Oral Surgery, Surgical extraction, Apicotomy..

Oral surgery can take place if you have one or more teeth that are completely destroyed and can not be treated. In this case you need to take out such teeth by means of surgical extraction. Such destroyed teeth are spreading bacteries and their presence in the jaw are not good because of potential abscess. If this teeth have acute abscess, it is recommended taking antibiotics, also after the tooth extraction.
 
Tooth extraction represents a little surgical intervention that leaves an open wound in the mouth. Steril tampons are placed on the wound that the patient bites and holds on for about ten minutes. After tooth extraction you shoud not irrigate or touch the wound. You should not consume alchocol and cigarettes after surgical extraction. After twenty minutes if the wound keeps bleeding you need to bite a new tampon, but if bleeding keeps on, an hour after tooth extraction, you should visit your dentist immidiately. Oral Surgery or Surgical extraction of a double tooth and left out roots are relativly often a common procedure in dental clinics. This procedure starts from abstracting the membrane around the molar, after which we extract the tooth or root if left out. We remove part of the bone so we can firmly and safely take the tooth out with special instruments. Afterwards we retrieve the membrane to its place, sew up the wund if needed and the procedure is over. We give antibiotics to the patient and sometime a cold compress outside.

Apicotomy is oral surgery procedure where the root top and damaged bone over it are cut out, like removing pathological contents around the root top. The hole that is created after such procedure usually is filled with artificial bone, membrane is placed back on and the wound is precisely sewed up. There are a lot procedures under oral surgery or extraction. Here we mention only those which are most commonly used in dental clinics. Normally, surgical extraction procedures are done under local anaesthetic. Nevertheless, they can also be done under general anaesthetic for complex teeth issues.
