Our Oral Surgery Services
Extractions
Tooth extractions are often necessary when a tooth is too damaged or decayed to be repaired. At Advanced Family Dental of Midlothian, we ensure that extractions are performed with minimal discomfort, using the latest techniques to promote quick healing and recovery.
Root Canals
A root canal is a common procedure designed to save a tooth that is severely infected or decayed. Dr. Varkey and Dr. Siddiqui’s experience in root canal therapy guarantees a high success rate, focusing on preserving the tooth and alleviating pain.
Wisdom Tooth Removal
Wisdom teeth removal is a routine procedure performed by our dentists to address impacted or problematic wisdom teeth. Our practice uses advanced techniques to ensure a smooth and comfortable experience, minimizing post-operative complications.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are a durable and natural-looking solution for tooth loss. Dr. Varkey is highly skilled in implant surgery, offering a permanent solution for missing teeth that enhances both function and aesthetics. A titanium implant post will be surgically placed into your jaw, acting as a tooth root. Traditionally, patients had to wait to have their crown or bridge fitted once it had fused with the surrounding jawbone, but nowadays, we can offer same-day restorations to give you new teeth in a day!

Frequently Asked Questions About Veteran's Dental Care
Is oral surgery painful?
We use advanced pain management techniques to ensure comfort during and after the procedure. This can include local anesthesia, sedation, and post-treatment pain management. It’s important that you follow the dentist’s instructions regarding medication directly after your procedure to minimize discomfort and swelling.
How long is the recovery from oral surgery?
Recovery times vary depending on the procedure, but we provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth healing process. Generally, you can return to work and daily activities by the following day. You may need to adjust your diet slightly if you’re experiencing sensitivity or pain in the days immediately following the procedure.
What are the risks associated with oral surgery?
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks, but our team takes every precaution to minimize them. We adhere to strict sterilization and hygiene practices in our dental office. All instruments are sterilized, and treatment areas are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected between patients to prevent any risk of infection. Dr. Varkey employs the latest surgical techniques and technologies to enhance precision and reduce invasiveness. This approach minimizes tissue trauma, reduces the risk of complications, and often leads to quicker recovery times.
Can oral surgery help prevent future dental problems?
Many oral surgery procedures, like extractions and implants, can prevent further dental issues such as bone loss, loss of chewing and speaking abilities, or facial sagging.
