TOOTH EXTRACTION

A tooth extraction is the complete removal of a tooth from its socket. It may be necessary for a number of reasons, such as severe decay, trauma, or overcrowding. During the extraction, the tooth is removed using special instruments and local anesthesia to reduce discomfort. Recovery time depends on the procedure and patient, but typically takes several days.

BONE GRAFTING

Dental bone grafting is a type of oral surgery procedure that adds new material to the jawbone to help support and anchor dental implants. During the procedure, new bone material such as autograft, allograft, or synthetic materials is added to the existing bone structure. This improves the stability of the implant, allowing for a more successful outcome.

IMPLANT PLACEMENT

A dental implant placement is a type of oral surgery that involves placing an artificial tooth root into the jawbone. This implant acts as a foundation for a permanent crown or bridge. The procedure typically involves making an incision in the gums, then preparing the jawbone to receive the implant. After placement, the implant must be allowed to heal and integrate with the bone before the permanent crown or bridge is placed.
