What Is Oral Surgery?
Oral surgery refers to surgical procedures performed in or around the mouth and jaw. These are usually needed when problems go beyond what can be handled with routine dental care — such as impacted teeth, infections, cysts, or bone issues. Our team is trained in delivering these procedures with minimal discomfort and excellent results.

At Frederick Street Dental Care, we provide:
1. Surgical Wisdom Tooth Removal. For impacted, infected, or partially erupted wisdom teeth causing pain or crowding.
2. Complex Tooth Extractions. When simple extractions aren’t possible due to curved roots, bone issues, or deep decay.
3. Dental Cyst Removal. Safe removal of fluid-filled cysts around impacted teeth or jawbone areas.
4. Apicectomy (Root-End Surgery). Treatment for infections that remain after a root canal.
5. Frenectomy. Surgical correction of tongue-tie or lip-tie conditions (especially in children).
6. Biopsies. Tissue sampling for any suspicious lumps, sores, or patches in the mouth.
