Oral Surgeon In Bondi

Oral Surgeon

When serious dental issues strike, like impacted wisdom teeth or a sudden dental injury, experience matters. At Bondi Family Dentist, our on-site oral surgeon provides specialist care for complex procedures including wisdom tooth removal, dental implants, prosthetic care, biopsies and surgical extractions.

We deliver seamless, specialist-level care in a friendly environment.

Oral Surgeon Treatments

Wisdom tooth removal

At Bondi Family Dentist, our wisdom tooth removal procedure begins with a thorough initial assessment. Once your oral surgeon finalises treatment, they will offer various methods of sedation and conduct the removal. Your dentist will also provide clear instructions for aftercare and any necessary medication.

Tooth extractions

Prior to extracting teeth, x-rays are required, and sometimes a 3D scan called a CBCT. The practitioner will also conduct a thorough review of your medical history. The oral surgeon numbs the extraction site with local anaesthetic, and if you’re an anxious patient, they will provide further sedation.  They will then remove the tooth and close the area with dissolvable stitches.

 

Prosthetic Care

Whether you’re missing a single tooth or need full-mouth restoration, prosthetic treatment restores both function and appearance. Our oral surgeon works closely with your dentist, who will design and place custom solutions such as crowns, bridges or implant-supported prostheses, all tailored to your specific needs.

Orthodontic-support Surgery

For more complex orthodontic treatment, you may often need additional oral surgery to remove crowded or impacted teeth. We plan such treatment with your long-term needs in mind. Your oral surgeon will carry it out under local anaesthesia.

Biopsies

Bondi Family Dentist’s specialist oral surgeon offers in-house biopsies, enabling the investigation of any suspicious lesion.

Oral Conditions treated

Abscessed teeth

If an infection cannot be resolved with root canal treatment or antibiotics alone, your oral surgeon may perform a surgical extraction to prevent the infection from spreading further. This is typically handled during tooth extractions, with the precise removal of the infected tooth and surrounding tissue, as necessary.

Broken teeth

Severely broken or shattered teeth that cannot be restored are addressed through tooth extractions. Your oral surgeon will assess the extent of the damage and safely remove the remaining root structure, under sedation if needed.

Jawbone loss

When bone density is insufficient for dental implants or prosthetic support, prosthetic care may include preparatory procedures such as bone grafting. This helps rebuild the jaw’s structure and ensures long-term treatment success.

Extensive tooth decay

Tooth extractions may be necessary in cases where decay extends below the gum line or compromises the root. Your oral surgeon aims to preserve natural structure where possible, but will remove irreparable teeth to protect your overall health.

Impacted teeth

Impacted or poorly positioned teeth, including wisdom teeth, are resolved with wisdom tooth removal or orthodontic-support surgery. Your oral surgeon will determine whether extraction is needed immediately or as part of a broader orthodontic plan.

Loose or missing teeth

If a tooth is loose beyond repair or already missing, prosthetic care can restore both function and aesthetics. Your oral surgeon may recommend removal of any compromised teeth, followed by implant placement or prosthetic fitting.

Oral cancer

Suspicious lesions discovered during routine check-ups can be investigated through biopsies. Your oral surgeon will take a tissue sample and coordinate further care based on the diagnosis.

Oral Surgery Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to see an oral surgeon or can a general dentist help?

If your dental issue requires surgical expertise, you’ll be referred internally to our in-house oral surgeon. This ensures you receive advanced care without needing to visit another clinic.

Will I be put to sleep for oral surgery?

It depends on the procedure and your comfort level. 

We offer local anaesthetics such as relative analgesia, “happy gas” for most cases, but IV sedation is available for more complex treatments or anxious patients if required.

Do I need a referral to see your oral surgeon?

No external referral is needed. If your treatment requires it, our team will coordinate everything in-house and schedule you with our oral surgeon directly.

Is the oral surgeon part of the Bondi Family Dentist team?

Yes, our oral surgeon works on-site. This enables seamless communication between your general dentist and the specialist, resulting in faster and more coordinated care.

How long is the recovery after seeing an oral surgeon?

Recovery time depends on the procedure, but we’ll give you detailed aftercare instructions and let you know what to expect before you leave.

Can I drive myself home after oral surgery?

If you’ve had local anaesthetic only, you can usually drive yourself. If you’ve had IV sedation, you’ll need someone to take you home and stay with you for the day.

Is tooth extraction considered oral surgery

Yes, any time a tooth is removed, it falls under the umbrella of oral surgery, although a specialist oral surgeon is not always necessary for that procedure.
