DENTAL SURGERY WARSAW

The implantation procedure is preceded by a consultation with an implantologist. Computed tomography is performed during the visit. This is an examination thanks to which the doctor is able to determine the height of the appendix in the area of the planned implant, its width, as well as the course of the nerve and the distance from the maxillary sinuses.
When examining the inside of the mouth, the dentist also evaluates soft tissues such as mucosa, periodontium, and overall oral hygiene. Once the patient is diagnosed in terms of his health, he is able to proceed with the implantation.
The entire procedure is performed under local anesthesia. The implantologist makes a small incision in the gum, which exposes the bone. Then he drills a hole in it with special calibrated drills. An implant is inserted into the resulting hole with enough force to ensure stabilization.
The entire procedure takes about 20 minutes. The implant integration time takes from 3 to 6 months. After this time, we meet with the doctor to unveil the implant. Under local anesthesia, the doctor cuts the gum in the place of the previously integrated implant and replaces the closing screw with a healing and modeling screw. Its purpose is to shape the gum around the implant, which takes about 2 weeks. After that, we proceed with the prosthetic part.

Eights are otherwise known as wisdom teeth. Their growth causes pain and discomfort, especially if they grow in the wrong position. Improperly growing wisdom teeth cause the risk of inflammation and damage to the structure of the adjacent teeth by exerting pressure on their roots.
Removal of wisdom teeth is carried out by a surgeon or, depending on the position of the tooth, by a maxillofacial surgeon. After taking an X-ray and evaluating the tooth, the doctor performs local anesthesia on the patient. The dentist incises the gum and removes the piece of bone that covers the wisdom tooth. Then he separates the roots of the tooth using appropriate drills. When the roots are loosened the tooth is removed with forceps.
The procedure ends with placement of a few stitches. The surgeon recommends a check-up after 7 – 10 days in order to remove the stitches and assess the healing of the site after the procedure. In addition, the patient is given an antibiotic and analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs to alleviate inflammation, improve healing and reduce pain.

Tooth extraction performed by a surgeon may result from the poor condition of the tooth and periodontium, as well as malocclusion.
An indication for tooth extraction may be advanced infection – when extensive decay reaches the pulp and can cause inflammation leading to purulent exudate.
The tooth may also be diagnosed for removal by an orthodontist due to overlapping teeth, making it impossible to put on braces.
Tooth extraction is performed under local anesthesia. The surgeon, proceeding to remove the tooth, first violates the ligament that surrounds the tooth and then, with the help of appropriate forceps, leads to loosening until finally the tooth is removed from the alveolar sack.
The post-extraction site is cleaned and the patient bites a cotton swab to stop the oozing blood. As a result, bleeding stops after 20 minutes and the placement of stitches is unnecessary.
Recommendations after tooth extraction include cooling the site after the procedure with cold compresses, eating soft and cold meals and also cool drinks.

Sinus Lift is a procedure that increases the amount of bone tissue. This allows implants to be inserted in areas where bone atrophy is most common. These are the posterior segments of the jaw. Performing a sinus lift involves placing bone material over the bone defect.
As a result, it allows for bone growth, and after about 6 months, i.e. the time of integration of the bone graft material, the introduction of implants of the appropriate length.
Bone regeneration as well as the sinus lift procedure is designed to rebuild bone tissue where there are deficiencies. A special membrane is also used when the surgeon inserts the bone material. This is a membrane that is designed to protect the inserted bone graft material from soft tissue ingrowth. After a period of 3 – 6 months, the site is ready to begin implant-prosthetic treatment.

The surgeon, after conducting a medical interview and taking the necessary photos before the procedure, determines the time and changes that occur. The procedure itself is performed under local anesthesia.
It involves the removal of lesions from the maxilla, mandible or changes in the oral mucosa. Depending on the size of the cyst, its removal is often combined with tooth extraction or resection of the roots of adjacent teeth. During the procedure, the cyst is enucleated together with the epithelium, and bone defects that may occur during its removal are supplemented with bone substitute material or, if possible, material obtained from the patient.
After each procedure, the lesion is sent for histopathological examination to determine the nature of the lesion and also to make an appropriate diagnosis.

Frenulum undercutting, both in children and adults, is completely painless. After administering local anesthesia, the doctor gently incises the membrane located in the specified area:

• Under the tongue (between the lower surface of the tongue and the bottom of the mouth),
• Above the upper lip (between the inner side of the lip and the gums between the ones),
• Under the lower lip (between the inner side of the lip and the jaw gingiva),
• by the cheek.

A scalpel, coagulation knife or laser can be used for the procedure. In all methods used, the bleeding is small, the mucosa heals up to 72 hours and there is no trace of the scar.

This is a branch of dental surgery that deals with the removal of inflammation and the regeneration of intraosseous cavities around teeth. Periosurgical treatment includes bone grafting with bone materials and membranes, gum and bone plication, covering gingival recessions, crown lengthening (this applies to patients with the so-called Gummy Smile) and SRP procedures – closed and open curettage.

There is a position of a maxillofacial surgeon at the Dental Fraternity Team. He is a specialist who deals not only with the treatment of diseases in the oral cavity, but also with the treatment of diseases of the facial part of the skull, neck and head.
The range of procedures performed by the maxillofacial surgeon is very wide. The basic procedures that can be performed in the conditions of the dental institution are extractions (removal) of retained teeth, resections of the root apex, removal of lesions that have appeared on the oral mucosa, hemisections, and surgical preparation of the patient for implantoprosthetics.
