Oral Surgery in Oakville

Oral Surgery in Oakville | Sol Dental

When a tooth can’t be saved with a simple filling or crown — or when one is causing pain, infection, or crowding — oral surgery becomes the kindest, most effective option. Oakville oral surgery at Sol Dental is designed around one priority: making the process as gentle, safe, and stress-free as modern dentistry allows.

Whether you need a tooth extracted, your wisdom teeth removed, or a root canal to save a damaged tooth, our experienced team handles every step with care, precision, and clear communication.

What Is Oral Surgery?

Oral surgery refers to any dental procedure that involves cutting, removing, or surgically treating teeth, gums, or jawbone. While the word “surgery” can sound intimidating, the vast majority of oral surgery procedures are routine — performed under local anesthesia, completed in a single visit, and followed by a smooth recovery.

At Sol Dental, our oral surgery in Oakville focuses on three core procedures: root canal treatment, wisdom tooth extractions, and general tooth extractions.

Sedation and Comfort Options

Whatever the procedure, your comfort comes first. Depending on the complexity of your case and your anxiety level, we offer:
  • Local Anesthesia: Numbs the treatment area for a comfortable procedure.
  • Nitrous Oxide: Gentle sedation that helps you relax with a quick recovery.
  • Oral Sedation: Pill-based medication for a deeper level of relaxation.
  • IV Sedation: Ideal for longer or more complex dental procedures.
We’ll talk through every option during your consultation and recommend the one that fits you best.

Our Oral Surgery Services

Root Canal Treatment

A root canal removes infected tissue, cleans and seals the tooth, and restores it with a filling or crown. This treatment relieves pain while helping save your natural tooth.

Wisdom Tooth Extractions

Wisdom teeth can become impacted and cause pain, infection, or crowding. Gentle extraction helps prevent complications and protects your long-term oral health.

Tooth Extractions

When a tooth cannot be saved due to severe decay, infection, or damage, gentle extraction helps relieve pain and protect your overall oral health.

What to Expect During Recovery

Recovery from oral surgery in Oakville is usually faster than patients expect, but a few simple habits make all the difference:
  • Day 1: Bite gently on gauze, apply ice packs, and avoid straws, smoking, or vigorous rinsing.
  • Days 2–3: Swelling may peak. Eat soft foods like yogurt, soup, and mashed potatoes.
  • Days 4–7: Most patients feel better. Resume normal eating gradually and rinse gently with saltwater.
  • Beyond a Week: The extraction site continues healing, and any dissolvable stitches will disappear naturally.
