Precision Care for Your Smile
Our Oral Surgery Services
At Valor Dental, we offer advanced oral surgery services to meet your diverse dental needs.
Extractions
We perform tooth extractions when a tooth is too damaged to be saved or needs to be removed for orthodontic reasons. Our gentle techniques and sedation options ensure a comfortable experience and promote swift healing.
Dental Implant Placement
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. This procedure provides a strong foundation for permanent or removable replacement teeth, offering a natural-looking and long-lasting solution for tooth loss.
Bone Grafts
Bone grafting is used to rebuild or strengthen areas of the jawbone that have deteriorated. This procedure is often necessary before dental implant placement or to support existing teeth, ensuring a strong foundation for your smile.
Sinus Lifts
A sinus lift is a surgical procedure that adds bone to your upper jaw in the area of your molars and premolars. It's often performed when there isn't enough bone height in the upper jaw for dental implants.
Alveoloplasty
Alveoloplasty is a surgical procedure to smooth and reshape the jawbone after tooth extraction. This procedure is often performed to prepare the mouth for dentures or to correct irregular jawbone contours that could interfere with proper denture fit.
Tori Removal
Tori are benign bony growths in the mouth that can interfere with proper denture fit or cause discomfort. We can surgically remove these growths to improve oral comfort and function, enhancing your overall oral health.
Wisdom Teeth Extractions
We specialize in removing wisdom teeth, the third molars that often cause problems due to lack of space. Whether impacted or partially erupted, we can safely extract these teeth to prevent pain, infection, and other dental complications.

While oral surgery may sound intimidating, we use advanced techniques and appropriate anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure and manageable post-operative pain that can be controlled with prescribed or over-the-counter pain medications.
Recovery time varies depending on the procedure and individual healing factors. Most patients can return to normal activities within a few days to a week. However, complete healing, especially for procedures like implant placement, may take several months.
