Oral surgery at Bath Spa Dentistry

Some dental problems, like impacted wisdom teeth or a more complex extraction, need a surgical approach rather than routine treatment.

What is oral surgery?

Oral surgery covers a range of procedures beyond routine dental treatment, most commonly the removal of impacted wisdom teeth that haven't come through properly, or a tooth that's more complex to extract than usual.

How much does oral surgery cost?

Oral surgery resolves a problem properly, rather than letting it cause ongoing pain or complications. Cost can vary depending on the complexity of the procedure and whether sedation is used, but with 0% finance available, you can spread that investment over time (up to 12 months) with no interest to pay.

Your oral surgery journey at Bath Spa Dentistry

Consultation and assessment

We'll assess your tooth and talk through whether oral surgery is needed, including whether sedation would help you feel more comfortable.

Your procedure

Your surgery is carried out under local anaesthetic, with sedation available through an external sedationist if needed.

Aftercare and recovery

You'll leave with clear aftercare guidance, and we're on hand if you have any questions while you recover.

Do I need oral surgery?

You may need oral surgery if you have an impacted wisdom tooth causing pain, swelling or repeated infections, or a tooth that's too complex to remove with a routine extraction.

Your dentist will confirm whether oral surgery is the right approach for you, using an assessment and imaging to plan the safest way forward.
