Enjoy a Healthy Smile With Dental Surgery

Even though you may not like thinking about having surgery on your mouth, this type of care is sometimes necessary to maintain your dental health. You can count on the team at Skyview Dental for comfortable care if you need dental surgery. We'll keep your needs in mind at all times and listen carefully to your concerns. You don't need an oral surgeon for top-quality treatment.

We offer several types of oral surgery:

  • Bone Grafts - We will place a material in your jaw to stimulate the growth of new bone cells and prepare you for dental implants.
  • Sinus Lifts - This procedure is a type of bone graft designed to make room for implants on your upper jaw.
  • Ridge Augmentation - Dr. Despain can build up your jaw ridge either in preparation for implants or for esthetic purposes.

Remove Wisdom Teeth Before They Cause Bigger Issues

Wisdom teeth are your third set of molars. While they may not give you problems at all, they can also cause crowding, discomfort, or infection as these teeth emerge. At Skyview Dental, Dr. Despain offers in-house wisdom tooth removal with comfort, convenience, and safety in mind. With this procedure, you will:

  • Prevent Pain and Crowding - Impacted or partially erupted wisdom teeth can shift your other teeth out of alignment. Removing them early protects your overall bite.
  • Lower Risk of Infection - When wisdom teeth only partially erupt, they can trap bacteria and food particles, increasing the risk of painful infections or cysts.
  • Have a Comfortable Experience - With multiple sedation options available, including oral sedation and IV sedation, you can stay relaxed and calm throughout your wisdom teeth extraction.
  • Benefit From Advanced Imaging - We use low-dose 3-D digital X-rays to assess your wisdom teeth's position and ensure a smooth, precise extraction.
  • Avoid the Hassle of a Referral - Dr. Despain performs the entire procedure in-house, saving you time and hassle by avoiding outside specialists.

Expect Top-Quality Results Thanks to Our Advanced Technology

Your surgery will go smoothly thanks to Dr. Despain's experience and his investment in state-of-the-art technology. To plan your treatment and ensure a successful outcome, your dentist will use:

  • Digital X-rays to capture images of your mouth to plan and help you understand our treatment recommendations
  • Our CEREC technology for same-day crowns or bridges if you need to replace an extracted tooth
  • Digital scanning to capture impressions of your teeth without messy trays of goop
  • Intraoral cameras so you can see what we see during your examination

You can request sedation to relax during the procedure. You can also wear headphones to block out sounds of our equipment.

I love this place. That's not easy to say because I dislike going to the dentist extremely!! That being said my experience has been a 10 the whole time.

That's not easy to say because I dislike going to the dentist extremely!! That being said my experience has been a 10 the whole time. I went to Mexico to get implants done a full set. It was terrible. The worst decision of my life. Since the process was only half done I came home thinking what now? I had implants in but no teeth and had 4 months of healing to do. I came to Skyview scared to continue but I had to finish the journey if I was to ever smile or eat again. DR Despain was a life saver. The office staff were so warm and kind, the Dr was gentle and understanding. Every time I came, there was nothing but smiles and I was always addressed with my name. I am so happy with my teeth and the kindness that I was shown. I recommend anyone who is scared and hate the dentist go to Skyview they will change your mind!!

Sorry for the long one but This Dental TEAM deserves it. I wasn’t raised with the best dental hygiene, and over the years I’ve had just about every bad dental experience you can imagine.

I wasn’t raised with the best dental hygiene, and over the years I’ve had just about every bad dental experience you can imagine. I’ve always related to the saying, “what can go wrong, will go wrong” when it came to dentist visits. My mouth isn’t in the best shape, and I have extremely high dental anxiety — to the point that I’ve actually passed out many times during procedurs. Because of that, it’s been really hard to keep up with or even try to fix the mess I felt stuck with. Recently, a tooth that was already broken lost another corner, leaving me with basically half a tooth. While waiting for that appointment, a cavity on the other side of my mouth popped out, again what can go wrong will go wrong.I was terrified about the upcoming procedure because putting me under usually costs too much — and that’s the only way I’ve ever been able to get through treatment. But the oral sedation they used was amazing. For the first time ever, I felt like I was actually part of my dental care without being fully aware of every detail. The team was kind, gentle, and patient. I got same-day crowns that look fantastic, and when I see them, I actually want to smile. For someone like me, who’s always dreaded the dentist, this was honestly the best experience I’ve ever had. I finally have hope for my future dental health, and I’m so grateful to this team for giving me that.

Commonly Asked 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. Likewise, wisdom teeth often cause problems as they emerge and need to be extracted. 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?
Your dental insurance or medical insurance may cover a portion of your oral surgery. We recommend you check with your individual carriers to find out what they will and won't pay for before you have any work done. That way there aren't any big surprises in store for you. As a convenience, we offer third-party financing through several companies.
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.
