What Are Dental Implants?
Oral surgery is a specialised branch of dentistry involving the diagnosis and surgical treatment of diseases, injuries, and conditions affecting the teeth, gums, and jawbone. At Fitzroy Dental Practice, we combine clinical expertise with advanced techniques to restore your oral health, function, and confidence.
Oral surgery can also offer aesthetic improvements and address both hard and soft tissue problems. It is frequently recommended for patients with complex dental conditions that cannot be treated with conventional methods.

What to Expect from Oral Surgery
At Fitzroy Dental Practice, implant treatment is carried out by experienced clinicians using CT scans, X-rays, and precision planning to ensure the best outcomes.
Pain Management
Modern oral surgery is minimally painful. Local anaesthetic ensures procedures are virtually pain-free, and post-operative discomfort is mild and manageable with over-the-counter painkillers. Nervous patients can opt for intravenous sedation administered by our highly experienced anaesthetists.
Recovery Time
Mild discomfort or swelling is common for a few days after surgery. Most patients fully recover within one to two weeks, depending on the procedure and individual healing.
Post-Operative Care
Apply ice packs to reduce swelling
Consume soft foods and liquids for several days (soups, yogurts, smoothies, mashed potatoes)
Avoid strenuous exercise for three days
Refrain from hot drinks until numbness from anaesthetic wears off
Avoid acidic, chewy, or crunchy foods during healing
Eating After Surgery
Do not eat immediately after surgery while your mouth is numb. Once the anaesthetic wears off, start with soft foods for several days to prevent injury or irritation to the surgical site.
Benefits of Oral Surgery
Oral surgery can be essential when:
Conventional treatments cannot resolve the dental issue
Teeth are damaged, decayed, or impacted
Patients have anxiety or medical conditions that require specialised care
Missing teeth need implants to support dentures or bridges
Progressive issues such as cysts, lumps, or infections require timely intervention
Surgery can prevent further deterioration, restore oral function, and improve aesthetics. At Fitzroy Dental Practice, we assess every patient individually and only recommend surgery when it is in their best interest.
