Surgery and Anaesthesia

Dental Surgery

Dental surgery involves operative procedures on the teeth, gums, jawbones, and oral tissues to treat various conditions. Common procedures include tooth extractions, root canal therapy, dental implants, and corrective jaw surgeries. Oral surgeons handle complex cases such as impacted teeth, facial trauma, and tumors. Local anesthesia is typically used, though sedation or general anesthesia may be required for extensive procedures. Advances in laser technology, imaging, and minimally invasive techniques have improved precision and recovery. Dental surgery not only restores oral function but also enhances aesthetics and overall health, playing a vital role in dentistry and facial reconstructive care.
