Medical Information
oral surgery
What is oral surgery?
Oral surgery is a branch of medicine that specializes in surgical treatment of the mouth and jaw. We place the utmost importance on the health and comfort of our patients, and use cutting-edge technology to provide safe treatment.
Oral surgery is a medical specialty that can handle surgical procedures, and can handle symptoms not only in the oral cavity but also in the surrounding tissues such as the jaw and face. Even if it is not a special disease, the extraction of wisdom teeth that have grown in in a complicated way and implant treatment are also included in the field of oral surgery.
Differences between oral surgery and general dentistry
Oral surgery is a specialized field that diagnoses and treats diseases, injuries, and deformities of the oral and maxillofacial regions. It is performed by doctors who have received special training as dentists and performs surgical and non-surgical treatments. The goal is to protect the oral cavity and improve the quality of life of patients. This field includes implant treatment, tooth extraction, and jaw surgery.
While general dentistry tends to focus on treating cavities and periodontal disease, oral surgery offers a wider range of treatments than general dentistry and also performs surgical procedures. General dentistry mainly treats tooth tissues such as cavities and orthodontics. In contrast, oral surgery also handles cases requiring surgery, such as wisdom tooth extraction and implant treatment.
Second opinions are also accepted.
We respond to consultations from people who are worried about diagnoses they have received from other clinics, such as "I can't understand the explanations at the clinic where I'm currently receiving treatment," "I was told my only option is to have my teeth extracted," or "I was diagnosed as not being able to undergo implant treatment."
