Oral Surgery Procedures

Dental Implants Lisle IL

Dental Implants are the most predictable and natural form of tooth replacement. Dental implants are changing the way people live. They are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth which look, feel and function like natural teeth.

Implants also help preserve facial structure, preventing the bone deterioration that occurs when teeth are missing.

What are dental Implants?

The implants themselves are tiny titanium posts which are inserted into the jawbone where teeth are missing. These metal anchors act as tooth root substitutes.

The Surgical Procedure

For most patients, the placement of dental implants involves two surgical procedures. The entire procedure usually takes six to eight months. Most patients experience minimal disruption in their daily life.

Call Dr. Alan Forfar to schedule an consultation appointment to see if you are a candidate for dental implants.

Wisdom Teeth Removal Lisle IL

Each tooth in the mouth has a specific name and function. Third Molars are also known as "wisdom teeth."

Why Should I Remove My Wisdom Teeth?

Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to erupt within the mouth. When they align properly and gum tissue is healthy, wisdom teeth do not have to be removed. Unfortunately, this does not generally happen.

The extraction of wisdom teeth is necessary when they are prevented from properly erupting within the mouth. These poorly positioned impacted teeth can cause many problems.

Removal of the offending impacted tooth or teeth usually resolves these problems. Early removal is recommended to avoid any future problems and to decrease the surgical risk involved with the procedure.

Wisdom Teeth Evaluation

With a complete oral examination , Dr. Forfar can evaluate the position of the wisdom teeth and predict if there may be present or future problems. Studies have shown that early evaluation and treatment result in a superior outcome for the patient.

Orthognathic (Jaw) Surgery Lisle IL

Who Needs Orthognathic Surgery?

People who can benefit from orthognathic surgery include those with an improper bite or jaws that are positioned incorrectly. Jaw growth is a gradual process and in some instances, the upper and lower jaws may grow at different rates.

Orthodontics alone can correct bite problems when only the teeth are involved. Orthognathic surgery may be required for the jaws when they need repositioning.

Before any treatment begins, a consultation will be held to perform a complete examination with x-rays.

If you are a candidate for Corrective Jaw Surgery, Dr. Forfar will work closely with your dentist and orthodontist during your treatment. The actual surgery can move your teeth and jaws into a new position that results in a more attractive, functional and healthy dental-facial relationship.
