Our PatientsAdvanced Surgical Care, Thoughtfully Planned
Dental surgery often plays a critical role when restorative or cosmetic treatment alone is not sufficient. Using advanced diagnostics and 3D imaging, we identify underlying structural issues and address them with carefully sequenced surgical solutions.
Every procedure is planned in the context of your overall oral health, bite alignment, and future restorative goals.
Surgical Services Offered at DGY Dentistry
Dental surgery combines clinical skill, advanced imaging, and specialized training to solve problems that general restorative care cannot address. DGY Dentistry delivers surgical care with attention to comfort, function, and long-term outcomes.
Dental Implants
Dental implants replace missing teeth by anchoring a titanium post within the jawbone, creating a stable foundation for a custom crown or bridge. Implants restore chewing function, preserve bone, and integrate naturally with the surrounding teeth. They are often the preferred solution for single or multiple missing teeth when long-term stability is a priority.
Tooth Extractions
When a tooth is severely damaged, infected, or no longer predictable to restore, extraction may be recommended. Whether a simple extraction or surgical removal is required, procedures are performed with precision and attention to comfort. Comprehensive aftercare guidance supports proper healing and prepares the area for future restoration when needed.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting rebuilds areas of jawbone that have diminished due to tooth loss, infection, or trauma. Restoring bone volume creates a stable foundation for dental implants and helps maintain facial structure and support. Grafting is often an essential preparatory step for long-term restorative success.
Sinus Lift Surgery
A sinus lift increases bone height in the upper back jaw when natural bone volume is insufficient for implant placement. By gently elevating the sinus membrane and placing bone graft material, this procedure allows implants to be placed securely in areas that would otherwise be limited.
Gum Grafting
Gum grafting restores receded gum tissue to protect exposed tooth roots, reduce sensitivity, and improve overall balance and aesthetics. Grafts may be taken from the patient or a donor source and are carefully integrated to support long-term gum health.

Frequently Asked Questions
Procedures are performed with local anesthetic and, when appropriate, sedation to maintain comfort. Some swelling or soreness is normal after surgery and is typically managed with prescribed or over-the-counter medication and ice therapy.
Recovery varies depending on the procedure. Simple extractions often heal within one to two weeks, while implant placement and bone grafting require longer healing periods. Specific timelines are reviewed before treatment.
Many surgical procedures—such as extractions, bone grafting, and some implant-related care—are partially covered by dental insurance. Coverage varies by plan. We review benefits and provide transparent estimates prior to surgery.
You will receive detailed instructions before surgery regarding medications, eating, and preparation. After treatment, we provide clear guidance for rest, hygiene, and healing. Most patients return to daily activities within a few days, depending on the procedure.
