Extractions

Exodontics is the term used in dentistry to refer to the extraction of teeth, whether for decay, infection, trauma or orthodontic reasons.

Unfortunately, it is one of the procedures routinely performed in the practice.

Today, they are performed painlessly thanks to advances in anaesthesia techniques.

Depending on the complexity of the case, the surgeon may choose to perform a simple exodontia or a flap exodontia.

  • Simple extraction: As the name suggests, these extractions are carried out in a simple manner. After anaesthetising the area, special instruments called forceps and elevators are used to loosen the tooth so that it can be extracted.
  • Flap extraction: Sometimes, the tooth to be extracted is very weakened or has little remaining tooth structure due to caries or fractures. In these situations, it is necessary to make a flap, which consists of making an incision in the gum to achieve better access and a better support point on the tooth.
  • This type of surgery is also used to remove wisdom teeth that are retained in the bone or have failed to erupt completely.

Regenerative surgeries

This type of procedure aims to restore the lost bone in order to be able to perform oral rehabilitation.

When tooth loss occurs, the body's natural reaction is a process of bone resorption. This results in a bone with uneven edges that can prevent the correct making of a denture or the fitting of a denture. dental implants.

On the one hand, bone is incapable of regenerating completely and returning to its original state on its own. However, we have different surgical techniques and biomaterials that help to return the bone to an optimal state for rehabilitation.

These include bone grafting, which consists of placing healthy bone in the defect area, or the use of PRP (platelet-rich plasma) after surgery to improve the quality of bone and gum regeneration.

Mucogingival surgery

These surgical procedures are aimed at correcting defects in the gums and soft tissues surrounding the tooth.

One of the most common alterations are gingival recessions. In this type of lesion, the gum recedes and causes root exposure, creating an aesthetic defect which, in turn, can cause tooth sensitivity.

Fortunately, we have different surgical techniques to treat these types of lesions and help restore the gum to its ideal position. We also use hyaluronic acid to rejuvenate the gums and treat anatomical defects.

In addition to recessions, another recurring condition is the gummy smile, in which a large amount of gum is visible over the teeth when smiling. This defect can be solved by a procedure called gingivoplasty.

In this procedure, the excess gum covering the neck of the tooth is removed to give them a longer and more aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Gingivoplasty can be performed by the traditional method, using a scalpel, or by alternative methods such as laser or electroscalpel.
