If you’re experiencing gum, tooth, or jaw pain that’s keeping you up at night or preventing you from eating, it’s time to schedule a visit with an oral surgeon near you. If you’ve incurred visible damage to your teeth or notice any are loose, scheduling a prompt oral surgery consultation can prevent complications. Likewise, persistent pain, swelling, or signs of infection near the third molars could mean it’s time for wisdom tooth extraction.
Whether you’ve been struggling with severely decayed or missing teeth or looking for affordable wisdom tooth extractions, you’ve found the right practice. At Shasta Family Dentistry, our team is dedicated to helping you resume a healthy, pain-free, and happy life as soon as possible with caring and skilled oral surgery in Redding, CA, and Palo Cedro, CA!

When you visit our practice for any oral surgery procedure, you’ll receive individualized attention and courteous, timely service in an unhurried and relaxed atmosphere. To ease your worries and make your journey to renewed oral health even more relaxing, you can choose from three types of conscious sedation to fit your needs.
If a tooth is too damaged to save, extraction is often the best option to prevent the spread of infection and eliminate discomfort. During a standard tooth extraction procedure, we numb the area first. When pulling the tooth, we’re careful not to disturb healthy bone or gum tissue. We’ll provide aftercare instructions to ensure your recovery progresses as it should.
Wisdom teeth often can’t fully erupt because there isn’t adequate space at the back of the mouth. An impacted wisdom tooth and the surrounding soft tissue may become inflamed, painful, infected, decayed, or even impact adjacent teeth. When still embedded in the gums, small incisions need to be made first to access and remove wisdom teeth. We may cut the tooth into smaller parts to make wisdom tooth extraction in Redding, CA, and Palo Cedro, CA, more accessible and less invasive.
If you’ve lost a tooth, the underlying bone gets reabsorbed, resulting in rapid and progressive bone loss. The essential requirement for the placement of a dental implant is adequate bone height and thickness. In preparation for dental implants, we may recommend a minor bone grafting procedure to ensure a successful implant outcome.
The maxillary sinus dips downwards in the back part of your upper jaw (posterior maxilla), reducing the amount of bone in the area. A sinus lift may be required to create adequate height for implant surgery if you get dental implants. Typically, new bone in this area takes four to 12 months to grow before implants are placed.
Whether you’re missing one, several, or all your teeth, dental implants are the longest-lasting and most stable treatment option. After the titanium implant posts fuse with your underlying bone, they provide a strong foundation for a natural-looking and functioning crown, bridge, or full mouth prosthesis.
