Oral, Dental, and Jaw Surgery is a specialized branch of dentistry that involves diagnosing and treating disorders and diseases of the oral soft tissues (tongue, cheeks, lips, salivary glands, etc.), teeth, jaws, and jaw joints. These treatments aim to improve patients’ oral health and quality of life with both aesthetic and functional goals.
Treatment plans are personalized based on the type of procedure and the patient’s needs, prioritizing their general health, comfort, and suitability for the procedure. Surgical interventions are performed using modern technologies and methods.
An ideal method for minor surgical procedures, local anesthesia numbs only the treated area, ensuring the patient feels no pain or discomfort during the procedure.
Typically used for:
After local anesthesia, patients can usually resume their daily activities immediately after the procedure.
Conscious sedation helps patients undergo surgical interventions more comfortably. Patients remain deeply relaxed yet fully conscious during this process.
During sedation:
Commonly used for:
For more extensive and prolonged surgical procedures, general anesthesia ensures the patient is entirely unconscious. Patients feel nothing and remain completely comfortable throughout the procedure.
Typically used for:
Procedures under general anesthesia are generally performed with the assistance of an anesthesiologist.
The choice of anesthesia method depends on the patient’s overall health, the complexity of the procedure, and patient preferences. DentX specialists provide patients with a detailed evaluation before every treatment to help determine the most suitable method.
When wisdom teeth remain impacted, they can lead to infections, cysts, severe pain, and swelling. These issues are often resolved with a simple surgical procedure. Wisdom tooth extraction under local anesthesia provides quick relief for patients.
In some cases, complaints may persist after a root canal treatment. Before extracting the tooth, surgical options like apical resection are considered. This procedure removes infected tissues at the tooth root to preserve the tooth.
Cysts in the jawbone or oral tissues are often caused by advanced decay, old treatments, or trauma. These cysts can be treated quickly and painlessly using modern surgical methods.
Facial swelling may result from infections or inflammation. Depending on the severity, it can be treated with medication or surgical intervention. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent more severe complications.
Jaw joint disorders (TMD) can cause pain in the head, neck, ears, and jaw areas. A multidisciplinary approach is adopted to treat these problems, addressing both the symptoms and underlying causes. Treatment plans are tailored to resolve the issues comprehensively.
