Oral surgery is a branch of dentistry that includes surgical interventions in the area of the mouth and jaw. Oral surgery is usually performed by an oral surgeon. These are specialists in dental medicine who have advanced education and training in oral surgery procedures.
The most common surgical procedures:
tooth extractions
installation of implants
bone regeneration
bone leveling
Sinus lift
apicotomy
Some examples of oral surgery:
As already stated, oral surgery includes, among other things, the extraction of a damaged tooth or root that cannot be cured. Se non riusciamo a curare il dente con il trattamento endodontico, cerchiamo di salvare il dente, cioè di evitarne l’estrazione, con una procedura chirurgica chiamata apicotomia, per cui asportamo chirurgicamente il terzo apicale della radice (apice della radice) solo se questo non è possibile, quindi l’estrazione del dente è l’ultima procedura nella terapia di alcune malattie.
On the other hand, surgical procedures that are applied even before installation of implant, and when it is necessary to replace the bone are: sinus lift and bone regeneration.
In the case of certain orthodontic procedures or teething difficulties, it is also possible to undergo a surgical procedure such as a corticotomy.
Oral surgery also includes procedures on soft tissue, such as cyst removal or oral-facial correction.
