There’s many reasons why we would perform oral surgery. Most of what I do is through dental extractions. We only take out the teeth that absolutely need to come out.
That’s whether it’s fractured or severely decayed, meaning they have a really large cavity, or if the nerve that’s inside the tooth is infected. After the tooth is out, patients generally have multiple options as to how we either replace or restore their smile. That can be accomplished through partial dentures, implants, or bridges.

Breeze Through Your Surgery With Our Skilled Team
Our gentle approach to oral surgery ensures you’re comfortable and informed throughout your procedure. Your general dentist performs tooth extractions, from simple removals to more complex cases. While we handle many wisdom teeth extractions in our office, we may recommend a specialist for more complicated cases to ensure you receive the best possible care.
Before any procedure, we’ll:
- Take detailed X-rays to plan your surgery.
- Review your medical history.
- Explain the entire procedure step by step.
- Provide detailed aftercare instructions.
- Answer all your questions and concerns.
Understand Your Tooth Replacement Options
After your extraction, we offer several ways to restore your smile:
- Traditional Bridges – These custom-made appliances attach to neighboring teeth to fill the gap in your smile. A bridge looks natural and gives you reliable function.
- Complete or Partial Dentures – These removable appliances replace multiple missing teeth. They restore your ability to eat and speak confidently while maintaining your facial structure.
- Implant-Supported Crowns – A titanium implant in your jawbone will support a custom crown. This replacement tooth looks, feels, and functions just like your natural teeth.
- Implant-Supported Bridges – Multiple replacement teeth are anchored securely by dental implants. This provides exceptional stability and, unlike a traditional bridge or dentures, prevents bone loss in your jaw.
For oral surgery in Chambersburg, call Guilford Hills Dental Care today at 717-912-5227. You can also request an appointment online.

Dr. Sargent provided a second opinion about an on-going dental issue I have been struggling with for the past eight months. Despite the fact that she was meeting me for the first time, Dr. Sargent provided me with both thorough information and compassionate care—at a level that is rarely experienced in today’s efficiency-driven culture. I highly recommend Dr. Sargent!

Sam. Sherry and doctor Newman we’re all wonderful people. Dr. Newman made me feel at ease and relaxed. Especially with my anxiety of not enjoying the dentist. Drive Newman’s hygienist was great too… I really wish Guilford, hill dentistry Had payment plans because I would have stayed to get all my work done. I am having a hard time finding a dental surgeon To do all of my dental surgery, nobody wants to take my dental plan with my Medicare, and that’s one of the toughest parts….. I just don’t have $13,000. And it makes it difficult for me having a disability , and I don’t have that kind of money…… I loved having Dr Newman for my Dr and having sam help me financially.

Very nice people. They took the time to explain everything to me and ask if I had any questions or concerns. Everyone was friendly and professional. It was a good experience for me and I will gladly tell others about my experience with this business. I’m actually excited about my next dental visit.
Some of the most common reasons you may need oral surgery are removing a tooth that is too damaged to save, extracting wisdom teeth that are painful or causing dental problems, or removing teeth for dentures or other restorations.
For the first 24 hours after your oral surgery, you should not exercise at all. Doing too much too fast can actually create problems and prolong healing. Overexertion can loosen the blood clot from an extraction site and cause a painful condition known as dry socket. After the first 24 hours, limit your exercise to low-impact activities for several more days.
Your pain level will vary depending on the extent of your surgical procedure, your age, and your overall health. For some procedures, you may feel little or no pain as you recover. For more extensive procedures, you may have some soreness. In any case, we’ll provide guidance to help you minimize pain and soreness.
