Removal of Dental Cysts

Teeth need removing for many different reasons, but sometimes it can be because there is a cyst related to the tooth. Cysts can also develop in the jaw where a tooth has been previously extracted. Management of a cyst is usually by careful surgical removal. We then send the cyst of to a pathologist for them to provide an exact diagnosis as to the type of cyst that it was. Different cysts have different long-term management as some types of cysts may be prone to recurrence whereas for most they do not recur. Our team of oral surgeons have thousands of hours of operating experience which enables them to approach cysts in careful and efficient manner for their patients. This helps to reduce procedure time and trauma as well as decreasing the risk of complications during or after surgery.

Our peaceful and relaxed environment here at the centre will allow you to have your surgery in as comfortable an environment as possible. You can lay back and watch a movie on our ceiling-mounted screens tucked in with a warm blanket whilst we perform your surgery which is usually done with a profound local anaesthetic.

I'm nervous of having SURGERY...

We are very aware that the idea of having a surgical procedure can be stressful for people which is why we have worked hard to create as calm and relaxing environment at our clinic as possible. But we do also offer sedation for those patients who need something a little stronger to calm their nerves. To read more about our sedation service please click HERE.

why should I see a specialist and not my general dentist to have my surgery?

Specialist oral surgeons have trained extensively in the art and science of safe and accurate surgery involving the teeth and jaws. Their advanced knowledge and experience in this field helps reduce surgery time as well as decreasing complications during and after surgery. Having spent tens of thousands of hours operating in the mouth you can rest assured you will be in safe hands with any of our team of Specialist Oral Surgeons.

DO I need to be referred to come and see you?

No you do not. Although we do a lot of our surgical procedures for patients who have been referred to us by their dentist, you do not need to be referred to come and see us. Our Specialist Oral Surgeons can be accessed directly without the need for a referral from your dentist. To arrange a consultation please contact us and we would be happy to provide assistance.
