Oral
A range of oral procedures can be undertaken at Canberra Surgicentre under local anaesthetic or general anaesthetic.


Removal of Wisdom Teeth
Wisdom teeth can become problematic when they are impacted, decayed or partially erupted, requiring surgical extraction.


Dental Implants
Dental implants can be placed as a permanent replacement for missing teeth providing a more permanent solution than dentures.


TMJ Disorders
TMJ dysfunction is a common cause of orofacial pain. It can often be treated conservatively, but sometimes requires surgery.


Arthrocentesis
Arthrocentesis may be utilised as a surgical intervention to treat TMJ dysfunction if conservative treatment is unsuitable.


Apicectomies
Apicectomy is a procedure in which a portion of the root of a tooth is removed either under sedation or local anaesthetic.


Minor Oral Procedures
Removal of cysts of the jaw can be undertaken to avoid damage to teeth and often only require minor surgical intervention.
