Apicectomies
An apicectomy can be carried out on a tooth that has suffered persistent infection after failed root canal treatment. Our oral surgeon will lift a flap of gum and clear the infection and part of the infected tooth before sealing the root canal.
Buried teeth
Buried and ectopic teeth may need exposure for orthodontics (braces) or may need removal. These procedures can be carried out by Mr. Hunjan.
Dental implants
Surgical placement of implants are available here – read more
Bone grafting
This may be needed to supplement bone volume around dental implants.
Biopsy
Biopsies are taken if a patient or dentist is worried about lesions in a patients mouth and further investgation is needed.
Cysts
These can occur within the jaws. They are benign fluid-filled sacs within tissues or bone. Our oral surgeon will lift a flap to remove the cyst. This will then be sent for examination under a microscope to confirm its identity.
Oroantral fistula, OAF
Upper posterior tooth removal can cause a complication whereby a connection occurs with the mouth and sinus cavity. Surgical repair may be needed to achieve closure.
