Oral Surgery on the Central Coast
Wisdom teeth, surgical extractions, biopsies and minor oral surgery, in our Ourimbah rooms or under general anaesthetic in hospital.
All dentists are trained to remove teeth. Some teeth and procedures are more complex, and your dentist may refer you to a practitioner with additional surgical experience. At OSO Oral Surgery Ourimbah we carry out treatment under local anaesthetic in the chair, or under general anaesthetic at Brisbane Waters Private Hospital or Gosford Private Hospital, and we keep your dentist updated.

Care after you leave
When you leave our doors you're not on your own. We keep in contact to make sure you're as comfortable as possible and are available when you need us.
