In this blog, we will look at the different ways in which an oral surgeon Abu Dhabi can bring you the most beautiful smile and give you the best oral health.
The procedures that the oral surgeon Abu Dhabi does
- Tooth extraction to prevent pain and infection
One of the most common procedures that oral surgeons do is tooth extraction. This happens in certain situations where you have teeth that do not fully emerge from the gum line. These are teeth trapped below the gum surface, and if they are left as they are, might lead to infections, cysts, or abscesses. Removing them will save the surrounding teeth and bone as well. The skill of the oral surgeon is required here in extracting impacted teeth safely and effectively. This is a delicate procedure because the surgeon has to be careful around the nerves or adjacent teeth.
- Dental implants
When you have missing teeth, the oral surgeon comes with a durable, long-term solution in the form of dental implants. This procedure requires surgical precision because the surgeon has to place a titanium post into the jawbone, and this has to be integrated successfully. It is the skillful placement of the surgeon that helps maintain the structure of the jawbone, preventing bone loss that is likely to happen with the loss of a teeth
- Successfully address TMJ disorders
The Temporomandibular Joint or TMJ connects the jaw to the skull, and disorders in this joint can lead to severe jaw pain, headaches, and problems with moving the jaw. The reasons could be anything, jaw misalignment, injury, stress and sometimes, even arthritis. Eventually, you will have problems with everyday activities like eating and speaking. Through a corrective surgery and realignment procedure, the oral surgeon restores jaw functionality, and helps alleviate discomfort.
- Correction of jaw misalignments
Underbites, overbites, and crossbites are common issues, but often they need to be addressed through corrective jaw surgery, or orthognathic surgery. The oral surgeon will correct the issue by realigning the jaw for better balance. He will use screws, plates, or wires to reposition sections of the jaw to improve alignment. The idea is to enhance facial symmetry, and improve the aesthetic appeal of your smile. When the jaw is properly aligned, there will be no more stress on jaw joints and muscles. This is also a very effective procedure to prevent future complications like temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder.
