Establishing a Comfortable Smile Base

Establishing a Comfortable Smile Base

Pre-prosthetic surgery is essential to guarantee that dental prostheses, such as dentures or dental bridges, fit comfortably and perform as intended. After teeth removal, the mouth’s soft tissues and supporting bone may not always be suitable for supporting a prosthesis. Pre-prosthetic surgery is the process of carefully modifying and reshaping these oral structures in order to provide a supportive base for your replacement teeth.

The Importance of Pre-Prosthetic Surgery

The bone and gum tissue that remains after tooth extraction may be crooked, jagged, or overgrown. These anomalies may impede the appropriate fitting of implants or dentures, resulting in discomfort, subpar performance, and an unsatisfying appearance. Pre-prosthetic surgery aims to address and solve these problems by lowering the bone ridge, smoothing and contouring the bone, and extracting any extra gum tissue.

This preparation enhances the appearance and functionality of the implants by ensuring the dental prosthesis fits comfortably in the mouth. Pre-prosthetic surgery can bring about a significant transformation, significantly improving the success and lifespan of your dental restoration, regardless of whether you are getting standard dentures or preparing for dental implants.

The Importance of Pre Prosthetic Surgery

Pre-prosthetic Procedure

Pre-prosthetic surgery includes a variety of techniques, each designed to treat specific oral health concerns. The following are a few of the most typical pre-prosthetic surgery examples:

  • li-iconBone Smoothing and Reshaping (Alveoloplasty):
    The area of the bone where the extracted tooth was located may be uneven or jagged in its new location. This process reshapes and smoothes the bone to provide a level, even surface for the denture to sit on.
  • li-iconRemoval of Extra Gum Tissue:
    Excess gum tissue can occasionally cause issues with a dental prosthesis’s comfort and placement. By removing these tissues, the prosthesis will fit tightly and perform as intended.
  • li-iconTori and Exostosis Removal:
    The removal of bony growths in the upper or lower jaw that can interfere with the fit and comfort of dental prostheses
