Oral surgery involves removing a tooth. Sometimes, despite our best efforts, that needs to happen. And we are able to handle most of these procedures here in the office. And that’s a great relief to a lot of people. They don’t have to go to another surgeon, do another consult, gain trust of another practitioner. We can do it here.
Our techniques allow people to do it in a way that it’s not rushed. The procedure goes easily. The comment that we usually hear is, “That wasn’t so bad, it’s over already.”

We Have Comprehensive Surgical Solutions
There are numerous reasons why you may need dental surgery. However, you can feel confident knowing that Dr. Mueller only recommends it if absolutely necessary. If he can restore the function and health of your tooth with another treatment, he will. However, sometimes you need dental surgery to prepare for certain procedures or to protect healthy teeth from an infection.
We offer:
- Tooth Removal – If you have a severely damaged or infected tooth, an extraction procedure can prevent further complications to your oral health.
- Wisdom Teeth Removal – We can remove wisdom teeth to help you avoid overcrowding and other complications. We refer more complex cases to an oral surgeon.
- Cosmetic Gum Surgery – Enhance the beauty of your smile by improving the appearance of your gumline. This procedure is also sometimes done to prepare you for veneers or crowns.
- Ridge Augmentation – This procedure helps you create or maintain a strong jaw after tooth loss or extraction. It’s often used to prepare for dental implants or other restorative treatments.
- Sinus Lifts – If you are getting implants in your upper jaw, this treatment replaces the bone lost in the area to support implants. It also makes room for these artificial tooth roots.
- Bone Grafts – This can increase bone volume in your jaw, providing a solid foundation for implants and improving overall oral function.
If you struggle with anxiety, sedation options are available.
Call 360-443-9337 for oral surgery in Port Orchard. You can also request an appointment online.

My wife and I moved, and needed to change dentist. We continue to communicate for a good while, out of reluctance. Given the extensive implant work she had, it diddnt seem possible. She also had a diagnosis for Aphasia, which effected her chair behavior. I cant recall how we found Chris Muller and the team, but greatful we did. They handled her dental care perfectly, but also compassionate with her medical state. Ive had regular cleaning myself, with some of the lightest touch ever experienced. A couple crowns, that were essentially painless. (Im a bit of a wuss) . To give this team a simple 5 stars is woefully inadequate for the level of care that they provide. I also pay the 75.00/mo. For the insurance, and dont come out of pocket for much. I receive good discounts in cases like the crowns, when i do need to compensate. Ive never personally had a better dental experience, and if one does exist i would suspect that i had simply died; and gone to Heaven. If you’re looking for a new dental home, with a staff you’d be proud to call family, look no further. Sheila & Charles Hart

Common Questions About Oral Surgery
When would I need oral surgery?
There are many reasons you may need an oral surgery procedure. One of the most common is to remove teeth, whether you need to make room for dentures or another restoration or to avoid future dental problems. You may also need cosmetic gum surgery to make them more aesthetically pleasing. If you are getting implants, you may need a procedure such as a bone graft, sinus lift, or ridge augmentation to ensure your jaw is strong enough to support them.
When is oral surgery covered by insurance?
Your dental insurance or medical insurance may cover a portion of your oral surgery. We recommend you check with your individual carriers to find out what they will and won’t pay for before you have any work done. That way, there aren’t any big surprises in store for you. As a convenience, we offer third-party financing through CareCredit and LendingClub.
When can I exercise after oral surgery?
We recommend not exercising at all for the first 24 hours after oral surgery. Trying to do too much too soon can prolong healing. Vigorous exercise can loosen the blood clot on an extraction site and lead to a painful dry socket, for example. For the next few days, a patient should limit activities to low-impact exercises as a precaution.
