ORAL SURGEON IN LAREDO, TX

Surgical Care You Can Trust, Close to Home

Oral surgery covers the procedures that go beyond routine dental care, from removing problem teeth to placing implants and preparing the mouth for restorations. It sounds intimidating, but in the right hands it is safe, routine, and far more comfortable than most people expect. Dr. Heni Gutman, DDS, and our Laredo team walk you through every step so you always know what is happening and why.

A Laredo native and UTHealth School of Dentistry graduate, Dr. Gutman brings a gentle, reassuring approach to surgical care. Patients come to our office on San Dario, near Mall del Norte, from across Laredo and Webb County, so most surgical needs are handled right here rather than sending you elsewhere. And because comfort matters most during these visits, we offer multiple sedation options to keep you relaxed throughout.

What Laredo Families Are Saying About Smile Magic

ORAL SURGERY SERVICES IN LAREDO

Our Oral Surgery Services

The full range of surgical care, all under one roof in Laredo.

Tooth Extractions

From straightforward removals to more complex surgical extractions, we take out teeth that are too damaged, decayed, or crowded to save, gently and safely. We talk through replacement options afterward so you leave with a plan.

Wisdom Teeth Removal

Impacted wisdom teeth can crowd your other teeth, cause pain, and invite infection. We remove them before they become a bigger problem, with sedation available to keep you comfortable from start to finish.

Dental Implant Placement

Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. We surgically place the titanium implant post that anchors your new tooth into the jaw. Once healed, your restorative crown is placed on top, which you can read about on our restorative dentistry page.

Bone Grafting & Sinus Lifts

Not enough bone to support an implant? Bone grafting rebuilds the area, and a sinus lift adds support in the upper jaw, so implants have a solid foundation. These procedures make implants possible for many patients who thought they were not candidates.

Alveoloplasty (Jawbone Reshaping)

Before dentures or other restorations, we sometimes smooth and reshape the jawbone ridge so your new teeth fit comfortably and securely. It is a straightforward step that makes a big difference in the final result.

Canine Exposure & Oral Biopsies

We perform canine exposure and bracketing to help impacted teeth come into place alongside orthodontic care, as well as oral biopsies when a spot in the mouth needs to be examined. If something looks unusual, getting it checked early is always the right move.

ORAL SURGERY QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Oral Surgery FAQs

Does getting a tooth extracted hurt?

We numb the area thoroughly, and with sedation options available, most patients feel little to nothing during the procedure. Some soreness afterward is normal, and we send you home with clear instructions to manage it comfortably.

When should wisdom teeth be removed?

Often in the late teens or early twenties, before the roots are fully formed and while recovery is easiest. We watch for signs of impaction, crowding, or infection and recommend removal when it is the right call. The American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons offers helpful guidance on managing wisdom teeth.

How long is recovery after oral surgery?

It depends on the procedure. A simple extraction may take a few days, while implant placement or bone grafting heals over several weeks. We will give you a realistic timeline and aftercare plan so you know exactly what to expect.

Do you offer sedation for surgery?

Yes. We offer multiple sedation options, including deeper sedation for surgical procedures, so you stay comfortable and relaxed. Learn more on our sedation dentistry page.

Do you speak Spanish?

Yes. Se habla Español. Our Laredo team serves patients comfortably in both English and Spanish.
