ParkSide Dental provides oral surgical care in Brooklyn with Dr. Anton Moskalenko, DDS, with treatment planned around your dental condition, imaging, comfort and long-term restorative needs.
Our office is located at 325 Ocean Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11225, near Prospect Park and Prospect Lefferts Gardens.
Oral surgery at a dental office can include procedures such as surgical tooth extraction, wisdom tooth removal, dental implant placement and bone grafting. The exact treatment depends on the tooth, surrounding bone, infection, symptoms and what the patient needs after the surgical phase.
For many patients, the first visit is about determining whether surgery is actually necessary, what imaging is needed, and whether the tooth can be restored or should be removed.
Oral surgery care at ParkSide Dental in Brooklyn, NY, including tooth extraction, wisdom tooth removal, dental implants and bone grafting.
Surgical dental care focused on removing problem teeth, replacing missing teeth and supporting future restorations.
Removal of a tooth that is severely decayed, fractured, infected or otherwise not restorable.
Evaluation and removal of symptomatic, damaged or problematic third molars when appropriate.
Implants can replace missing tooth roots and support crowns, bridges or larger restorative treatment.
Bone grafting may be recommended when additional jawbone support is needed before or during implant treatment.
When a tooth cannot be predictably restored, removal may be the safest next step.
Tooth extraction may be recommended for severe decay, fracture, infection, advanced periodontal damage, a non-restorable tooth or other situations where retaining the tooth is no longer practical.
The dentist evaluates the tooth and surrounding structures before recommending extraction. Surgical complexity varies depending on tooth position, root anatomy, bone and whether the tooth is fully erupted.

Third molars can cause pain, infection or damage when there is not enough room for them to erupt normally.
Inflamed gum tissue around a wisdom tooth can become sore, swollen or difficult to clean.
A tooth may remain partly or completely trapped beneath gum or bone and require surgical evaluation.
Wisdom teeth can be difficult to clean and may develop cavities or periodontal problems.
In some cases, a poorly positioned wisdom tooth can affect the tooth in front of it.
Dental implants can replace one or more missing teeth and support fixed or removable restorations.
Implant treatment begins with evaluation of the missing-tooth area, gum health, bone and bite. The surgical phase places the implant into the planned position in the jaw, followed by healing and restorative treatment.
For complete information on implant types, cost, recovery and tooth-replacement options, visit our dental implants in Brooklyn page.
Not every implant patient needs bone grafting, but some implant sites require additional support.
Jawbone can shrink after a tooth has been missing for a period of time. Bone loss may also be related to infection, periodontal disease or anatomy. When the planned implant site does not have enough bone, grafting may be recommended before or during implant treatment.
ParkSide Dental currently lists bone grafting starting at $300. Learn more about bone grafting for dental implants.
Some oral surgery and implant cases benefit from three-dimensional evaluation of the jaw and surrounding anatomy.
Dental X-rays and, when indicated, CBCT imaging can help the dentist evaluate bone, tooth roots, impacted teeth and nearby anatomical structures before surgery.

“The best surgical plan starts with understanding why the tooth or area is a problem and what the patient will need afterward. Sometimes the goal is simply to remove a painful tooth; in other cases, we are also planning for an implant or another restoration.”— Dr. Anton Moskalenko, DDS
Most treatment starts with diagnosis and planning rather than going straight to surgery.
The dentist examines the tooth, gums, bite and area causing pain or concern.
X-rays or 3D imaging may be recommended depending on the procedure and anatomy.
The dentist explains whether extraction, implant treatment, grafting or another approach is appropriate.
If surgery is performed, you receive instructions for eating, oral hygiene, activity and follow-up.
Recovery varies significantly depending on whether you had an extraction, wisdom tooth removal, implant placement or bone grafting.
Soreness, tenderness and swelling can occur after surgical dental treatment.
Soft foods that require minimal chewing are often easier during early healing.
Hard, crunchy or irritating foods may need to be avoided temporarily depending on the procedure.
Your dentist will advise you based on the procedure, complexity, medications and how you are healing.

Severe tooth pain, rapidly increasing swelling, fever, drainage, difficulty opening the mouth, or swelling around the jaw or face should be evaluated promptly.

Cost, extraction, wisdom teeth, implants, eating and recovery questions patients commonly ask.
Cost depends on the procedure. ParkSide Dental currently lists surgical extraction starting at $200, wisdom tooth extraction starting at $300, bone grafting starting at $300 and dental implants at $2,500 per implant.
Coverage depends on the procedure and the dental plan. Extractions may have different benefits from implants, grafting or restorative treatment. Our office can review available insurance information and estimated patient responsibility.
A surgical approach may be needed when a tooth is broken below the gumline, impacted, difficult to access, has complex roots or cannot be removed predictably with a simple extraction.
No. Wisdom teeth are evaluated based on symptoms, position, cleanliness, decay, gum health, infection and their effect on nearby teeth. Some can be monitored rather than removed.
Yes, but timing varies. Some patients may be candidates for implant placement at the time of extraction, while others need healing or bone grafting first.
Not every patient needs a graft. Bone grafting may be recommended when the implant site lacks enough bone to support the planned implant.
Soft foods are often easier during early healing. The exact diet depends on the procedure and the dentist’s postoperative instructions.
Some swelling is common after surgical dental treatment and often changes over the first several days. The amount and duration depend on the procedure and individual healing.
Return to work depends on the procedure, medications, swelling, discomfort and the physical demands of your job. Your dentist can provide guidance for your case.
Call if you have worsening pain, increasing swelling, persistent bleeding, fever, drainage, a bad taste or another symptom that concerns you. Seek urgent medical attention for difficulty breathing or swallowing.
