What is an Extraction?
Some reasons why teeth need to be extracted are that they get to a stage when they can no longer be fixed and there are no other alternatives. That may be attributed to advanced gum disease, a severely fractured tooth. You may also need to have them removed for elective reasons....
- Orthodontic room required
- Diseased teeth that are going to give you further problems health wise
- Unaffordable and the consequence of leaving them may outweigh the benefits
- Wisdom Teeth
A wide array of surgical procedures are also performed by Dr. Sanchez which includes:
- Surgical removal of erupted and impacted:
involve the removal of teeth that cannot be easily accessed, either because they have broken under the gum line or because they have not erupted fully.
- Biopsy of soft oral tissue:
oral tissue biopsy may be necessary for lesions that cannot be diagnosed on the basis of the history and clinical findings alone.
- Removal of torus palatinus and mandibularis:
Torus is a bony protrusion on the palate or on the mandible.
- Incision and drainage of abscess:
Incision made intraorally and dissection is extended into adjacent fascial space(s) to provide adequate drainage of abscess or cellulitis.
- Frenulectomy:
The frenum may be excised when the tongue has limited mobility; for large diastemas (spaces) between teeth; when the frenum interferes with a prosthetic appliance; or when it is the etiology of periodontal tissue disease.
- Excision of pericoronal gingiva:
surgical removal of inflammatory or hypertophied tissues surrounding partially erupted/impacted teeth.
