The Importance of Pre-Prosthetic Surgery in Oral Care
Pre-prosthetic surgery is essential for optimal oral care. It prepares your mouth for a dental prosthesis, improving functionality and aesthetics. By reshaping bone, removing excess tissue, or exposing impacted teeth, we create the best conditions for your prosthesis. This process ensures more comfortable dentures and prevents future oral health issues. It can significantly enhance your quality of life by improving your ability to chew and speak, boosting confidence and self-esteem. At the Oral Surgery and Implant Institute KC in Kansas City, MO, we're committed to making your dentures feel and function like natural teeth.
Treatments Requiring Pre-Prosthetic Surgery
While many people might need pre-prosthetic surgery, the procedure explicitly benefits those needing dental prostheses. Here's a list of treatments that may require this surgery for a better smile and oral health:
Partial Denture
Pre-prosthetic surgery helps to create a smooth and stable base for the denture, ensuring a comfortable fit and optimal functionality.
Complete Denture
For patients needing a complete denture, pre-prosthetic surgery can help to prepare the mouth by reshaping the bone and removing excess tissue, ensuring an excellent fit and comfort.
Bone Smoothing and Reshaping
This procedure can remove any sharp areas of bone, creating a comfortable surface for your denture.
Removal of Excess Bone or Gum Tissue
Excess bone or gum tissue can make it difficult for a denture to fit comfortably and securely. Pre-prosthetic surgery can remove this excess tissue, better fitting your prosthesis.
Exposure of Impacted Teeth
If you have impacted teeth that are causing discomfort or affecting the fit of your denture, pre-prosthetic surgery can expose these teeth, relieving discomfort and improving the fit of your denture.
