When a dental problem requires more than a routine procedure, you want a team that can handle it in-house — with precision, care, and a patient-first approach you can trust. Willow Glen is a neighborhood where residents have high expectations for quality in everything they choose, from the restaurants on Lincoln Avenue to the professionals they rely on for their health. That standard extends to oral surgery, and it is exactly the standard our team holds itself to. Aqua Dentistry serves Willow Glen patients from our Midtown San Jose office just north of the neighborhood, offering the full range of oral surgery services without the need for referrals to outside specialists.
Our practice is designed to keep your care unified — the same trusted team that knows your history, your comfort preferences, and your goals handles your surgical needs as well as your routine dental care. For Willow Glen patients who value continuity and relationship-based care, that matters. We also offer cosmetic dentistry services and can pair surgical outcomes — such as extractions or bone grafting — with implant placement or smile restoration in a coordinated care plan, all supported by our technology suite.

We offer a full suite of oral surgery services for Willow Glen patients, all performed in-house by our experienced team. From routine extractions to bone grafting that prepares the jaw for implant placement, we handle each case with the clinical precision and patient communication that surgical procedures demand. Our oral surgery services include tooth extractions (including wisdom teeth), bone grafting, ridge augmentation, soft tissue procedures, pre-implant surgical preparation, and treatment of acute dental infections requiring surgical intervention. When an oral surgery need arises alongside a dental emergency, our emergency dentistry team is equipped to respond promptly. For Willow Glen patients who need surgical care, we are ready to see you without sending you elsewhere.
Do I Need a Referral for Oral Surgery? No. Willow Glen patients can come directly to Aqua Dentistry for a surgical consultation. We handle the full evaluation, imaging, and procedure in-house — no separate specialist appointment, no gap in communication between providers, and no starting over with a team that doesn’t know your dental history. Keeping your care under one roof is one of the core reasons Willow Glen families choose us.
What to Expect During Your Oral Surgery at Aqua Dentistry
We believe that knowing what to expect before a procedure dramatically reduces anxiety and improves recovery. Every oral surgery case at Aqua Dentistry begins with a thorough consultation — we review your imaging, walk through your options, and answer every question before a single instrument is picked up. On the day of your procedure, our team works to ensure you are comfortable from the moment you arrive. We explain each step as we go, use appropriate anesthesia and sedation options to keep you at ease, and never rush a surgical case to fit a schedule.
After your procedure, we provide detailed, plain-language recovery instructions and follow up to make sure you are healing well. Willow Glen patients have full access to our team between appointments — if something feels off during recovery, you are not left searching for answers online. For patients whose oral surgery is the first step toward a larger restorative or cosmetic treatment plan, we coordinate that next phase seamlessly within the same practice, ensuring your care moves forward without gaps or delays.
Oral Surgery Technology at Aqua Dentistry
Our surgical suite is equipped with the technology that makes outcomes more predictable and recovery more comfortable. We use soft tissue laser technology that minimizes bleeding, reduces swelling, and accelerates healing compared to traditional surgical approaches. Digital imaging gives us precise pre-surgical views of your anatomy — so there are no surprises during a procedure. For Willow Glen patients who are anxious about surgery, we also offer sedation options that make the experience far more manageable than they expect. We offer flexible financing so that cost does not delay care you need. Request an Appointment to schedule your surgical consultation.
Oral surgery requires you to trust the hands and judgment of your provider completely. For Willow Glen patients, that trust is built through transparency, consistency, and a team that treats every case — routine or complex — with the same level of care and attention. Dr. Kumar and our team take surgical cases seriously, communicating clearly at every stage and never treating a procedure as routine just because we have done it many times before. Your comfort, your recovery, and your outcome matter to us beyond the appointment itself. We also offer full general dentistry services so that your surgical care connects seamlessly with your ongoing dental health. To learn more about our team and approach, visit our about us page. When you are ready to move forward, contact us and we will get you scheduled.
I have been coming to Dr. Kumar for almost 2 years now and I am so thankful to have found her and the staff at Aqua Dentistry. She is so incredibly kind and personable, always taking time to sit down and talk with you through all your options so you can make the best informed decisions. I never feel pressured or confused about the care I’m receiving, which is something I have had issues with at past offices. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Kumar to anyone!!
