Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in Markham

Specialized Surgical Care for Complex Dental and Facial Needs

Understanding Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery?

Expert Surgical Care for Facial, Oral, and Jaw Conditions

Oral and maxillofacial surgery represents one of dentistry’s most specialized fields, focused on surgical treatment of conditions affecting the face, mouth, jaw, and surrounding structures. This advanced branch of surgical dentistry addresses both functional issues like impacted teeth and jaw misalignment as well as reconstructive needs following trauma or disease.

These surgical specialists complete rigorous training beyond dental school—typically 4-6 years of hospital-based surgical residency. During this intensive period, they train alongside medical residents in anesthesiology, general surgery, internal medicine, and other specialties. This comprehensive medical and dental education uniquely qualifies them to perform complex procedures involving both hard tissues (bone) and soft tissues of the entire maxillofacial region. Patients in Markham can access this specialized care through referrals from Oasis Orthodontics when surgical intervention becomes necessary for optimal treatment outcomes.

Common Oral Surgery Procedures

Trusted Oral Surgery Solutions for Lasting Dental Health

Wisdom Teeth Extraction

Third molars (wisdom teeth) often become impacted due to insufficient space in the jaw. Our surgical team expertly removes problematic wisdom teeth to prevent pain, infection, crowding, and damage to adjacent teeth. Early removal during the teenage years or young adulthood ensures optimal healing and prevents future complications.

Dental Implant Placement

We offer surgical placement of dental implants—titanium posts that serve as artificial tooth roots. These implants provide a strong foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. Through osseointegration (fusion with jawbone), implants prevent bone loss and provide long-lasting tooth replacement solutions.

Corrective Jaw Surgery

For patients with severe misalignment between the upper and lower jaws, orthognathic surgery can dramatically improve function and appearance. This procedure corrects issues that cannot be addressed with orthodontics alone, improving chewing function, speech, breathing, and facial balance.

Treatment of Facial Trauma

Our surgical specialists are experts in treating facial injuries including fractured jaws, broken facial bones, and soft tissue lacerations. We provide emergency care and reconstructive procedures to restore both function and appearance following accidents or injuries.

TMJ Surgery

When conservative treatments fail to resolve severe TMJ disorders, surgical intervention may be necessary. Our specialists offer both arthroscopic and open joint procedures to address persistent jaw pain, restricted movement, and joint damage.

Oral Pathology and Biopsy

We diagnose and treat diseases of the mouth, including oral cancer. Our team performs thorough examinations and biopsies of suspicious tissue to ensure accurate diagnosis and timely treatment of potentially serious conditions.

During your consultation, we'll determine whether surgical intervention is necessary.

Recovery varies by procedure. Simple extractions may require only a few days, while jaw surgery can take several weeks for initial recovery and months for complete healing. We provide specific timeline expectations for your particular procedure.

Many insurance plans provide coverage for medically necessary oral surgery procedures. Our administrative team helps verify your coverage and explain any out-of-pocket costs before treatment begins.
