Common Oral Surgery Procedures
Tooth Extractions
Tooth extractions are one of general dentists’ most common surgical procedures. If a tooth is too damaged to save, extraction at MYDDS is often the best option for preventing the spread of infection and eliminating discomfort. During this procedure, Dr. Martinez will gently pull your tooth, careful not to disturb healthy bone or gum tissue.
Wisdom Tooth Extractions
Wisdom tooth extraction is a necessity for most people. The average mouth only has room for 28 teeth, so when third molars (wisdom teeth) erupt between 17-25, they rarely align properly. They can grow sideways, partially emerge from the gums, or remain impacted. The pressure from an erupting wisdom tooth may shift other teeth and disrupt the natural alignment of your teeth. When they partially erupt, the opening around the tooth allows bacteria to thrive, leading to an infection, swelling, and pain. Wisdom tooth extraction in Miami, FL, requires cutting the gum tissue to remove the tooth, intact or in several pieces, then suturing the gums closed. Rest assured. We strive to provide a gentle experience that exceeds your expectations and a competitive wisdom tooth extraction cost.
Bone Grafting
When you lose teeth, the underlying jawbone can atrophy or get reabsorbed. This often leaves a condition in which poor quality and quantity of bone prevents dental implant placement. A dental bone graft adds volume and density to areas where bone loss has occurred, enabling natural bone to regenerate. Dr. Martinez enhances this process by using platelet-rich plasma fibrin. This is created from a sample of your own blood and used to promote healing and tissue regeneration.
Sinus Lifts
Most people who have lost back teeth in their upper jaw don’t have adequate healthy bone for implants to be placed. A thin membrane lines the bone inside the sinuses and must be raised to place implants safely. Bone is added between your jaw and the sinuses during a sinus lift to enable dental implant surgery. One of several approaches can be used to achieve this based on your unique anatomy.
Dental Implant Surgery
Dental implants are designed to provide a permanent foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. After dental implants fuse with your underlying bone and the prosthesis is attached, they restore your ability to eat, speak, and smile with newfound confidence.
