Oral surgery is a broad term for any operation performed on your teeth, gums, jaw or surrounding oral and facial structures. It includes a wide range of procedures, including teeth extractions, dental bone grafts, periodontal (gum) grafts and corrective jaw surgery.

Cysts and tumours of the mouth and jaws are uncommon and can occur at any age. These conditions require specialist management to ensure the best possible functional and aesthetic outcomes. Cysts and tumours of the jaw require an operation to remove the disease. Subsequent operations may be required to achieve dental rehabilitation. This may include bone grafts and dental implants.
