How Oral Surgery Works — Step-by-Step Timeline
- 1
Consultation & imaging
20–30 minutesYour dentist examines the tooth or lesion and takes X-rays or CBCT scans to assess the position, bone structure, and proximity to nerves. This determines whether a simple or surgical extraction is needed and informs your sedation options.
- 2
Pre-operative assessment & consent
10–15 minutesYou'll discuss the surgical plan, recovery expectations, risks (dry socket, temporary nerve tingling, swelling), and cost. If choosing sedation, a quick medical history and vitals check ensures safety. You'll sign consent and receive pre-operative instructions (fasting if sedation is used).
- 3
Surgical extraction or procedure
15–45 minutes (simple to complex cases)Local anaesthesia is administered to numb the area. The surgeon gently elevates the tooth using specialized instruments; if impacted, a small amount of bone may be removed to access the tooth. For biopsies, tissue is carefully harvested. For jaw surgery, the procedure is more involved and may require hospital theatre.
- 4
Closure & immediate aftercare
10 minutesThe socket is cleaned and sutured if needed. You'll bite on gauze to control bleeding and receive detailed post-operative care instructions: ice for 24 hours, avoid vigorous rinsing, soft diet for 1 week, and pain management guidance. A follow-up appointment is booked.
- 5
Recovery monitoring & follow-up
Ongoing; first follow-up at 7–10 daysYou'll rest at home with pain control (paracetamol or ibuprofen as advised). Swelling peaks at 48–72 hours, then subsides over 1–2 weeks. Your clinic will check for complications like dry socket or infection. Sutures are removed at 7–10 days. Full bone healing takes 3–6 months.
Are You a Candidate for Oral Surgery? — Common Scenarios Explained
Good candidates
- Adults with impacted or partially erupted wisdom teeth causing pain, infection, or crowding — surgical removal is the definitive solution
- Patients with severely decayed or broken teeth below the gum line that cannot be salvaged with fillings or crowns — extraction is necessary
- Anyone with a suspicious lesion, lump, or ulcer in the mouth lasting more than 2 weeks — biopsy is needed to rule out pathology
- People with jaw misalignment (underbite, overbite) affecting chewing or sleep, where conservative options have failed — orthognathic (corrective jaw) surgery is considered
May need extra assessment
- If you have uncontrolled diabetes, bleeding disorders, or take blood thinners — your surgeon will coordinate with your doctor to manage risk and timing
- If you have anxiety or needle phobia — discuss sedation options (nitrous oxide, IV sedation, or general anaesthesia) at your consultation to ensure comfort
- If you have a history of dry socket, delayed healing, or are a heavy smoker — your surgeon will recommend preventive measures and strict post-operative care protocols
