Oral Surgery

There are some instances in which your child may require oral surgery, and our caring and kid-friendly team at Kids Care Dental is here to make the experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible for both you and your kiddo.

Wisdom teeth can cause your child pain, swelling, bad breath, difficulty chewing, and ear pain. Sometimes, wisdom teeth can even cause dental problems that need further treatment, such as impaction, tooth decay, and dentigerous cysts. Waiting too long can negatively impact your child’s oral health, so trust our expert team for your oral surgery needs.

Let’s talk about your child’s oral surgery needs. Give us a call at (916) 830-1666 today.

A Closer Look at the Wisdom Teeth Extraction Process

Our experts will make the extraction process as comfortable as possible. This routine procedure can last up to an hour-and-a-half, and may involve administering oral surgery anesthesia for comfort. After surgery, your child may feel a little dizzy as the anesthesia wears off. We will provide your child with medication to help manage any discomfort and to facilitate healing.

Here are some additional tips for helping ensure a smooth recovery after wisdom tooth removal:

  • Limit your child’s activity, especially during the first few days after surgery.
  • Feed only soft foods such as yogurt and applesauce during the healing period.
  • Make sure your kiddo gets plenty of rest.
  • If any abnormal or worrisome symptoms arise, be sure to contact your doctor right away.

We are prepared to help you with post-operative care. In addition to our oral surgery services, we also offer sedation dentistry, orthodontics, preventive care and more. With our help, your child will maintain a healthy and happy smile.
