Our oral surgery team can perform corrective jaw surgeries to address skeletal and dental discrepancies, improving bite alignment and facial aesthetics.
We at A1 Dental Care Belconnen are prepared to treat knocked-out teeth and other dental emergencies. Our skilled dentists can relieve discomfort and stabilise the condition in a hurry. While a medical referral may be necessary in certain circumstances due to the injury, prompt action improves the likelihood of saving the tooth.
If a tooth gets knocked out, it’s crucial to seek dental care immediately. Handle the tooth by the crown (the visible part in the mouth) and avoid touching the root. If you can’t place the tooth back in its socket, keep it moist in a container of milk or a special solution available at pharmacies. Quick action can help your dentist successfully reinsert the tooth, though further treatment like a root canal may be needed to address nerve and blood vessel damage.
Our oral surgery procedures are performed under local anaesthesia or other sedation options, ensuring that you are comfortable and pain-free during the surgery. After the procedure, some mild discomfort or swelling may be experienced, but this can be managed with pain medication as prescribed by our oral surgery specialist.
The recovery period varies depending on the type of oral surgery performed. Generally, most patients can resume their regular activities within a few days to a week. Our experienced clinicians will provide you with detailed post-operative care instructions to help facilitate a smooth and speedy recovery.
Whether you need a routine extraction or complex oral surgery, our dedicated team at A1 Dental is here to provide the highest level of care. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and take the first step towards a healthy smile and functional bite.
