Surgical procedures in the oral and maxillofacial region may be necessary when teeth need to be extracted, bone grafted, or implants placed. At our dental practice in Vienna, we plan such procedures meticulously and perform them using state-of-the-art techniques. Our goal is to preserve function, stability, and long-term dental health.
When surgical procedures in the oral cavity become necessary
Surgical procedures are used when conservative treatments are insufficient or structural changes are present in the jaw. This may be necessary, for example, in cases of severely damaged teeth, insufficient bone volume, or to prepare for implant placement.
Planning is based on modern diagnostics. Digital X-rays show the position of teeth, nerves, and bone structures. This allows for precise preparation of procedures and a better assessment of potential risks.
Individual consultation is an important part of our treatment. Before every procedure, we explain the process, possible alternatives, and the expected healing phase. This way, you can understand why a procedure is necessary and what the next steps will be.
