It may be necessary to surgically remove the wisdom teeth for various reasons. This may be due to a lack of space in the jaw, inflammation or other damage.
The wisdom teeth often have no space in the jaw and cannot be integrated into the row of teeth. They remain covered by bone (retention) or only partially emerge through the mucous membrane (partial retention). Reasons for removing wisdom teeth include pain and pressure, inflammation, risk of damage or displacement of neighboring teeth and cyst formation.
If the wisdom tooth is closely positioned to the mandibular nerve, a three-dimensional CBCT X-ray is taken. This routine procedure is performed safely and minimally invasively. If desired, the procedure can be performed under twilight sleep or general anesthesia.
There are many areas of application for oral surgery, including root canal treatment. Despite proper root canal treatment, an inflammation can sometimes remain at the tip of the tooth root. During an apicoectomy, this inflammation is completely removed and the root canals are sealed tightly against bacteria. As the most important measure, the opened root canal is widened from below (retrograde) using ultrasound, cleaned and sealed against bacteria.
After a successful root canal resection, the tooth remains stable. This routine procedure is performed safely and minimally invasively. If desired, the procedure can be performed under twilight sleep or general anesthesia.
There can be many reasons why a tooth needs to be removed, e.g. destruction of the tooth due to caries, loosening due to periodontitis or orthodontic reasons. However,
tooth injuries after a fall, cysts and inflammation or a planned bisphosphonate therapy can also make tooth removal necessary.
We carefully check whether a tooth can be preserved before it is removed. If preservation is not possible, we remove the tooth as gently as possible in order to preserve all of your reconstruction options.
The tooth is removed under local anesthesia. For anxious patients, the procedure at MKG-Chirurgie Hamm can also be performed in twilight sleep (analgosedation) or under intubation anesthesia. We offer you gentle tooth removal with comprehensive aftercare in cooperation with your dentist.
As part of dental surgery, our services naturally also include the following procedures:
Normal X-ray images often do not help with difficult questions or unclear complaints. For these cases, we have the latest, low-radiation 3D technology in digital volume tomography. With these images, structures in the tooth, mouth and jaw area can be depicted three-dimensionally and thus often find the cause of the complaints.
These procedures and treatments are routine and are performed safely and minimally invasively. If desired, the procedure can be performed under twilight sleep or general anesthesia.
Cysts in the jaw can form for various reasons and are usually associated with a diseased tooth. Cyst removal is therefore often performed in conjunction with tooth extraction or apicoectomy.
These procedures and treatments are routine and are performed safely and minimally invasively. If desired, the procedure can be performed under twilight sleep or general anesthesia.
Occasionally, teeth that are still under the gums need to be exposed for orthodontic treatment. This is usually done in conjunction with the attachment of a bracket.
If desired, the procedure can be performed under twilight sleep or general anesthesia.
Temporomandibular joint disorders, or as they are often referred to, craniomandibular dysfunctions (CMD) are structural, functional and psychological dysregulations of the muscle or joint functions in the jaw. The symptoms can be found in dental areas, such as sensitive tooth necks, abraded teeth, pain or clicking in the jaw joint or jaw. However, temporomandibular joint problems can also trigger chronic pain in the surrounding area, such as neck and shoulder pain, back pain, headaches, migraines, tinnitus or painful and restricted mouth opening.
Changes in the oral cavity are diagnosed (e.g. by taking a sample with subsequent histological examination) and, if necessary, completely removed.
We improve the bone and soft tissue situation in order to create a good starting point for high-quality, functionally and aesthetically optimal dental treatment, for example with implants at MKG Hamm.
