In the situations where teeth are helpless, okay, and they’re infected, and, you know, oral surgery and extractions are really, you know, the only option. As far as, I do my best to save teeth, okay, because my philosophy is very, very simple. I’ve been doing this a very long time.
I’m very good at what I do, okay, but I’m not as good as God. And if I can leave what God gave you, I’m thrilled to death. So no matter what it is, whether it’s just drilling a little bit into a tooth or whether it’s doing a root canal or taking out, if I can avoid it, I’m happy.
It has to be what’s in your best interest as the patient and healthy for you.

You might need oral surgery for a variety of reasons. If you have a damaged or diseased tooth that needs to be extracted, oral surgery will take care of it. You might have wisdom teeth that need removal. A bone graft, sinus lift, or ridge augmentation might be needed to get your mouth ready for implants.
The cost for oral surgery vary depending on the procedure. The condition of your oral health can also play a role in the cost of oral surgery.

We recommend that you eat soft foods and liquids for two or three days after your surgery. Yogurt, soup, pudding, ice cream, and protein shakes are all good choices. It’s a good idea to avoid spicy foods, acidic foods, crunchy foods, and tough-to-chew foods for a week or so.
