Decayed teeth can be filled with dental amalgam, dental composite, dental porcelain and preciousnon-precious metals. Oral and maxillofacial surgery is a more specialized form of dental surgery.

Types of Dental surgery:

Some of the common types of Dental surgeries are listed below:

Endodontic Surgery:

1. Root canal (Polypectomy and Polypectomy)2. Apicoectomy - A root-end resection. Occasionally a root canal alone will not be enough to relieve pain and the endthe tooth, called the apex, will be removed by entering through the gingival and surgically extracting the diseasmaterial.

Dental Prosthetics:

1. Crowns (caps) artificial coverings of the tooth made from a variety of biocompatible materials, including CMC/PM(ceramic/porcelain metal composite), gold or a tin/aluminum mixture. The underlying tooth must be reshaped toaccommodate these fixed restorations

2. Veneers artificial coverings similar to above, except that they only cover the forward (labial or buccal) surface of ttooth. Usually for aesthetic purposes only.

3. Bridges a fixed prosthesis in which two or more crowns are connected together, which replace a missing tooth orteeth through a bridge. Typically used after an extraction.

4. Implants a procedure in which a titanium implant is surgically placed in the bone (mandible or maxilla), allowed toheal, and 4-6 months later an artificial tooth is connected to the implant by cement or retained by a screw.

5. Dentures (false teeth) a partial or complete set of dentition which either attach to neighboring teeth by use of metor plastic grasps or to the gingival or palatial surface by use of adhesive.

6. Implant-supported prosthesis a combination of dentures and implants, bases are placed into the bone, allowedhealing, and metal appliances are fixed to the gingival surface, following which dentures are placed atop and fixed iplace.

Common Dental surgery procedures:

Dental Implant: is an artificial tooth root used in dentistry to support restorations that resemble a tooth or group of teeth.Virtually all dental implants placed today are root-form endosseous implants. In other words, virtually all dental implantsplaced in the 21st century appear similar to an actual tooth root (and thus possess a "root-form") and are placed within thebone (end- being the Greek prefix for "in" and osseous referring to "bone"). Prior to the advent of root-form endosseousmplants, most implants were either blade endosseous implants, in that the shape of the metal piece placed within the boneesembled a flat blade, or subperiosteal implants, in which a framework was constructed to lie upon and was attached withcrews to the exposed bone of the jaws. Dental implants can be used to support a number of dental prostheses, including

crowns, implant-supported bridges or dentures.

Dental Bonding: is also known as composite or tooth bonding, is an excellent way to fix cosmetic and structural imperfectionsn the teeth. Dental bonding can repair cracked, chipped, and discolored teeth as well as replace silver amalgam fillings.Dental bonding can also repair misaligned teeth, providing a straighter, more uniform smile. It offers several benefits fopatients. It is quick, relatively painless, and long lasting. Dental bonding is also a great alternative to more extensive cosmeticdentistry treatment with porcelain veneers, bridges, and crowns. Additionally, the composite resin used in a cosmetic bondingprocedure is very flexible, expanding and contracting with the natural tooth to prevent cracks and tooth loss. Dental bonding isan excellent option for individuals looking to repair imperfections in their smile.

Dental bridges: Achieving a natural looking and realistic smile after tooth loss is possible with dental bridges. Dental bridgesare one method used by dentists to fill a gap created by a missing tooth (or teeth). Depending on the dental bridge type youchoose, the procedure and cost will vary. If you have questions about dental bridges, please read on for more dental bridgework info. A dental bridge is made up of two dental crowns for the teeth on either side of the gap and a false tooth in between

Natural teeth, dental implants, or a combination of natural teeth and dental implants can be used to support the bridge. Learnmore about the dental bridge procedure. Whether you are looking for a temporary or permanent tooth loss solution, dentabridges offer many benefits can be placed to improve the appearance and function of your teeth.

Accelerated orthodontics: is pretty much just what it sounds like- a way to achieve straightened teeth in a short amount ofme. The great thing is you dont have to compromise your smile results. With the right cosmetic dentist, you can get the look

you want in a shortened time frame, at a reasonable cost. The purpose of seeking out ways to straighten your teeth should goar beyond simply having a beautiful smile. Straightening your teeth helps create a balanced and healthy bite by encouraging

proper jaw alignment. Not only that, but straight teeth are easier to clean, making it harder for bacteria to hide. Teeth that arecrooked or crowded tend to have more problems with decay and damage. Crooked teeth on the top may not be lining up withheir counterparts on the bottom, and vice-versa. This can cause a number of problems from accelerated tooth wear to

chewing or speaking problems to TMJ and neuromuscular problems. In many cases, those with crooked teeth may actuallyend up spending far more to treat dental problems related to their crooked teeth than they would have spent to straighten

hem.

Orthodontic treatment:

mplants and implant-supported prosthesis also an orthodontic treatment as

t involves bones

1. Apiectomy: Also an orthodontic treatment as part of the underlying

bone structure must be removed.

2. Extraction: a procedure in which a diseased, redundant, or

problematic tooth is removed, either by pulling or cutting out. This

procedure can be done under local or general anesthesia and is very

common. Many people have their wisdom teeth removed before they

become problematic.

3. Fiberotomy: a procedure to sever the fibers around a tooth, preventing

it from relapsing.

Apicoectomy: also known as A root end surgery, is an Endodontic surgical procedure whereby a tooth's root tip is removed ana root end cavity is prepared and filled with a biocompatible material. This is usually necessitated when a conventional ro

canal therapy had failed and a re-treatment was already unsuccessful or is not advised.[1] State of the art procedures makuse of microsurgical techniques, such as a dental operating microscope, micro instruments, ultrasonic preparation tips ancalcium-silicate based filling materials. Removal of the root tip is indicated to remove the entire apical delta ensuring nuncleaned missed anatomy. To complete the apicoectomy, the endodontist will clean and seal the end of the tooth's canal. Thcleaning usually is done under a special microscope using ultrasonic instruments. The light and magnification allow thendodontist to see the area clearly. This increases the chance that the procedure will succeed. The endodontist then will takan X-ray of the area before stitching the tissue back in place.

Dentures: are false teeth made to replace teeth you have lost. Dentures can be complete or partial. Complete dentures covyour entire upper or lower jaw. Partials replace one or a few teeth. Advances in dentistry have made many improvements dentures. They are more natural looking and comfortable than they used to be. But they still may feel strange at first. In thbeginning, your dentist may want to see you often to make sure the dentures fit. Over time, your mouth will change and youdentures may need to be adjusted or replaced. Be sure to let your dentist handle these adjustments. Speaking and eating ma

eel different with dentures. Be careful when wearing dentures because they may make it harder for you to feel hot foods anquids. Also, you may not notice things like bones in your mouth.

Root canals: It refers to the process by which a dentist treats the inner aspects of a tooth, specifically that area inside a toohat is occupied by its "pulp tissue." Most people would probably refer to a tooth's pulp tissue as its "nerve." While a tooth's puissue does contain nerve fibers it is also composed of arteries, veins, lymph vessels, and connective tissue. It's important have root canal therapy done quickly. The bacteria will travel down the canal to the root and into the jawbone. If this happenhe pain of your toothache will spread to your jaw. Even more important, the infection can cause your jawbone to deterioratand weaken the structure that holds your teeth. The best way to avoid root canals is to take good daily care of your teeth tprevent the growth and spread of bacteria. Brushing and flossing are important. Just as important are regular trips to thdentist, to check for the first sign of decay or cracks that could eventually lead to an infected tooth. In this case, an ounce prevention really is worth a pound of cure!
