What is dental surgery?

Dental surgery is an essential branch of modern dentistry, dedicated to complex treatments that ensure the health and functionality of teeth. At Dental Sense, we pride ourselves on offering high-precision surgical solutions, tailored to the needs of each patient, using state-of-the-art methods and an approach focused on comfort and optimal results.

What are the main types of dental surgeries?

• Tooth extraction:
  The procedure for removing a tooth that can no longer be saved through other treatments, due to extensive decay, fractures, inclusions, or periodontal complications.

• Apical surgery (apical resection):
  The intervention of removing the root tip of a tooth affected by chronic infections. This is a life-saving solution for keeping the tooth in the arch, along with the restoration of the root canal treatment.

• Insertion of dental implants:
  A highly precise surgical procedure that inserts artificial roots (implants) to replace lost teeth. This process is the basis for durable and aesthetic dental restorations.

• Periodontal surgery:
  Surgical treatment of gum and bone conditions to stop the advancement of periodontal disease and ensure tooth stability.

• Bone grafts and guided bone regeneration:
  Interventions that restore lost bone volume, preparing the ground for dental implants or improving the stability of existing teeth.

• Preprosthetic surgery:
  Bone or soft tissue adjustments to prepare the dental arches for dental prosthetics.

What is the most common dental surgery?

One of the most common surgical procedures in dentistry is tooth extraction. From single-rooted teeth (monoradicular), to multi-rooted teeth (pluriradicular), to erupted, semi-impacted or impacted wisdom teeth, this intervention has become a comfortable, fast and effective procedure, thus eliminating any fear or discomfort for patients.

All about wisdom tooth extraction: procedure, stages and benefits at Dental Sense

Wisdom molars, the last teeth to appear in the arch, can often cause significant problems due to their position or lack of space.
At Dental Sense, wisdom tooth extractions are performed exclusively by dental surgery specialists, thus ensuring safe, precise and discomfort-free treatment.

When is wisdom tooth extraction necessary?

• Impacted molars: When a molar becomes stuck under the gum or in the bone, it can cause pain, inflammation, or infection.

• Severe cavities: If the wisdom tooth is affected by extensive cavities that cannot be treated conservatively.

• Recurrent infections: Frequent occurrence of pericoronitis (infection of the tissue around the partially erupted molar).

• Dental crowding: Wisdom teeth can push against other teeth, causing dental crowding.

• Formation of odontogenic cysts or tumors: These can occur around impacted molars.

• Damage to neighboring teeth: The pressure exerted by wisdom teeth can damage the roots of adjacent teeth.
