What is Surgical Treatment?

Surgical treatment is a practice in dentistry that involves situations requiring surgical intervention to resolve diseases, injuries or aesthetic problems. Such treatments are generally performed to maintain or improve the health of the teeth, gums and jaw structure.

Surgical Treatment Process

• Initial Consultation and Assessment: A comprehensive assessment of the patient's condition is made. The current condition is analyzed with X-rays and other imaging methods.
• Treatment Planning: A personalized surgical plan is prepared according to the patient's needs. This plan includes the type of surgery to be performed, anesthesia methods and the recovery process.
• Application: Surgery is usually performed under local anesthesia. General anesthesia may also be used if necessary. During the procedure, the dentist uses special surgical instruments to achieve the specified goals.
• The Healing Process: After surgery, the patient's recovery process begins. During this process, pain management and care recommendations are provided depending on the type of surgery. The recovery process is monitored with check-ups.
