Do you require oral surgery? For a majority of patients, the answer to this question might not be very obvious. You may need oral surgery for many different conditions, and these surgeries are mostly just one out of many treatment options.

Getting an oral surgery consultation from an expert oral surgeon can help you weigh your options and choice the best option for your oral health. Here are a few reasons that you may need to get an oral surgery consultation.

If Your Dentist Has Suggested Oral Surgery

Your dentist recommending you to get an oral surgery consultation is probably one of the most obvious reasons for you to get one. Your dentist may have spotted a dental concern in your mouth that they believe can be fixed through oral surgery. There are various oral surgeries out there for patients with different needs. Getting a consultation from an oral surgeon can help you learn more about the treatment you require.

If You Experience Consistent Tooth Pain

If your persistent tooth pain is not due to regular sensitivity, then you probably need oral surgery. An oral surgeon will take dental x-rays to examine your tooth, and determine the root cause of the pain during a consultation. This allows them to make the best possible recommendation for your problem.

If You've Experienced Facial Trauma

There are many surgical options out there to help restore the appearance and functionality of your teeth, jaw, and gums in case you've experienced facial trauma. It is necessary to get an oral surgery consultation after a traumatic event so that you can plan reconstructive work with an expert, and recover as soon as possible.
