Frequently Asked Questions

Arrow

What types of surgical procedures does an oral surgeon perform?

As a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon in Brunswick, Dr. Mattox performs a comprehensive range of procedures including wisdom teeth removal, dental implant placement, jaw surgeries, facial trauma treatment, TMJ disorders, and surgical orthodontics. Our surgical expertise extends to complex procedures like bone grafting, sinus lifts, and management of oral pathology.

How do I know if I need to see an oral surgeon versus a general dentist?

While general dentists provide essential dental care, oral surgeons have specialized training for complex procedures. You may need an oral surgeon if you require wisdom teeth extraction, have complex tooth loss, need jaw surgery, face TMJ issues, or require treatment for facial trauma. Your dentist may also refer you to our Brunswick practice for specialized surgical care.

What type of anesthesia is used for oral surgery procedures?

We offer various levels of anesthesia tailored to your procedure and comfort needs. Options include local anesthesia, conscious sedation, and general anesthesia. Dr. Mattox’s dual medical-dental training ensures safe administration and monitoring throughout your procedure.

How long is the recovery process after oral surgery?

Recovery time varies depending on the procedure and individual healing factors. Most patients return to normal activities within a few days to a week after minor procedures. For more complex surgeries, we provide detailed recovery guidelines and follow-up care at our Brunswick facility to ensure optimal healing.

Does insurance cover oral surgery procedures?

Insurance coverage for oral surgery varies by plan. While our practice is out-of-network, we gladly file insurance claims on your behalf to help maximize your reimbursement. Our experienced team guides you through the process so you can focus on receiving the care you need.
