Surgical dentistry

Modern surgical dentistry deals with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of oral diseases requiring surgical intervention. Its task is to solve problems associated with damage or anomalies of the teeth, gums, jaws and soft tissues.

Surgical dentistry: basic services of a dental surgeon

The main services offered by surgical dentistry are:

• tooth extraction — the procedure is performed when it is not possible to save or treat your tooth and it is more expedient to remove it with the subsequent installation of an implant;
• wisdom teeth extraction — it is performed when the wisdom teeth are severely damaged and cannot be restored, as often the eights do not grow properly and there is not enough space on the jaw for them, so it is necessary to remove the wisdom tooth to avoid pain and distortion of the row (surgical opening of the gum and crushing of the eights may be performed);
• dental implantation (implantation of an artificial root into the bone tissue, on which a crown is subsequently fixed) — the procedure allows replacing lost teeth and restoring their chewing function, and if there is not enough bone tissue to install an implant, its augmentation (augmentation) is performed;
• treatment of gum diseases and restoration of their structure — periodontal surgery deals with such issues when it is necessary to remove inflamed tissues;
• resection of the root tip and removal of affected tissues in case of inflammation or cysts — a dental surgeon performs the operation to save the tooth if standard root canal treatment has failed;
• removing cysts and granulomas from the jaws or soft tissues to prevent them from growing and spreading infection;
• preparing for dentures — to create the correct shape of the jaw for dentures, in some cases alveoloplasty (correction of the outgrowth of bone on which the teeth sit) is performed, and sometimes bite correction, which means restoring the correct position of the teeth and jaws, is necessary;
• treatment of trauma to the jaw and face in case of fractures, injuries to teeth and soft tissues, as well as reconstructive surgeries to restore the functionality and aesthetics of the face;
• removal of retained (non-erupted) and dystopian (misaligned) teeth to prevent complications;
• correction of shortened frenulum of the tongue or lip to improve diction, correct the bite;
• removal of neoplasms — benign (papillomas, fibromas) and malignant (tumors);
• correction of the bite to eliminate functional and aesthetic disorders.

Among all directions, which provides dentistry, surgery is designed directly to ensure the health of the oral cavity, solving aesthetic and functional problems.

Surgical treatment in dentistry: indications

Surgical treatment in dentistry is prescribed for various diseases and pathologies that can not be eliminated with therapeutic methods:

• the need for tooth extraction in case of severe tooth destruction and chronic infections, malposition and partial eruption of the eighth tooth;
• gum pathologies and severe forms of periodontal disease;
