Comprehensive Oral Surgery in Wall Township, NJ

An oral surgeon performs a wide range of oral surgery procedures for the teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures. At The Dailey Center, Dr. Marisa Dailey provides comprehensive oral and maxillofacial care that includes:

• Dental implants and full-arch All-on-X treatment for missing or failing teeth
• Wisdom teeth removal and treatment of impacted teeth
• Routine and complex tooth extractions
• Bone grafting, including socket preservation, ridge augmentation, and sinus augmentation
• Biopsies and evaluation of oral lesions and pathology
• TMJ and facial pain treatment, including Botox when clinically appropriate
• Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) and regenerative techniques used to support healing when appropriate
• Evaluation and repair of selected facial lacerations when appropriate for office-based care

Every procedure is planned around your anatomy, medical history, diagnosis, and treatment goals.

You may be referred to an oral surgeon when a condition requires surgical expertise beyond routine dental care.

General dentists provide preventive and restorative care and perform many dental procedures. More complex surgical needs — such as impacted wisdom teeth, dental implant placement, bone grafting, difficult extractions, biopsies, and procedures requiring advanced sedation or anesthesia — are often referred to an oral and maxillofacial surgeon.

The distinction comes down largely to training. Following dental school, oral and maxillofacial surgeons complete additional years of hospital-based surgical residency focused on conditions of the teeth, jaws, mouth, and associated facial structures.

If you are unsure where your care belongs, a consultation is often the simplest way to understand what you need and which treatment approach is appropriate.

Your first visit is a conversation before it is anything else.

Dr. Dailey reviews your medical and dental history, listens to your concerns, examines the area in question, and obtains any imaging needed to better understand what is happening beneath the surface.

From there, she walks you through your diagnosis, your treatment options, the risks and benefits of each, and what you can realistically expect from treatment and recovery.

You are never rushed toward a decision. The goal of the consultation is clarity, so you leave understanding what is recommended, why it is recommended, and what comes next.

This unhurried, education-first approach reflects how we believe surgical care should feel.

Comfort is not an afterthought here; it is planned into your procedure from the start.

Depending on your health, anxiety level, and the procedure being performed, anesthesia and sedation options may include:

• IV sedation for patients who benefit from a deeper level of relaxation during treatment
• Nitrous oxide for mild, quickly reversible relaxation
• Oral sedation when appropriate for patients who need an added level of comfort
• Local anesthesia to thoroughly numb the surgical area

Oral and maxillofacial surgeons receive extensive anesthesia training as part of their hospital-based residency, including patient evaluation, administration of anesthesia, and monitoring.

For many people, anticipating surgery is more difficult than the procedure itself. Our team’s goal is to make sure you feel informed, comfortable, and genuinely cared for from the moment you arrive.

Advanced technology gives us more information before treatment begins, allowing Dr. Dailey to plan procedures around your individual anatomy with greater precision.

At The Dailey Center, low-dose 3D CBCT imaging provides a detailed three-dimensional view of important structures such as your teeth, jawbone, nerves, and sinuses while helping limit radiation exposure. This information can be especially valuable when planning dental implants, evaluating impacted wisdom teeth, assessing available bone, and understanding the relationship between surgical sites and nearby anatomy.

Digital intraoral scanning can reduce the need for traditional impressions, while computer-guided surgical planning allows implant positioning to be mapped before surgery when appropriate.

We may also incorporate Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF), prepared from a small sample of your own blood, as part of a regenerative approach to healing when clinically appropriate.

Better information before treatment begins allows surgical care to be planned more precisely around your anatomy, diagnosis, and treatment goals.

Recovery varies depending on the type and extent of your procedure, but our goal is always the same: a well-supported healing process with clear expectations from the beginning.

Recovery after a straightforward extraction may be relatively brief, while procedures such as dental implant placement, bone grafting, or more complex surgery require additional healing time.

You leave with detailed postoperative instructions and a team you can contact if questions arise. When clinically appropriate, regenerative techniques such as PRF may also be incorporated into your surgical care.

Following your postoperative instructions, maintaining appropriate oral hygiene, taking medications as directed, and allowing your body adequate time to rest all play an important role in recovery.

Good preparation starts before the day of your procedure, and we guide you through each step.

Depending on your treatment and anesthesia plan, preparation may include:

• Sharing a complete and current list of medications, supplements, allergies, and health conditions
• Arranging for a responsible adult to drive you home and remain available after surgery when required for sedation or anesthesia
• Following the specific eating, drinking, and medication instructions provided by our team
• Wearing comfortable clothing and planning appropriate time to rest afterward

Instructions vary depending on the procedure and type of anesthesia you are receiving, so it is important to follow the directions provided specifically for you.

If anything is unclear before surgery, we would always rather you call our office and ask than guess.

Every surgical procedure carries potential risks, which is why careful evaluation, planning, and monitoring matter.

Before treatment, Dr. Dailey reviews your medical history, medications, imaging, anatomy, and the specific considerations associated with your procedure. When sedation or anesthesia is planned, your health and anesthesia needs are evaluated as part of the surgical plan.

Dr. Dailey’s hospital-based surgical training and experience managing both routine and complex cases inform the thoughtful, deliberate approach she brings to everyday oral surgery.

During treatment, appropriate surgical, anesthesia, and monitoring protocols are used based on the procedure and type of anesthesia being provided.

Managing risk is not a single step. It is built into how we evaluate, plan, perform, and follow up on every procedure.

The cost of oral surgery depends on the procedure, its complexity, and whether additional treatment such as bone grafting, sedation, or anesthesia is needed. A personalized estimate is provided as part of your treatment planning.

The Dailey Center is a fee-for-service oral and maxillofacial surgery practice, which means we are not contracted with dental insurance networks. This allows treatment recommendations to be based on your diagnosis, anatomy, and clinical needs rather than the restrictions of an insurance network.

As a courtesy, our team will gladly submit out-of-network claims on your behalf so you can pursue any reimbursement available through your plan.

We believe you should understand the financial side of your treatment as clearly as the clinical side, so anticipated fees are reviewed before treatment begins.

Choosing an oral surgeon is about more than finding someone who performs the procedure. It is about trusting the person responsible for your diagnosis, anesthesia, surgery, and recovery.

• Care led by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon with advanced hospital-based surgical training and experience
