What is Oral Surgery? How Does It Differ from General Dentistry?

Oral surgeons are dentists who have completed additional years of hospital-based surgical and anesthesia training beyond dental school, specializing in diagnosing and treating conditions affecting the mouth, teeth, jaws, and face. Unlike a general dentist, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon is qualified to administer general anesthesia and IV sedation, perform complex extractions, place dental implants, and treat facial trauma. Some oral surgeons are also trained as maxillofacial surgeons, managing injuries and conditions affecting the face, head, jaw, neck, and mouth.

Oral Surgery Services Offered at Our Boca Raton Dental Practice

Our Boca Raton oral surgeons offer a full spectrum of surgical procedures tailored to each patient's needs. Whether you need a simple extraction or advanced jaw reconstruction, our team is here to help.

Wisdom Teeth Removal – Boca Raton

Impacted wisdom teeth can cause severe pain, infection, crowding, and damage to neighboring teeth. Our oral surgeons perform wisdom teeth removal in Boca Raton using IV sedation or general anesthesia for maximum comfort. We will evaluate your teeth with digital X-rays and walk you through every step of the process before your procedure.

Dental Implants – Boca Raton

Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. Dr. Rand specializes in CT-guided dental implant surgery, offering unmatched precision and predictability. After healing, a custom crown or bridge is attached to restore your smile fully. Implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth.

Bone Grafting – Boca Raton

If you have experienced bone loss due to tooth loss, gum disease, or infection, bone grafting can rebuild the jawbone to support dental implants. Our surgeons perform ridge augmentation and sinus lift procedures to ensure you have the ideal foundation for implant placement.

Tooth Extractions – Boca Raton

Tooth extraction is performed when a tooth is severely decayed, infected, fractured, or impacted. Our oral surgeons handle both simple and surgical extractions, ensuring the procedure is performed safely and comfortably under local anesthesia, IV sedation, or general anesthesia depending on the complexity of your case.

Jaw Surgery (Orthognathic Surgery) – Boca Raton

Corrective jaw surgery, or orthognathic surgery, is performed to correct skeletal and dental irregularities of the jaw, including misaligned bites, jaw pain, and facial asymmetry. Dr. Rand has extensive experience performing jaw surgery in Boca Raton to improve both function and aesthetics.

Sleep Apnea Treatment – Boca Raton

Obstructive sleep apnea is a serious condition in which the airway becomes blocked during sleep, leading to interrupted breathing. When oral appliances and CPAP therapy are ineffective, oral surgery can correct the structural issues in the mouth and throat contributing to sleep apnea, providing long-term relief.

TMJ Treatment – Boca Raton

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders cause jaw pain, headaches, clicking, and difficulty chewing. Our oral surgeons evaluate and treat TMJ disorders using a range of approaches from conservative therapy to surgical correction when necessary.

Sinus Lift Surgery & Ridge Augmentation

For patients requiring upper jaw implants, a sinus lift procedure creates additional bone height in the upper jaw. Ridge augmentation restores the natural contour of the jaw after tooth loss. Both procedures prepare your jaw for successful, long-lasting dental implants.

Boca Raton Oral Surgeon FAQs

Can I go directly to an oral surgeon without a referral?

Yes, you can visit our oral surgeons directly, especially in emergency situations. Some insurance plans may require a referral for coverage purposes — our staff can help verify your benefits. At West Boca Dental Care, we have both general dentists and oral surgeons available, so you can receive complete care under one roof without the hassle of multiple offices.

Is it better to have a tooth pulled by a dentist or an oral surgeon?

For straightforward extractions, a general dentist can handle the procedure. However, for complex cases — impacted teeth, teeth near nerves, or cases requiring deeper sedation — an oral surgeon is the right choice. Our team can evaluate your situation and recommend the best approach. Call us at (561) 486-4669.

How much does oral surgery cost in Boca Raton?

The cost varies depending on the procedure, complexity, and your insurance plan. We accept most major insurance plans and offer CareCredit financing. Our office team will verify your coverage and provide a detailed cost estimate before any procedure begins. Call (561) 486-4669 for more information.

What should I eat after oral surgery?

Stick to soft foods such as yogurt, mashed potatoes, smoothies, applesauce, and soup for the first 3–5 days. Avoid hard, crunchy, spicy, or hot foods. Do not use straws, as suction can dislodge the blood clot and cause dry socket. Follow all post-operative instructions provided by your surgeon at West Boca Dental Care.
