Opt for Comfortable Oral Surgery in Crown Point

At J. Michael Krischke DDS, we understand that oral surgery in Crown Point can make some patients uneasy. Often, it involves removing a tooth—but with our experienced dentists, you can expect a smooth, comfortable experience that relieves pain and restores your oral health.

You'll also have multiple tooth replacement options available to rebuild your smile afterward. We use high-tech 3-D and panoramic imaging for precise planning, along with local anesthesia to keep you pain-free throughout your procedure. Our latex-free environment reduces allergy risks, and our dentists' years of surgical experience ensure you're in skilled hands. Call us to discuss your oral surgery options, including gentle tooth extractions and bone grafting to prepare your jaw for dental implants.

Feel Confident With Skilled, Gentle Care

Our dentists aren't oral surgeons, but with more than 50 years of combined experience, they've performed countless extractions—including wisdom teeth removals—with skill and precision.

You can trust them to make your procedure fast, gentle, and virtually pain-free. We use advanced panoramic imaging to capture a full view of your teeth and jaw, accurately locating each tooth's position without placing anything in your mouth.

Before beginning, we'll thoroughly numb your mouth to ensure your complete comfort throughout the procedure.

Our team combines expertise with a compassionate approach so you can feel confident every step of the way.

Relax With Comforts That Ease Your Visit

We want you to feel at ease during your oral surgery, so we provide thoughtful amenities to help you relax.

Enjoy free Wi-Fi, a cup of Starbucks coffee before your appointment, warm towels for comfort, and cable TV so you can watch your favorite show while we work.

Prefer a quieter visit? Schedule your appointment in the early morning or evening for a more peaceful experience.

Once your extraction is complete, our dentists can discuss tooth replacement options like dental implants, bridges, or dentures, and we also perform bone grafts to prepare your mouth for implants.

I absolutely love this office. Everyone I interact with (office ladies, dental hygienists, and the dentist) are friendly and kind. I've had the pleasure of seeing Ann twice now. I feel lucky to be her patient. She is patient and a joy to be around. I have always felt nervous going to the dentist, but with Ann I feel safe and enjoy my time. Her work is amazing - I leave with my teeth feeling clean and smooth. Thanks so much to everyone here, and a special thanks to Ann!

The staff and Dr. Krischke are excellent. All 4 kids and myself all with clean teeth and no cavities. We have gone here since 2017 and I can't imagine going anywhere else. They even saved my son's molar late at night when it was knocked out. We all love coming!

Frequently Asked Questions About Oral Surgery

Is there much discomfort after oral surgery?

The kind of oral surgery you have will ultimately determine how much discomfort you feel, but rest assured our goal is to provide the most worry-free oral care we can. For most of the oral surgery procedures we perform, non-prescription pain relievers will take care of any discomfort. Your dentist can prescribe something stronger to assist you through your healing and recovery, if needed.

Does health insurance cover oral surgery?

Generally speaking, medical insurance policies are very particular about what they will and will not cover. It is best to check with your provider to see if your treatment will be covered and just how much your part will cost. Keep in mind, we provide numerous payment options, including financing through CareCredit.

When can I work out after oral surgery?

For the first 24 hours after your oral surgery, you should not exercise at all. Doing too much can lengthen your recovery and lead to problems with healing. Overexertion can loosen the blood clot from an extraction area and trigger an unpleasant condition referred to as dry socket. After the initial 24 hours, restrict your workout to low-impact activities for several more days.
