Surgical dental procedures address complex oral health issues that cannot be resolved through routine care. These include extractions of impacted teeth, gum surgeries (such as flap or graft procedures), dental implant placement, bone grafting, and corrective jaw surgeries. Each type of surgery is carefully planned to restore oral health and function.
Common surgical interventions like wisdom tooth removal are necessary when the teeth are impacted or growing at improper angles, causing pain or infection. Gum surgeries may be required to treat severe periodontal disease, reshape gum lines, or restore lost tissue using grafts.
Implant surgery is another major component, involving the placement of titanium posts into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. This provides a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures. Bone grafting may be performed beforehand if the jaw lacks sufficient density to support an implant.
Dental surgeries are typically performed under local anesthesia, and in some cases, sedation is used for patient comfort. Post-operative care is critical and may involve pain management, dietary adjustments, and follow-up appointments to monitor healing.
Though surgical procedures may sound intimidating, modern techniques and technologies have made them more precise, predictable, and minimally invasive. They often provide life-changing results, preventing serious complications and preserving long-term oral health.
