Sometimes the most direct path to a healthier smile requires surgical precision. Whether you are facing wisdom teeth removal, dental implant placement, or complex extractions, advanced oral surgery can resolve problems and restore oral health in ways other treatments cannot. When done right, these procedures can transform not just your mouth but your overall well-being.
At Seattle Smiles Company, we combine advanced technology with compassionate care in every oral surgery procedure. Dr. Kashi brings advanced fellowship-level training in surgical and implant care, giving our downtown Seattle practice a depth of capability that goes well beyond what most general dental offices can offer. From straightforward extractions to full-arch reconstruction, we provide the surgical foundation for lasting dental health. We offer free consultations, flexible monthly payment options, and a full range of sedation dentistry options to make every procedure as comfortable as possible.
Oral Surgery Procedures We Offer
Oral surgery includes a wide array of procedures designed to correct functional problems, relieve pain, and prepare your mouth for restorative treatments. These procedures address deeper structural issues within your jaw, gums, and surrounding tissues that general dentistry cannot reach. Here is a look at the surgical services we provide at our downtown Seattle practice.
- Wisdom teeth removal: prevents crowding and infection before they start. According to the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, around 90% of Americans have at least one impacted wisdom tooth, making this one of the most common oral surgery needs.
- Bone grafting: strengthens a weakened jawbone by adding bone material to create a stable foundation for dental implants. Necessary when bone loss has occurred following tooth loss or extraction.
- Gum grafting: rebuilds receded gum tissue, protects sensitive tooth roots from exposure, and improves the appearance of your smile. Often performed when gum recession has progressed too far for non-surgical treatment.
- Complex tooth extractions: eliminates teeth too damaged or infected to save, clearing the way for healthier replacements such as dental implants or bridges.
- Impacted tooth exposure: reveals teeth trapped beneath the gumline to allow proper eruption, often coordinated with orthodontic treatment.
- Pre-prosthetic surgery: prepares your mouth for dentures or implants by reshaping bone and soft tissue to ensure a proper fit and long-term stability.
Each of these procedures addresses specific oral health challenges, and our team will walk you through exactly what is involved, what to expect, and what your recovery will look like before any procedure begins.

Advanced Technology for Precise Treatment
Modern oral surgery relies on sophisticated imaging and planning tools that make procedures more predictable and comfortable. At our Seattle practice, we use 3D CT scanning to capture detailed views of your jaw structure, nerve pathways, and bone density before a single incision is made. This level of pre-surgical planning significantly improves accuracy and reduces the risk of complications.
Digital scanners create precise models of your mouth, eliminating uncomfortable physical impressions while providing exact measurements that integrate with surgical guides during placement procedures. We also use laser dentistry for soft-tissue procedures like gum grafting, where lasers minimize bleeding, reduce infection risk, and promote faster healing compared to traditional techniques.
Sedation Options for Your Comfort
Anxiety about oral surgery is completely understandable, but it should never be a barrier to getting the care you need. We offer a full range of sedation options to keep you comfortable throughout your procedure, regardless of its complexity. Light sedation options provide mild relaxation while you remain fully conscious. Oral sedation offers deeper relaxation through medication taken before your appointment. For more involved procedures, IV sedation allows precise, real-time control over your sedation level throughout.
For patients undergoing extensive oral surgery or those with significant dental anxiety, general anesthesia ensures you remain completely unconscious and comfortable. A certified anesthesia provider monitors you continuously while our surgical team focuses entirely on your treatment. We will discuss which option is the right fit at your free consultation.
Recovery and Aftercare
The success of oral surgery extends well beyond the procedure itself. Following your surgery, we provide detailed written instructions specific to your procedure, covering medication management, dietary guidelines, and activity restrictions. Most oral surgeries require a few days of modified activity. Soft foods, gentle rinsing with salt water, and avoiding strenuous exercise help your body heal efficiently. Ice packs reduce swelling during the first 24 hours, while prescribed medication keeps you comfortable as tissues repair.
Some procedures, such as bone grafting for dental implants, require several months of healing before the next phase of treatment begins. Throughout this process, we remain available to answer questions and ensure your recovery proceeds smoothly. Our team offers 24/7 emergency support because we know concerns do not follow office hours.
