Common Questions About Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
The procedure itself is performed under local anaesthesia or sedation, so you shouldn't feel pain during surgery, though some soreness is normal afterward.
This depends on the procedure — minor surgery may need just a few days, while more complex cases can take a week or more.
Not always — many procedures are comfortably done under local anaesthesia, though sedation can be offered for more complex or anxiety-inducing cases.
This includes impacted teeth, jaw cysts, facial trauma, and other conditions affecting the teeth, jaw or soft tissue.
