Precise Techniques for Preserving Your Smile

At Medford Periodontics, we specialize in tooth extraction and ridge preservation, ensuring that even when a tooth must be removed, your oral health and aesthetic appearance remain a top priority.

Utilizing minimally invasive techniques, we strive to preserve as much native bone as possible. This careful approach, combined with the use of advanced biomaterials such as bone grafts, membranes, and growth factors, ensures predictable and optimal healing, setting the foundation for future dental health and potential implant placement.

Commitment to Minimally Invasive Procedures

By employing advanced dental imaging and a minimally invasive surgical approach, we can precisely plan and execute each procedure. This strategy not only preserves the integrity of your oral structures but also significantly reduces the risk of complications, ensuring a smoother, more comfortable recovery process.

Questions? Find the Answer

What is involved in the tooth extraction and ridge preservation process at Medford Periodontics?

The process begins with a minimally invasive tooth extraction technique, focusing on preserving the native bone. Following the extraction, ridge preservation procedures are implemented using advanced biomaterials to fill the empty socket, supporting optimal healing and maintaining the contour of the gum and jawbone.

How do biomaterials contribute to ridge preservation?

Biomaterials, including bone grafts, membranes, and growth factors, play a crucial role in ridge preservation by promoting bone regeneration and stabilizing the extraction site. We only use top-quality materials that are selected for their ability to ensure predictable and optimal healing, providing a strong foundation for future dental implants or restorations.

What measures are taken to ensure optimal healing?

Optimal healing is supported through the use of advanced dental imaging to plan the procedure, a minimally invasive surgical approach to reduce trauma, and a closely monitored healing process. These measures minimize complications and ensure the best possible outcome for the patient.

Why is ridge preservation important after a tooth extraction?

Ridge preservation is vital for maintaining the natural contour of the jaw and gum line after tooth extraction. This process prevents the jawbone from deteriorating or collapsing, which can impact facial structure and the success of future dental implants or restorations.

Can anyone undergo tooth extraction and ridge preservation?

Most patients requiring tooth extraction can benefit from ridge preservation. However, a comprehensive evaluation will determine the best approach based on your dental health needs.
