Oral Surgery

Surgery sounds serious. Most oral mouth surgery procedures are more routine than patients expect — and far more manageable when the preparation is done right.

What makes the difference isn’t just the surgeon’s hands. It’s the imaging used to plan the procedure, the sedation options available for patients with anxiety, and the team coordinating care before and after. At Millennium Aesthetics, surgical cases don’t get handed off or referred out. They’re handled in-house, from diagnosis through recovery.

As a center for oral surgery and dental implants, Millennium Aesthetics offers a full range of surgical procedures:

Surgical tooth extraction is needed when a tooth can’t be removed with simple forceps — when it’s broken below the gumline, has curved roots, or is firmly anchored in dense bone. We also handle straightforward extractions for teeth that are beyond saving due to decay, fracture, or advanced gum disease.

The goal after any extraction is to preserve the bone at the site. If an implant is planned, socket preservation grafting may be recommended at the same appointment — it takes a few minutes and significantly improves long-term outcomes.

Most wisdom teeth cause trouble eventually. Impacted third molars that are partially erupted create a chronic entry point for bacteria; fully impacted ones press against adjacent teeth and cause pain, shifting, and occasionally damage to roots. Oral teeth surgery for wisdom teeth at Millennium Aesthetics is done under local anesthesia, with sedation available for patients who want it. Most patients are back to a normal routine within a few days.

Implant surgery is one of the most predictable procedures in modern dentistry when it’s planned properly. We use digital guided surgery — the implant position is mapped in 3D before the procedure begins, and a surgical guide translates that plan directly to the operating field. This reduces surgical time, improves accuracy, and leads to better long-term integration.

Implant placement at our oral surgery dental office is coordinated directly with our prosthodontists, who handle the restorative side. Both teams plan the case together from the start, which is how implant treatment is supposed to work.

We also perform bone grafting and sinus lift procedures for patients who don’t have adequate bone volume for standard implant placement. These are common preparatory steps — not complications — and our surgeons do them routinely.

• Before: Most surgical cases start with a consultation and imaging — digital X-rays and, for more complex cases, a CBCT scan. Your oral surgery dentist will walk you through exactly what the procedure involves, how long it takes, and what recovery looks like before anything is scheduled. If you’re being sedated, you’ll receive specific instructions about eating and drinking beforehand.
• During: Local anesthesia is used for all procedures. IV sedation or oral sedation is available for patients with dental anxiety or for longer surgeries. Most patients are surprised by how little discomfort they feel during the procedure itself.
• After: Swelling and mild soreness for two to three days is typical for most extractions and minor surgeries. Implant placement recovery is usually similar. Your team will give you specific aftercare instructions — what to eat, what to avoid, when to call if something doesn’t feel right. Follow-up appointments are scheduled before you leave.

Oral surgery in Florida pricing depends on the procedure, complexity, and whether preparatory work is needed.

A simple extraction typically runs $150–$300. Surgical extractions and wisdom teeth removal range from $300–$600 per tooth, depending on impaction level. Implant placement starts around $1,500–$2,500 per implant, not including the crown or restoration. Bone grafting and sinus lift add to the total and vary based on the volume of material needed.

These are reference points, not quotes. The only accurate price for your case comes from a consultation and imaging.

On insurance: many plans cover extractions and some surgical procedures, at least partially. Implant placement is less commonly covered, though coverage is improving. Millennium Aesthetics doesn’t bill insurance directly, but we’ll help you understand what your plan includes before treatment begins. For the remainder, third-party financing with monthly payment options is available.
