Good oral health sometimes requires more than routine care. When complex dental conditions arise, Dr. Helen Thai, Dr. Quincy Tan, and their experienced team offer advanced oral surgery with compassion and precision—restoring your health, comfort, and confidence. We equip our modern offices in San Francisco, Vallejo, and Fairfield for a full range of oral surgery needs, from simple tooth extractions to advanced bone grafts and sinus lifts.
When a tooth is badly decayed, infected, or causing crowding, a simple extraction may be the best solution. Simple tooth extractions are routine procedures performed comfortably right in our office.
We give patients thorough aftercare instructions and support for optimal recovery in the healing process.
When teeth are broken at the gum line, have curved roots, or are otherwise complicated, a surgical extraction is necessary. This procedure requires small incisions to access and remove the tooth safely.
Our surgeons use advanced technology and skill to ensure safe, successful outcomes for all surgical extractions.
Impacted teeth—like wisdom teeth or canines that fail to erupt properly—can cause pain, infection, or crowding if left untreated. We often recommend surgical removal to prevent future issues or oral health problems.
We focus on comfort, safe healing, and preventing complications such as infection or misalignment.
Insufficient jawbone can jeopardize dental implants or oral health. Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that helps rebuild lost bone, making dental implant placement or other restorative solutions possible.
Healing usually takes several months, after which implants or other treatments can proceed with a strong foundation.
When the upper jaw doesn’t have enough bone height (often in the area of back teeth or molars), a sinus lift (sinus augmentation) adds bone beneath the sinus membrane to support dental implants.
Recovery and integration usually require a few months, after which dental implants can be safely and securely placed.
Personalized, clear consultations to discuss needs, risks, and options
State-of-the-art technology and surgical planning, enhancing both safety and comfort
Multilingual team ready to answer questions in your native language (Spanish, Tagalog, Hindi, Japanese, Vietnamese)
Gentle anesthesia and pain management to ensure peace of mind
Post-surgical care and detailed follow-up instructions for smooth, stress-free healing
Patient safety, understanding, and comfort are at the heart of every oral surgery experience in our offices.
We use advanced anesthesia and oral sedation options to ensure your procedure is comfortable. Most patients report little to no pain during treatment and manageable soreness afterward with proper aftercare.
Recovery depends on the procedure: simple extractions heal quickly (often in a few days), while bone grafts and sinus lifts require several months for full integration. We’ll discuss timelines and provide a recovery roadmap during your consultation.
We provide specific pre- and post-op instructions tailored to your health status, medications, and procedure—ensuring safety and optimal results during and after the treatment plan.
If you need tooth removal, jawbone or sinus surgery, or have been told you’re not a candidate for dental implants, schedule a consultation with Dr. Helen Thai, Dr. Quincy Tan, and our experienced oral surgery team. With meticulous care, personal support, and leading technology, we help you achieve optimal oral health outcomes at every stage.
