Dr. Vigna is an experienced oral surgeon
Don’t trust your wisdom teeth removal to just anyone! Dr. Vigna has 24 years experience as an oral surgeon and has performed thousands of wisdom teeth removal procedures. Dr. Vigna is the only oral surgeon in the Niagara region that provides general anesthesia for his patients, to ensure you’re fully asleep (and don’t wake up) during the procedure.
Fully Asleep
St. Catharines Oral Surgery is the only oral surgery facility in Niagara that uses Medical Anesthesiologists and provides general anesthesia for its patients.
No Chance of Waking
In our opinion, intravenous sedation is not recommended due to the chance of waking up! General anesthesia ensures there is no possibility of waking or being aware during the procedure.
Master of His Craft
Dr. Vigna has extensive experience performing wisdom teeth extractions. He has also performed research studies related to the risks of wisdom tooth extraction and knows how to mitigate them.
Are you in pain?
The Wisdom Tooth is the third molar in each of the four corners of our mouth. These 4 teeth often start to come through the gum in our teenage years. In 75% of the population, there is a lack of space in our mouth to accommodate the wisdom teeth and they become “impacted”. Impacted wisdom teeth may cause the following problems:
- Food trapping
- Pain
- Gum infection
- Abscess of teeth
- Headaches
- Radiating pain to jaws, ear and eye
- Formation of cysts
- Disruption of previous orthodontic work
Early removal of impacted wisdom teeth during teenage years (age 17 ideal) is recommended to avoid the problems listed above. Delayed removal increases the risks and recovery time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to have a consultation for my wisdom teeth if I had one at my dental office?
Yes. Everyone requiring surgery is required to have a consultation prior. This is for many reasons. Most importantly, Dr. Vigna needs to assess if surgery is required. Also, your medical history needs to be thoroughly reviewed since any surgery is a medical procedure.
Will I be in pain?
Pain is variable with all patients. Medication will be given to keep you comfortable.
Do I need a referral to see Dr. Vigna?
No referral is necessary. Just use the form below to get in touch with us!
Will I have nausea after my surgery?
Nausea occurs less frequently today with modern medications but can occur after having a general anesthetic. This can be treated with gravol.
Will I be okay to drive after I have my wisdom teeth removed?
If you are having general anesthesia, you will not be able to drive and will need a ride home.
Will I remember anything that happened while under general anesthesia?
No, you will be fully asleep and comfortable, with no recall of the surgery. You will wake up frozen with no pain.
What is the difference between general anesthesia and intravenous sedation?
During general anesthesia, you are fully asleep and being monitored by a medical anesthesiologist. With intravenous sedation, you may or may not be aware of what is happening during the procedure.
Is there parking at your location and do we have to pay for it?
Yes, there is plenty of free parking.
