Oral surgery is any surgical treatment done on your teeth, jaws, gums, or other oral tissues. It covers jaw procedures, extractions, implants, and gum grafts. A periodontist or an oral and maxillofacial surgeon often performs oral surgery. They are dental experts who have received specialized training in performing oral surgeries.
Other common reasons you might need an endodontics treatment include:
Dental surgeons create incisions along your gum line during this procedure and pull back the tissue from your teeth. They will then flush away the plaque and bacteria that have built up on your gums when they clean the roots of your teeth. The gum tissue is finally replaced and secured in place using sutures.
Tooth extraction is the most typical oral surgery procedure (tooth removal).
Your dentist will advise extraction if you have gum disease (periodontitis), severe tooth decay, issues with your wisdom teeth, or dental trauma. Removing some of your teeth may be necessary to prepare your mouth for prosthetic devices such as dentures.
Often periodontists and oral surgeons perform a tooth extraction.
