Dr. Adkison and our team provide several types of oral surgery for you and your family, making it easy to get the care you need in one location. You’ll avoid having to take time and spend extra money going to see an oral surgeon for your procedure.

Plus, we offer laughing gas if desired. It will give you a complete feeling of relaxation, taking your mind off your procedure and helping you relax.

All these oral surgery services are available here:

• Tooth Removal – If we’re unable to save your damaged tooth, we’ll gently remove it to stop your pain and prevent further problems.
• Bone Grafts – A bone graft will strengthen your jaw and prepare it for dental implants. Your dentist adds bone material to spur the growth of new cells.
• Sinus Lifts – This special type of bone graft is performed on the upper jaw to make it strong enough for implants.
• Ridge Augmentation – We can add bone and tissue material to your jaw ridge to get it ready for implants or to improve its appearance.
• Gum Grafts – Dr. Adkison will take tissue from one area of your mouth and place it where your gums have receded. This covers unsightly tooth roots, lessens dental sensitivity, and protects you from tooth loss.

If you need oral surgery in Lebanon, trust the team with the experience you want. Call Winwood Dental today at 615-453-8900 for an appointment. You can also request an appointment online.

Common Questions About Oral Surgery

When would I need oral surgery?

There are several circumstances that might require oral surgery. If you or your loved one has a badly damaged or diseased tooth, it may need removal. Other procedures like bone grafts, sinus lifts, and ridge augmentations prepare for treatments such as dental implants. Gum grafts will repair receded gums and help them heal properly.

When is oral surgery covered by insurance?

Many insurance plans pay for at least a portion of oral surgery. So you know what to expect beforehand, we recommend checking with your individual plan to find out what is and isn’t covered. To help with your portion of the cost, we offer third-party financing through CareCredit, which has attractive rates and payment options.

When can I exercise after oral surgery?

For the first 24 hours after your oral surgery, you should not exercise at all. Doing too much too fast can actually create problems and prolong healing. Overexertion can loosen the blood clot from an extraction site and cause a painful condition known as dry socket. After the first 24 hours, limit your exercise to low-impact activities for several more days.
