Oral surgery has never been simpler
Do you have severe pain, a recent injury, a critically damaged tooth, or a missing tooth? If any of these sound familiar, you may need oral surgery.
We know that “oral surgery” are 2 words that most people don’t want to hear. But at Gresham Dental, our dentists are so committed to making sure our patients feel at ease and completely relaxed throughout the procedure.
Call our office to get the help that you need. One of our highly skilled dentists will examine your mouth and work with you to find a solution that suits your needs.
What oral surgery can do for you
Our dentists can help you solve a wide range of dental problems, including:
- Infection of the pulp (pulpitis)
- Severely damaged teeth
- Missing teeth
If you are in extreme pain, have a broken tooth, or anything that needs immediate attention, don’t wait another minute. Reach out to us to get emergency dental care as soon as possible. Call: (503) 666-7000
Endodontic surgery at Gresham Dental
When decay gets to the center of the teeth, the pulp becomes infected. When this happens, an endodontic surgery — also known as root canal treatment — is often the best solution to save your tooth.
During the procedure, one of our dentists will carefully remove the infected part of your tooth. Then, after cleaning and sealing the treated area, they will place a crown or a filling. This surgery prevents further damage to your tooth and keeps it from being extracted.
Dental implants
We often recommend dental implants to patients who are missing one or several teeth.
Dental implants function as roots for artificial teeth, such as crowns, dentures, or bridges. The surgery is performed under local anesthesia, so patients feel comfortable throughout the procedure. This treatment helps patients recover both function and appearance of their teeth, allowing them to look, eat, and speak better.
Everyone deserves a healthy smile
We accept most major dental insurance providers. If you are not insured, we offer affordable dental services and a variety of payment and financing options.

Oral surgery at Gresham Dental is performed using a local anesthetic, so you won’t feel any discomfort during the procedure. You may experience some soreness after the surgery, which can be alleviated with over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen and paracetamol.
