Bone Grafting

Both minor and major bone grafting surgeries are performed.

The procedure of bone grafting can restore the implant sites having a poor bone structure which could be a result of the previous gum disease, injuries, or extractions.

The bone could be either the patient’s bone taken from the hip or jaw or could also be taken from a tissue bank.

To change the bone in the posterior upper jaw, sinus bone graft technique is used.

The process of guided tissue generation or guided bone generation is done to persuade more bone generation by dissolving the special membranes under the gum and thereby protecting the bone graft.

Dental Implants

Dental implants replace the teeth which function like normal and natural teeth by preserving the facial contours.

The facial structure can be effectively preserved and prevents the deterioration of bones when several teeth are missing.

The small implants are made up of small titanium posts and are then put inside the patient’s jawbone where the teeth are missing.

The implants are tooth root substitutes, and these are positioned inside the jawbone.

The titanium and the bone combine and act as a stronghold for the new artificial teeth.

Jaw Surgery (Orthognathic Surgery)

The surgery involves the movement of the jaws into a normal and perfect position.

The orthodontics aims at straightening the teeth, and the corrective jaw surgery aims at relocating the misaligned jaws.

These processes drastically improve facial appearance and make sure that the teeth are working properly.

The different problems should be evaluated, including the followings:

  • Open bite
  • Breathing issues
  • Problem with biting, chewing and swallowing
  • TMJ pain or chronic jaw
  • Protruding jaw
  • Speech Problems

Wisdom Teeth Removal

An adult has 32 teeth (16 on top and 16 on bottom).

But an average mouth has 28 teeth, and it becomes difficult to fit 32 teeth inside the mouth which can hold only 28 teeth.

Wisdom teeth (third molars) are the other four teeth.
It becomes necessary to extract the wisdom teeth when they are prohibited from correctly erupting inside the mouth.

These impacted teeth tend to take many positions to find a way that can allow the impacted teeth to erupt properly.

Many problems can arise due to the poor position of impacted teeth.
When the impacted teeth are not fully erupted, then the bacteria grow, leading to an infection and will result in pain, illness, and stiffness.

Serious problems of tumor or cysts can also occur, which can eventually destroy the healthy teeth and the jawbone.

TMJ disorders will lead to many problems which includes pain, grafting or clicking noises while opening your mouth, misaligned bite, repeated neck aches, and headaches and problem in opening the mouth wide.
