From wisdom teeth to complex extractions, our Tech Ridge surgical team handles procedures with precision, gentleness, and sedation options that keep you comfortable. Dr. Tarek Abourass brings advanced surgical training and a reassuring chairside manner to every case.
Some dental problems can’t be solved with a filling or a crown. When a tooth is impacted, severely infected, fractured below the gumline, or needs to come out before it causes bigger issues, oral surgery is the answer. The idea of surgery can feel intimidating — but putting it off usually makes things worse.
At myDental Tech Ridge, we combine advanced surgical techniques with sedation options so you can get the care you need without the fear. Dr. Tarek and our team have helped thousands of patients through procedures they were dreading — comfortably and safely.

Our Tech Ridge office provides a full range of oral surgery procedures — from routine wisdom teeth removal to complex surgical extractions and bone grafting. Every procedure begins with thorough digital imaging so Dr. Tarek can plan the safest, most efficient approach for your specific situation.
Whether you need one extraction or preparation for a full mouth reconstruction, our team handles your surgical care in-house — no referral to an outside surgeon required.
Impacted or problematic wisdom teeth removed safely with sedation options for complete comfort
Complex extractions for broken, impacted, or severely decayed teeth that can’t be removed with simple pulling
Rebuilds jawbone after tooth loss or extraction to prepare for dental implants or prevent bone deterioration
Detailed aftercare instructions and follow-up visits ensure smooth healing and minimal discomfort
Our surgical team performs a range of procedures right here at our Tech Ridge office. Dr. Tarek will recommend the approach that’s safest and most effective for your situation.

Impacted or partially erupted wisdom teeth can cause pain, infection, and crowding. We remove third molars using minimally invasive techniques with sedation options — most patients are back to normal within a few days.

When a tooth is broken at the gumline, fused to the bone, or has curved roots, a surgical approach is needed. Dr. Tarek carefully removes the tooth while preserving surrounding bone and tissue for optimal healing.

After tooth loss, the jawbone begins to shrink. Bone grafting places biocompatible material in the socket to promote new bone growth — creating a strong foundation for future dental implants or preventing further bone loss.

Teeth that haven’t erupted properly — canines, premolars, or supernumerary teeth — may need surgical exposure. We uncover the tooth and, when possible, guide it into proper position with orthodontic attachment.
Knowing what’s coming takes the anxiety out of surgery. Here’s a step-by-step look at your experience from consultation to recovery.
Dr. Tarek examines the area and takes digital X-rays or 3D scans to see exactly what’s happening beneath the surface. You’ll understand the problem, the recommended procedure, and your sedation options before anything starts.
On the day of your procedure, your chosen sedation — nitrous oxide, oral sedation, or local anesthesia — is administered so you’re completely comfortable. Many patients barely remember the procedure at all.
Dr. Tarek performs the surgery using minimally invasive techniques. Whether it’s an extraction, bone graft, or impacted tooth removal, the goal is always to preserve as much healthy tissue as possible while thoroughly addressing the problem.
You’ll receive a post-op care kit with detailed instructions, gauze, and everything you need for a smooth recovery. Our team follows up to check on your healing and answer any questions. Most patients feel significantly better within 48 to 72 hours.
Surgery is stressful enough without worrying about whether you’re in the right hands. Here’s why our Tech Ridge patients trust us with their surgical care.
Nitrous oxide for mild relaxation or oral sedation for deeper comfort. You choose the level that’s right for you — no judgment, no pressure.
Insurance verification, flexible financing, and the myDental Plan make oral surgery accessible. No surprise bills — you know the cost before you commit.
Extractions, bone grafting, implant placement, and follow-up care all happen at our Tech Ridge office. No referrals to outside surgeons.
Severe pain or infection? We offer same-day emergency extraction appointments so you don’t have to suffer through the weekend.
Dr. Tarek is a Fellow of the ICOI with advanced training in surgical extractions, bone grafting, and implant placement — the expertise complex cases demand.
Every surgical patient receives a care kit with gauze, ice packs, and clear recovery instructions. Plus follow-up calls and appointments to ensure smooth healing.

Simple extractions typically range from $150 to $350 per tooth. Surgical extractions and wisdom teeth removal are $250 to $600 per tooth depending on complexity. At myDental Tech Ridge, we provide a clear cost estimate during your consultation. We accept most PPO insurance plans, offer flexible financing, and have the myDental Plan for uninsured patients.
Most PPO dental insurance plans cover medically necessary oral surgery procedures like extractions and bone grafting. Wisdom teeth removal is typically covered as well. Our Tech Ridge team will verify your benefits, maximize your coverage, and explain your out-of-pocket costs before treatment begins.
That’s up to you. All procedures include local anesthesia to eliminate pain. For patients who want deeper relaxation, we offer sedation options including nitrous oxide (laughing gas) for mild relaxation and oral sedation for a deeper level of comfort. With oral sedation, most patients are awake but deeply relaxed and remember very little afterward.
Most patients feel significantly better within 48 to 72 hours. Simple extractions may heal in a few days, while surgical extractions and wisdom teeth removal typically take about a week for initial healing. You’ll receive a post-op care kit and detailed instructions to support smooth recovery. Dr. Tarek schedules follow-up visits to monitor healing.
Not always, but a socket preservation graft is recommended if you plan to replace the extracted tooth with a dental implant. The graft maintains bone volume so the implant has a strong foundation. Dr. Tarek will discuss whether grafting is appropriate for your situation during your consultation.
Yes. If you’re experiencing severe pain, infection, or a dental emergency, we offer same-day emergency extraction appointments at our Tech Ridge office. Call (512) 815-2524 and let our team know it’s urgent — we’ll work to get you in as quickly as possible.
