Implantology
Dental implant treatment is a popular and effective solution for people who have lost one or more teeth due to injuries, cavities or other factors and want to restore their smile and dental function.
What does dental implant treatment involve?
Dental implant treatment is a dental procedure that involves placing artificial tooth roots (dental implants) in the jawbone. Dental implants support replacement teeth.
How is the procedure performed?
The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia and involves a surgical process of inserting the implant into the bone. After the implant is placed, it is allowed to heal and fuse with the surrounding bone tissue over a period of several months.
Once the implant has fully integrated with the bone, a custom-made replacement tooth (such as a crown, bridge, or denture) can be attached to it.
Dentoalveolar Surgery
Dentoalveolar surgery is a type of dental treatment that involves surgical procedures on the teeth and surrounding tissues, such as the gums and jawbone.
What does dentoalveolar surgery entail?
This type of surgery can be used to remove teeth that are affected or damaged, to treat gum disease, to prepare the mouth for orthodontic treatment or to place dental implants.
During the procedure, a dental surgeon will numb the area with a local anesthetic and make incisions in the gum tissue to access the tooth or area of concern. They can remove any damaged or infected tissue, extract a tooth if necessary or reshape the jawbone to prepare it for an implant.
What is the recovery time from this treatment?
Recovery time will depend on the extent of the surgery and the individual patient, but most people can return to their normal activities within a few days to a week.
Endodontics
Endodontics is an important and effective treatment to save an affected tooth and prevent complications that can occur if the problem is neglected.

What does the endodontic procedure entail?
The endodontic procedure involves removing infected or damaged pulp and cleaning the root canal (the canal through which the pulp passes from inside the tooth to the jawbone or jawbone).
After cleaning the root canal, it is filled with a special material to prevent further infections and protect the tooth structure.
What does endodontic treatment involve?
The endodontic procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia and can be completed in one or more sessions, depending on the complexity of the case.
After completing the treatment, it may be necessary to apply a crown or other protection to the tooth, in order to safeguard it and restore its function.
