Gum diseases and surgery
Gum diseases and surgery
Gum disease
Oral health has a significant impact on a person’s overall health. Although dental caries, or tooth decay, has declined, gingivitis and periodontitis —which destroys the attachment of teeth to the jawbone—remain common.
Oral and maxillofacial surgery
Oral and maxillofacial surgery refers to the diagnostics of diseases, accidents and deficiencies of the bite organ and related tissues, as well as their surgical and other treatment.
Dental implant
A dental implant can replace a badly damaged tooth right down to the root. The implant is drilled into the jawbone, where it is left to ossify for 3-6 months. A crown is then placed on top and the treatment is complete.
