Oral Surgery

Advanced Oral Surgery for a Wide Range of Needs

Oral surgery is a specialized area of dentistry focused on the diagnosis and surgical treatment of conditions affecting the mouth, teeth, jaws, and surrounding facial structures. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons complete additional years of advanced surgical training beyond dental school, preparing them to perform a wide range of procedures involving both functional and corrective care.

Advanced Solutions for Complex Oral Health Needs

At Midwest Surgery Center of Kansas City, our team provides comprehensive surgical care for patients of all ages. We can perform many different types of surgical procedures, ranging from routine extractions to complex facial reconstruction. Depending on a patient's needs, treatment may involve the teeth, gums, jawbones, or facial structures.


Common oral surgery procedures include:

  • Removal of impacted teeth, including wisdom teeth
  • Tooth extractions
  • Dental implant placement
  • Gum and bone grafting procedures
  • Corrective jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery)
  • Repair of jaw and facial injuries
  • Treatment of oral growths, cysts, and tumors
  • Procedures to address facial abnormalities or developmental conditions

Your general dentist may refer you for oral surgery when a dental condition requires specialized surgical training, advanced equipment, or anesthesia. For example, wisdom teeth that are impacted in the jawbone may require surgical removal to prevent pain, infection, or damage to nearby teeth.



Patients may also be referred for procedures such as dental implants, complex tooth extractions, jaw-related concerns, or other conditions involving the mouth and facial structures. Your dentist and surgical provider will work together to determine the best treatment plan for your individual needs.
