Rely on Our Experience to Take Care of Your Extraction

The day may come when you need an oral surgery procedure. In that case, you can count on us to perform your surgery as gently as possible.

If you’re nervous about your procedure, take advantage of dental sedation using laughing gas. It works well at taking the edge off, and the effects will wear off quickly after your surgery is complete.

Below are two types of oral surgery we routinely perform:

  • Tooth Extraction – Saving a tooth is always our priority, but sometimes that’s not possible. If a tooth is too badly damaged or diseased, or if you need to make room for dentures, removal may be necessary. It’s always best to replace a missing tooth so that your other teeth don’t shift and cause bite problems. So, we may recommend a bridge or an implant-crown combination to replace one tooth or a bridge, dentures, or implants to replace multiple teeth.
  • Wisdom Teeth Removal – Between the ages of 17 and 25, wisdom teeth begin to emerge. For some people, these teeth come through with no problem. For others, however, they come in under other teeth or only partially emerge. In these situations, wisdom teeth need to be removed to avoid dental damage and pain. We’ll evaluate your case to see if we can remove them. If we can’t, we’ll refer you to a trusted specialist who can.

If you think you need oral surgery in Monee, call the team at Athos Dental at 708-426-1478 for a complimentary consultation. You can also request an appointment online.

Common Questions About Oral Surgery

When would I need oral surgery?

Tooth extraction is often needed if a tooth is too damaged to repair or if it is damaging your other teeth. In some cases, you need to have teeth removed to make room for dentures or another dental restoration. We can also remove wisdom teeth if necessary. We’ll evaluate your case to see if we can help. If we can’t, we’ll refer you to a specialist who can remove them.

When is oral surgery covered by insurance?

Your dental insurance or medical insurance may cover a portion of your oral surgery. We recommend you check with your individual carriers to find out what they will and won’t pay for before you have any work done. That way there aren’t any big surprises in store for you. As a convenience, we offer third-party financing through CareCredit.

When can I exercise after oral surgery?

You should not exercise at all for the first 24 hours after your surgery. Doing so could cause problems that prolong your healing. For example, strenuous exercise can loosen the blood clot on an extraction site and cause a painful condition known as dry socket. After the first day, limit your exercise to low-impact activities for several more days.
