Oral Surgery
Oral surgery encompasses a range of surgical procedures performed on the mouth, jaws, and surrounding structures to address various dental and medical conditions. This field of dentistry is crucial for treating complex issues that cannot be managed with conventional methods alone.
Common Oral Surgery Procedures:
Tooth Extraction: Removal of damaged or non-restorable teeth due to decay, injury, or overcrowding. Wisdom tooth extraction is a common procedure to prevent or address complications arising from these third molars.
Dental Implants: Surgical placement of titanium posts into the jawbone to support artificial teeth. Implants offer a durable and natural-looking solution for missing teeth, helping to restore function and aesthetics.
Corrective Jaw Surgery (Orthognathic Surgery): Surgical realignment of the jaws to improve bite function, correct deformities, and enhance facial aesthetics. This procedure often addresses issues such as overbites, underbites, and jaw misalignment.
Bone Grafting: A procedure to rebuild or augment bone in the jaw, often necessary before placing dental implants. This is particularly relevant in cases where the jawbone has deteriorated due to tooth loss or other factors.
Oral Pathology: Diagnosis and surgical removal of oral lesions or tumors. This can involve biopsies or more extensive surgery to treat oral cancers or benign growths.
Benefits of Oral Surgery:
- Improved Functionality: Enhances the ability to chew, speak, and maintain oral hygiene.
- Enhanced Aesthetics: Restores facial harmony and appearance through procedures like dental implants and corrective jaw surgery.
- Long-Term Health: Addresses underlying issues that could lead to more significant problems if left untreated.
