YOU NEED AN ORAL SURGICAL INTERVENTION?
Tooth extraction
Tooth extraction is one of the most common oral surgical interventions. At Egressy Dental, tooth extraction is the last resort for dentists when no other preservative dental treatment can save the tooth. This can happen in the case of failure to treat gum diseases, advanced dental caries or teeth and roots that can no longer be repaired.

Wisdom tooth extraction
Wisdom teeth usually need to be extracted due to their adverse position and not because of dental caries. When they come out in an abnormal position, they often cause pain. For those who are lucky, wisdom tooth extraction is just like extracting any other teeth. In most cases, however, extracting wisdom teeth may be difficult due to their position. The average healing period following the extraction of the upper wisdom teeth is 3-4 days, while it is 5-6 days in the case of the lower wisdom teeth. |
Root apex resection
Root apex resection is one of the many ways of preserving a tooth. The procedure includes the removal of the infected tip of the endodontically treated tooth root and the cleaning of the surrounding tissue. This intervention can only be applied after root canal treatment. The affected area may become swollen after the intervention which is a normal reaction of the body. The patient may need to rest for 1-2 days after the treatment. It is important to adhere to the oral hygiene precautions and brush the teeth more often than usual. |
Cyst removal
Cysts grow constantly. The fluid inside cysts exerts pressure on the surrounding bone tissue that may consequently shrink and get thinner. Normally there are no symptoms, it can only be detected by examination or having a panoramic X-ray done. It may hurt, but it also can be completely painless. However, if it gets infected, symptoms do occur. Proper treatment is important, since it may result in the movement of teeth or even bone loss.

Bonegrafting
Bone loss can be caused by trauma, tumor, cysts, bone diseases or missing teeth. Bonegrafting can be used to regenerate bone tissue and increase bone support for loose teeth to keep them in place or to provide a firm foundation for future dental implantation or to strengthen bone tissue around a dental implant. |
Parodontitis
Parodontitis is a type of periodontal disease which is quite common today, caused by inadequate oral hygiene or genetic disease. The recession of the tissues that hold the teeth in place can be stopped in almost any cases, or at least slowed down. It is important to mention that periodontal treatments should be carried out on a regular basis, repeated at least every 6 months.
