

• Preventive dental services include teeth cleanings, examinations, and dental X-rays. 
• Simple extractions and fillings are also considered to be general dentistry services.
• Crowns and bridges can provide you with added support for damaged teeth or replacements for a single missing tooth or several missing teeth.
• Dentures are another dental service typically performed by a general dentistry team. 

Oral Surgery: 

• The removal of wisdom teeth or severely damaged teeth is usually performed by Dr. Sakar and his team at Ridgewood Oral Surgery & Implant Center. This ensures that all fragments of the tooth are removed during your surgical procedure. Wisdom teeth often become impacted, which means that they push on other teeth because of a lack of room in your jaw for these teeth. Your oral surgeon can carefully remove impacted wisdom teeth to free up room in your jaw and to provide you with added help in managing pain or potential damage that wisdom teeth can cause.
• Oral surgery may be required to remove pockets of infection caused by periodontal disease, correct deformities of the palate or lips, remove oral cancers, and restore the proper function and alignment of the jaw. These maxillofacial and periodontal oral surgeries must be performed by Dr. Sakar and his team at Ridgewood Oral Surgery & Implant Center to achieve the best results for you and your family members. Our oral surgeons provide safe and effective surgical options in our office that can allow you to receive the right care in a comfortable and familiar setting.
• Dental implants are usually applied by an oral surgeon to ensure precise placement and the right surgical approach to these dental solutions. When your dental implants have healed in place, our dentists will apply artificial teeth, bridges, or dentures to these titanium or zirconia implants. This will help you look your best and feel more confident in all your interactions with others.
• If other treatment options do not produce the desired results, surgical intervention for sleep apnea may be recommended by your doctor or dentist. Dr. Sakar and our oral surgeons at Ridgewood Oral Surgery & Implant Center give practical help in managing sleep apnea effectively and in the most proactive and long-lasting way possible.

We also offer payment plans that will allow you to spread the cost of your treatment over a longer period.
