Osseous surgery is surgery that reshapes the bone around the teeth.
Osseous surgery is needed when a tooth cannot be saved. In cases like this, extraction is the best choice.
Osseous surgery relieves pressure in the sinuses, allowing them to drain properly. It stops the tissue from growing into the sinuses, and stops the tissue from growing into the nasal cavity.
Osseous surgery can:
- Preserve the natural tooth
- Prevent root resorption
- Eliminate infection
- Restore function
