Tooth extractions
While tooth extraction is often the last resort, it may be the best solution sometimes. We focus on preserving teeth rather than removing them, but if a tooth is beyond repair, we have the technologies and techniques to remove it safely. Our dental surgeon applies a local anesthetic to numb the area, so you don’t have to worry about pain and discomfort. Keep in mind, though, that after the surgery, you may experience a bit of aching or discomfort, but over-the-counter pain medication is more than suitable for solving that!
Wisdom tooth removal
Wisdom tooth surgery is usually one of the most common dental surgeries that 18 to 35-year-olds undergo. You typically require this surgery if your wisdom teeth are causing discomfort or oral health problems, usually resulting from growing at the wrong angle and causing damage to your other teeth. Depending on your specific case, this surgical procedure can be done under local anaesthetic relatively quickly.
Dental implants
If you’re suffering from tooth loss, we can replace missing teeth by placing dental implants that look and function exactly like normal teeth. Dental implants are permanent and strong replacements for your missing tooth or teeth. Dental implants are prosthetic teeth that connect to small titanium screws placed in your jawbone. It might seem like a daunting procedure, but we’ve done it successfully countless times and are here to support you every step of the way.
Oral biopsies
You might experience some common dental problems, such as oral lesions, that cause discomfort or even pain. If you’ve undergone dental treatment and the lesions remain, we recommend an oral biopsy to remove the abnormal tissue. We send this tissue to a pathologist who carefully examines it to identify any unforeseen health implications. It’s usually better to address these dental issues before they have the chance to develop into something worse.
Bone regeneration
If you’ve had a tooth removed or need one removed, bone grafting is another procedure we perform to provide options for tooth replacement. These grafts act as a long-term scaffold on which your own human bone can grow to provide a stable area of bone suitable for a dental implant, bridge or even a denture. With these innovative technologies at our Castle Hill dental clinic, we can have you smiling and chewing in no time at all!
Soft tissue grafting
Not only does bone support teeth and dental implants, but it also supports the soft tissue in your mouth. Sometimes over-brushing your teeth can cause the exposure of root surfaces, causing pain and discomfort when eating, drinking and brushing. In many cases, this soft tissue can be replaced by using patient tissues, animal-based alternatives or a combination of both. This procedure can also be helpful when preparing for getting dental implants to provide a long-term, healthy tooth replacement for many years of function and aesthetics.
Orthodontic tooth exposure
This is a minor surgical procedure to expose impacted teeth through small incisions. An impacted tooth refers to a tooth that hasn’t breached the soft tissue, meaning it hasn’t come through yet. Impacted teeth can lead to infection, abscesses, sepsis and general dental discomfort. Using X-rays or 3D cone beam imaging, our dentists can determine if your impacted tooth requires removal or whether they can move it into place.
Sinus augmentation grafting
If you require implants for the replacement of your missing upper molars and premolars, you might require a sinus augmentation graft. Similar to bone grafting, this sinus grafting procedure ensures you have bone stability for dental implants. The procedure involves lifting your sinus’ lining membrane to make room for a bone grafting material to act as a scaffold for your own human bone to populate, enabling dental implant placement.. We use our own state-of-the-art 3D cone beam technology to determine if you require a sinus augmentation graft.
