Oral Surgery
Painless procedures for complete oral health and a perfect smile.
Do you have difficulty chewing and often suffer from inflammation at the tooth root? Or would you like to finally resolve tooth loss but have been told you don’t have enough bone? Whatever your problem, our expert dentists can help you.
At Orto Nova, all oral surgery procedures are painless, precise, and safe. Although they may seem intimidating, most of the procedures performed at our dental medicine center are actually routine. Why are you in the best hands with us? Because our medical team is led by a specialist in oral surgery and implantology, a periodontology specialist, and a specialist in anesthesiology and resuscitation.
Oral Surgery: When is it necessary?
Constant changes occur in the oral cavity. Some changes require timely intervention to prevent further damage and/or avoid the development of functional and aesthetic problems.
Tooth extractions and removal of infected tissues from the mouth, interventions on the jawbone, and preparation for implant placement through bone tissue regeneration are just some of the most common oral surgery procedures, which are closely related to periodontology and implantology.

Orto Nova – For a Healthy, Painless Smile
Surgical Extraction of Wisdom Teeth – Alveotomy
Wisdom teeth, also known as third molars, are the last permanent teeth to erupt, although not everyone has them. Some people have normal, painless wisdom tooth eruption, while others experience serious problems, pain, inflammation, and shifting of other teeth. Sometimes, there isn’t enough space in the jaw for them to emerge, and they may grow in the wrong direction. In all these cases, surgical extraction of the wisdom tooth is necessary.
How Wisdom Tooth Extraction Works
Examination and Preparation
Before the procedure, a clinical and radiographic examination is performed, followed by a consultation with the oral surgeon to discuss your overall health, ask questions, and choose the type of anesthesia.
Choice of Anesthesia
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia to numb the affected area. If you experience anxiety or fear, conscious sedation is available with the assistance of our anesthesiology specialist.
The Procedure
The wisdom tooth extraction is painless and takes about 30 minutes.
Rest and Instructions for Optimal Recovery
After the procedure, a rest period of at least 30 minutes is scheduled in the relaxation room. Detailed instructions on postoperative care and wound management are provided.
Surgical Removal of the Root Tooth Tip – Apicoectomy

Sinus Lift Procedure
Long-term absence of one or more teeth in the posterior oral cavity region can lead to progressive loss of jawbone. Without enough bone to support them, the sinuses expand and occupy the space previously filled by bone. In this case, to successfully place implants and restore chewing function and tooth aesthetics, a sinus lift is necessary to reposition the sinuses. It may sound complicated, but at Orto Nova, the sinus lift is a completely painless and routine procedure performed by our oral surgery specialist.

Cystectomy
A cystectomy is an oral surgery procedure to remove a cyst. The cyst is often visible on the patient’s panoramic x-ray, while visible changes to the naked eye are usually concentrated around the tooth root.
