What You Need To Know
Oral Surgery Handled In-House, From Extractions to Grafting
When a dental problem goes beyond what a filling or a cleaning can fix, surgery is sometimes the right answer, and for most patients it is far more comfortable than they expect. At Estrada Dentistry, Dr. Jaime Estrada performs a range of oral surgery procedures for patients across Pasco County, from routine extractions to wisdom teeth removal and bone grafting that prepares the way for implants. Sedation is available for every procedure, so you can stay relaxed from start to finish.
What Kinds of Dental Surgery Do We Offer?
Dental surgery covers any procedure that treats a problem below the surface or rebuilds the foundation your teeth rely on. The most common reasons patients come to us are a tooth that can no longer be saved, wisdom teeth that are crowding or stuck, or the need to strengthen the jawbone before placing an implant. Dr. Estrada handles these in-house with modern technology and a careful, unhurried approach, which means fewer referrals and one dentist who follows your care the whole way through.
- Tooth Extractions: When a tooth is too damaged, decayed, or infected to repair, gently removing it protects the teeth around it and ends the pain.
- Wisdom Teeth Removal: Wisdom teeth that come in at an angle or get stuck below the gum can crowd, infect, and ache. Removing them early usually makes the whole process simpler.
- Bone Grafting: For patients who want implants but have lost bone in the jaw, a graft rebuilds that foundation so an implant has something solid to anchor to.
- Implant Placement: Dr. Estrada places the titanium post that replaces a missing tooth from the root up, then restores it with a natural looking crown.
What Should I Expect During and After Surgery?
Every procedure starts with an exam and, when needed, an X-ray so Dr. Estrada can see exactly what he is working with and plan accordingly. On the day of your surgery, the area is fully numbed so you feel pressure but not pain, and you can add sedation if you would feel more at ease. Afterward you head home with clear, easy-to-follow instructions covering what to eat, how to keep the area clean, and how to manage any soreness. Most patients find recovery from a routine extraction takes only a few days, and we are a phone call away if anything comes up.
Staying Comfortable Through Your Procedure
Nobody should put off surgery they need because they are afraid of the chair. We offer nitrous oxide, oral sedation, and IV sedation so your procedure feels calm rather than stressful, and Dr. Estrada helps you choose the right level based on your health history and how involved the surgery will be. From the first numbing to the last check before you leave, keeping you comfortable is the priority.
Why Patients Trust Estrada Dentistry With Surgery
Dr. Estrada brings over 30 years of experience to every procedure, and because he handles both the surgery and the restoration himself, your care does not get split between a surgeon and a separate dentist. You get a clear explanation of what is happening, a treatment plan built around your specific situation, and complete care under one roof from the first consultation through your follow-up. As a family owned practice, we keep quality care accessible, and we accept PPO insurance and Medicare along with CareCredit financing so getting the treatment you need stays within reach.

What Affects the Cost of Oral Surgery
Every surgical case is different, so the investment depends on what the procedure involves. These are the main factors Dr. Estrada talks through with you.
- The procedure itself A simple extraction is different from a surgical extraction, impacted wisdom teeth, or surgery to prepare for implants.
- How many teeth are involved Removing one tooth is a smaller plan than removing several wisdom teeth in a single visit.
- Complexity of the case A tooth that is impacted or sitting near a nerve takes more care than a straightforward one, and that shapes the plan.
- Sedation and comfort options The kind of sedation you choose for the procedure is part of the picture, and we settle on it together beforehand.
We accept PPO insurance and Medicare, and we offer CareCredit financing so surgery is easier to plan for. Because Dr. Estrada handles your care in-house from start to finish, you get one clear plan rather than a string of referrals.
Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Surgery
Recovery time varies depending on the procedure. Simple extractions may heal in a few days, while more complex surgeries like wisdom tooth removal typically take about a week for initial healing.
For the first few days, stick to soft foods like yogurt, mashed potatoes, smoothies, and soup. Avoid hot, spicy, or crunchy foods until the surgical site has healed.
Some discomfort is normal after dental surgery. Dr. Estrada will prescribe appropriate pain medication and provide detailed aftercare instructions to help manage any discomfort.
