Precision & Care for Your Oral Health
If you’re dealing with a dental issue that requires surgical care, our team is here to help. From tooth extractions to bone grafting and soft tissue procedures, oral surgery can correct problems and set your smile up for long-term health.

Extractions
​​
While saving your natural teeth is always our goal, there are times when removing a tooth is the healthiest choice. Whether it's due to deep decay, infection, crowding, or impaction, the team at Red Rock Dental provides gentle, precise extractions with your comfort as our top priority.
​
We also offer sedation options to ensure a calm and stress-free experience—especially for nervous patients or more complex procedures.
Common Reasons for Tooth Extractions
-
Severely decayed or infected teeth
-
Overcrowded or impacted teeth
-
Baby teeth that haven’t fallen out naturally
​
Wisdom teeth are commonly removed to prevent pain, crowding, or future oral health issues. We use advanced imaging like CBCT 3D scans to assess your wisdom teeth and plan a smooth, safe extraction process.

Post-Extraction Care & Bone Grafting
​
After a tooth is removed, it’s important to consider the long-term health of your jaw. In some cases, we may recommend bone grafting to preserve the bone in the area—especially if you’re considering a dental implant in the future.
Soft Tissue Surgeries
​
Your gum health is just as important as your teeth. At Red Rock Dental, we offer a range of soft tissue procedures to address gum recession, deep pockets, and uneven gum lines—helping to protect your smile and improve comfort.
Pocket Reduction Surgery
​
Advanced gum disease (periodontitis) can lead to gum recession, bone loss, and even tooth loss if left untreated. Pocket reduction surgery helps stop the progression of the disease by removing bacteria trapped in deep spaces between the teeth and gums. This allows the gum tissue to heal and reattach more securely to the teeth—helping to protect your smile for the long term.
How pocket reduction surgery helps:
-
Reduces deep gum pockets that trap bacteria
-
Prevents further gum and bone deterioration
-
Supports long-term gum and tooth health
If you're dealing with advanced periodontal disease, pocket reduction surgery can be an important step in preserving both your teeth and your oral health.
Soft Tissue Grafting
​
Gum recession can lead to tooth sensitivity, an uneven gum line, and increased risk of decay. Soft tissue grafting restores the gum line, preventing further deterioration while improving comfort and smile appearance.
Why consider soft tissue grafting?
-
Covers exposed tooth roots to reduce sensitivity
-
Prevents further gum recession and protects teeth
-
Enhances smile symmetry and overall gum health
​Crown Lengthening
​
If you feel self-conscious about a gummy smile or need more tooth exposure for a restoration, crown lengthening can help. This procedure removes excess gum tissue to create a balanced, more even smile while also preparing teeth for crowns or other restorations.
​
Benefits of crown lengthening:
-
Enhances smile aesthetics by reshaping the gum line
-
Helps prepare teeth for dental crowns or fillings
-
Improves overall gum health
Frenectomies
If your child is having difficulty breastfeeding, speaking, or eating, a frenectomy may be needed. This procedure removes restrictive tissue in the mouth, improving mobility and function.
How a frenectomy helps:
-
Improves breastfeeding success for infants
-
Enhances tongue and lip movement
-
Supports better speech development
Frenectomies are quick, minimally invasive, and often provide immediate results.

Oral Biopsies
​
If you’ve noticed an unusual lump, sore, or lesion in your mouth, an oral biopsy can help detect potential concerns early. Early detection is key to effective treatment, especially for oral cancer and other abnormalities.
When to consider an oral biopsy:
-
Persistent sores that don’t heal
-
Unexplained lumps or changes in gum tissue
-
White or red patches inside the mouth
Biopsies provide peace of mind and allow for proactive care if needed.

Tori Removal
Excess bone growth, known as tori, can interfere with speech, bite alignment, and restorative treatments like dentures or implants. Tori removal eliminates discomfort and improves oral function.
When is tori removal recommended?
-
If tori cause pain or irritation
-
When they interfere with dentures or implants
-
To improve bite alignment and overall comfort
This simple procedure can help prevent long-term oral health complications.
