Tooth Extraction Treatment in Navi Mumbai

Surgical Extractions

A surgical extraction is the process of removal of teeth that involves additional surgical procedures that are not performed while carrying out routine extractions. One of the following steps may be included in surgical extractions:

  • Gum tissue flap
    An incision is made to outline a gum section. The tissue is then peeled back, allowing the dentist to access the bone tissue or the underlying teeth.
  • Ostectomy
    Removing a part of the bone may be required to give your dentist a better view of the affected tooth. It may also be done to create an opening to extract the tooth.
  • Tooth sectioning
    This process involves breaking the tooth into pieces to facilitate its removal.

A surgical extraction is performed in several situations where the tooth extraction is expected to be more challenging than what is encountered routinely. Additional surgical procedures are required to decrease the difficulty, complexity, or risk of the extraction. A decision to carry out surgical extraction may be planned or taken in an emergency.

It is performed when there are severely fragile or broken teeth, when teeth have abnormal root morphology, in case of impacted teeth, or dense bone tissue around the affected tooth.

If your tooth is required to undergo surgical extraction, do not worry. With the advances in the field of dental surgery, modern procedures and anaesthetic facilities are available to make the whole process easier and less painful. The extraction will help you enjoy better oral health in the long run.
