Dento-alveolar surgeries are therapeutic operations performed in the oral cavity, which include: dental extractions, odontectomy or extraction of impacted teeth, for example the molar or canine, apical resections at the roots etc.
There are very difficult extractions, which exceed the competence of a dentist, in which case he/ she will direct the patient to a doctor specializing in dento-alveolar surgery:
· -teeth very destroyed by caries, partially or totally covered by the gum or bone
· -teeth with large chronic infections that require adequate curettage
· - the space between the root and the bone has shrunk almost to extinction
· - teeth located in the vicinity of the maxillary sinus (premolars and upper molars)
· - wisdom teeth, both erupted and non-erupted etc.
The preprosthetic surgical treatment represents the totality of the surgical interventions meant to help the preparation and improvement of a future prosthetic area (where a fixed work or prosthesis will be installed). They can be performed on both soft and hard tissues and include alveolectomy, alveoplasty, frenectomy, excision and tissue repositioning.
Pre-prosthetic surgical treatment of the soft parts (oral mucosa/ gums) can now benefit from laser procedures, which help a much faster and painless healing.
The preprosthetic surgical treatment of the bone substrate
helps to shape it in such a way as to ensure an improved and intimate
adaptation of a future prosthetic work/ prosthesis. For dental implant Highland Park area be sure to get the best.
