Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral to schedule an appointment?

In some cases, a referral is not necessary, but please feel free to call and discuss with our team whether or not you need a referral. While some patients are referred by their general dentist, many contact us directly when they know they need a procedure like wisdom teeth removal or dental implants.

Is Oral Surgery Painful?

Oral surgery itself is not painful because we use local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia to keep you comfortable during the procedure. Some discomfort is normal afterward, but we provide clear post-operative instructions and medication to manage pain and ensure a smooth recovery.

How are we different from a general dentist?

Oral surgeons are dental specialists with additional hospital-based surgical training. They perform complex procedures such as wisdom teeth removal, dental implants, bone grafting, and treatment for facial trauma or pathology. While general dentists handle routine care, oral surgeons focus on surgical solutions.

does wisdom teeth removal require anesthesia?

At Star Oral Surgery, we offer multiple sedation options to help you feel relaxed and pain-free during your procedure. These include:

 

  • Local anesthesia
  • IV sedation
  • General anesthesia (when appropriate)

We’ll discuss the best option based on your health history, anxiety level, and the type of surgery.
