Oral surgery
Oral surgery treats more complex problems of the teeth, jaw and surrounding tissues. At Primadent oral surgery is carried out at Škofije near Koper, in Celje and in Kranj; there are no waiting lists, and you pay for treatment yourself without a referral.
What it covers
Oral surgery is the branch of dentistry that diagnoses and surgically treats diseases, injuries and irregularities of the mouth and jaws. At Primadent it includes:
Which treatment you need, and at which clinic, is decided after the examination and imaging.
Apicoectomy
Apicoectomy is a procedure in which the tip of a tooth root is removed together with the chronically inflamed tissue around it (a granuloma or cyst), so that the tooth can be kept.
It is usually considered when root canal treatment has not removed the infection, when the shape of the canal prevents standard treatment, or when infection keeps returning. It is carried out under local anaesthesia: a small incision is made in the gum, the inflamed tissue and the root tip are removed, the canal is sealed and the incision is stitched.
Whether you need it is decided on the basis of imaging and a clinical examination.
Procedures
Teeth are removed when they cannot be saved, and wisdom teeth when they grow at the wrong angle, become stuck under the gum or cause pain – see tooth extraction.
A dental implant is a screw placed in the jaw that acts as an artificial root for a crown, bridge or denture – see dental implants.
A sinus lift is often done before implants in the upper jaw when there is not enough bone below the sinus: the sinus floor is lifted and the space is filled with bone material to create a firmer base for the implant.
