About minor oral surgery
Minor oral surgery covers smaller procedures in the mouth. The most common is removing a wisdom tooth that is stuck (impacted) in the gum or bone. It is also used for teeth that are badly broken down, and for some other small procedures your dentist may recommend.
Your dentist will take an X-ray to plan the procedure. If your case needs a specialist or hospital care, your dentist will refer you.
