Dentoalveolar surgery frequently involves a multi-step approach that addresses the tooth, surrounding bone, and gum tissue together in a single surgical session. Dr. Helal and Dr. Colton at Norwell Oral Surgery and Dental Implant Center perform these procedures to resolve complex cases that require more than a straightforward extraction.
A dentoalveolar procedure may incorporate any combination of the following:
- Complete or partial extraction of a tooth
- Removal of damaged or excess bone
- Recontouring or smoothing of the jawbone
- Trimming or excision of soft tissue
- Surgical repair and closure of gum tissue
