Understanding Surgical Exposure
Surgical exposure is a procedure used to treat impacted teeth - typically wisdom teeth or canines that have failed to emerge naturally. This technique is often combined with orthodontic treatments to guide the tooth into the correct position in the dental arch.
How We Perform Surgical Exposure
Our procedure begins with detailed imaging to assess the position of the impacted tooth. Under local anesthesia or sedation, a small incision is made in the gum to expose the tooth. In some cases, a bracket is attached to the tooth to aid in orthodontic alignment.
The Benefits of Surgical Exposure
- Prevents Complications: Reduces the risk of infections or cysts from impacted teeth.
- Aids Orthodontic Treatment: Facilitates the alignment of teeth and corrects bite issues.
- Minimally Invasive: Performed with precision to minimize discomfort and recovery time.
