Dental & Periodontal Surgery
Extraction
Many reasons can lead to a tooth loss – extensive trauma, decay, gum disease or badly cracked or broken teeth. When a tooth is deemed non restorable, extraction the tooth (pulling) is an actual therapy with benefit. Extracting an infected tooth is the most effective way to stop the infection. When a tooth is removed due to advanced periodontitis we create a better environment for the adjacent tooth that is spared from the condition. Dr. Aljonaidy at Blossom Dental has great experience in performing a pain free teeth extractions.
Wisdom Teeth Extraction
When wisdom teeth are misaligned, they can crowd or damage adjacent teeth, the jawbone, or nerves.
Wisdom teeth also can be impacted or only partially break through or erupt through the gum. Partial eruption of the wisdom teeth allows an opening for bacteria to enter around the tooth and cause an infection, which results in pain, swelling, jaw stiffness, and general illness. Partially erupted teeth are also more prone to tooth decay and gum disease because their hard-to-reach location and awkward positioning makes brushing and flossing difficult.
Dr. Aljonaidy is skilled to perform most third molar extractions when indicated, 3D X-ray with Green technology is used to insure a safer and a more accurate extraction procedure. With great passion and skills along with practicing comfort dentistry,she recommends nitrous gas relaxing method to assure ultimate comfort.
Bone grafting and socket preservation
The graft is applied to the empty hole immediately after a tooth extraction and is secured using a pellet of collagen and dissolvable sutures (stitches). While the graft material has a granular form when used in this fashion (similar to the consistency of sand), it is retained in the tooth socket by the collagen. This allows the area to have sufficient bone to add a tooth in place of the lost one. Best time to perform the procedure is on the day of extraction. Grafting on the same day simplify the future steps of tooth replacement.
Periodontal Surgery
What is gum recession?
Gum recession refers to the loss of gum tissue along the gumline. This can occur as a result of periodontal disease (gingivitis, periodontitis, advanced periodontitis), the natural aging process, or abrasive habits when it comes to brushing the teeth.
Why should gum recession be taken seriously?
When gum recession occurs, the root structure of the tooth becomes exposed. This means that tooth decay and other problems can affect the teeth along the gumline and beneath it. Since healthy gums are essential for a healthy mouth, getting gum recession treated is important for lasting dental wellness.
