What Happens During Oral Surgery: Step-by-Step
- 1
Pre-Surgery Assessment & Anaesthesia
10–15 minutesYour surgeon will review X-rays, discuss your medical history, and position you comfortably. Local anaesthesia is applied to numb the area; if you've chosen sedation, the IV will be placed now. You will feel pressure but no pain.
- 2
Incision & Bone Access (if surgical extraction)
15–30 minutesFor impacted teeth, the surgeon makes a small incision in the gum and carefully removes bone to access the tooth. You will feel vibration and hear drilling sounds but experience no pain. Local anaesthesia is re-applied if needed.
- 3
Tooth Removal & Socket Cleaning
10–20 minutesUsing elevators and forceps, the surgeon gently rocks and removes the tooth. The empty socket is then cleaned of any bone fragments or infection. Bleeding is managed with gauze and gentle suctioning.
- 4
Closure & Post-Op Instructions
5–10 minutesIf an incision was made, dissolvable stitches are placed. Gauze is packed into the socket. You receive written post-op care instructions, prescribed antibiotics, and pain relief medications. Most surgeons schedule a follow-up in 7 days.
- 5
Recovery & Discharge
30–45 minutes (in clinic)You rest in the recovery area (15–30 minutes if sedated). A responsible adult should collect you if sedation was used. Ice packs, elevation, and pain medication are your main tools for the first 48 hours. Swelling typically peaks on day 2 and improves by day 5.
Am I a Good Candidate for Oral Surgery?
Good candidates
- Patients with impacted wisdom teeth causing pain, infection, or damage to neighbouring teeth
- Those with severely decayed teeth unsuitable for root canal therapy and extraction is the best option
- Patients needing biopsy of a mouth lesion or lump to rule out serious pathology
- People with jaw or bite problems (malocclusion) that require orthognathic (corrective jaw) surgery
May need extra assessment
- Patients on blood thinners (warfarin, aspirin) or with uncontrolled diabetes—require blood work and anaesthesia review to minimise bleeding risk
- Those with severe anxiety or dental phobia—sedation and psychological counselling options must be discussed with your surgeon beforehand
- Patients with heart conditions, sleep apnea, or respiratory issues—require clearance from your GP and careful sedation planning
