Dentoalveolar Surgery in Davis, CA

Tooth Extractions - We offer single-tooth, multiple-teeth, and full-mouth extractions. Dentists cannot always save decayed, damaged, and infected teeth, leading to the need for extraction.

Teeth also sometimes need to be extracted for orthodontic reasons. When permanent teeth are not erupting in a desirable path, extractions of select baby teeth can be helpful in guiding the permanent teeth into place. For patients with severe crowding, serial extractions involve the extraction of both baby and permanent teeth. We work closely with your orthodontist and/or dentist in coordinating the timing for these types of extractions.

Extraction of wisdom teeth is also a common type of dental extraction. These teeth often need to come out when impacted, when they interfere with other teeth, or when they cause discomfort or infection.

Pre-Prosthetic Surgery - Patients may also need dentoalveolar surgery before receiving full or partial dentures. In this case, Dr. Albadawi may need to smooth the jaw bone ridge before they can receive dentures. Some patients have too much bone height or width, and even irregular bone can cause sore spots while wearing dentures. Ridge augmentation, tori removal, and reshaping gum tissue are a few types of surgeries needed prior to taking impressions for removable prosthetics.
