Understanding Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery: Specialized Expertise

As one of only nine dental specialties recognized by the American Dental Association, oral and maxillofacial surgeons represent the highest level of surgical training in dentistry. At Roman Dental Arts, we’re proud to offer this specialized expertise to our patients in Hackensack and throughout Bergen County.

Frequently Asked Questions About Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
What’s the difference between a regular dentist and an oral surgeon?
An oral and maxillofacial surgeon completes an additional 4-6 years of hospital-based residency training after dental school, focusing exclusively on surgical procedures of the face, mouth, and jaw. This specialized training enables them to perform complex procedures beyond the scope of general dentistry.
Will my procedure be painful?
Our Hackensack surgical team prioritizes your comfort. We offer various anesthesia options, from local anesthesia to IV sedation and general anesthesia, ensuring you remain comfortable throughout your procedure. Most patients report minimal discomfort and are surprised by how smoothly their recovery progresses.
How long is the recovery after wisdom teeth removal?
Most patients in Hackensack and surrounding communities can return to normal activities within 3-5 days after wisdom teeth extraction. Complete healing takes about 1-2 weeks. Our team provides detailed recovery instructions to ensure optimal healing.
Are dental implants right for me?
Most adults in good general health with sufficient jawbone density are excellent candidates for dental implants. During your consultation at our Hackensack office, our surgical team will evaluate your specific situation and determine if implants are the right solution for you.
Does insurance cover oral surgery procedures?
Many oral surgery procedures have some coverage under dental and/or medical insurance. Our experienced team works with patients from Hackensack, Teaneck, Maywood, Lodi, and throughout Bergen County to maximize their insurance benefits and discuss financing options for any out-of-pocket expenses.
