Maxillofacial surgery<\/strong> is a medical field specialising in the diagnosis and treatment of problems directly related to the structure of the face and neck: from the ears to the collarbones.<\/p>\n

At our dental clinic, we have a team of experts<\/strong> in maxillofacial surgery with extensive knowledge of oral surgery, trained to perform complex extractions, grafts, and dental implants, among other procedures.<\/p>\n

Wisdom tooth extraction<\/h3>\n

Wisdom teeth are one of the most common causes of dental pain. Lack of space during eruption, malposition, or their relationship with other adjacent teeth are some of the indications for extraction. <\/p>\n

Third molars, or wisdom teeth, are often located close to important nerves and sinuses. Therefore, surgery to remove them requires skill and precision to avoid discomfort. <\/p>\n

When we extract third molars, we use local anaesthesia. However, if the procedure is complicated, we may administer intravenous sedation to help you feel more comfortable during surgery. <\/p>\n

Whether for health or aesthetic reasons, tooth extraction is one of our specialities. We will perform the procedure in such a way that you experience minimal discomfort during the process and take great care of you during the post-operative period. <\/p>\n

Some of the pre-prosthetic surgery procedures include the extraction of damaged or diseased teeth, correction of the shape of the jaw or maxilla, and removal of tissue that hinders the placement of the prosthesis.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, in orthodontics, some teeth do not come out on their own, so we must perform minor surgery along with orthodontic treatment to achieve the desired results.<\/p>\n
