Surgical Applications

Surgical Applications: Advanced Oral Surgery Methods with Cyst Operation, Apical Resection and Frenectomy

In the field of oral, dental and jaw surgery, various surgical applications are performed to eliminate pathological structures and protect oral health. Among these applications are methods such as cyst operations, apical resection and frenectomy. These methods are of critical importance in terms of preventing infections, cleaning inflamed tissues and ensuring the optimal function of the intraoral structure.

Apical Resection

Apical resection is a minimally invasive surgical procedure applied to eliminate the inflammation, infection or blockages occurring at the tip of the tooth root.

• Features:
• Surgically cutting and cleaning the inflamed or infected tip of the tooth root.
• Preventing the recurrence of infection by filling the area after the resection.
• A procedure completed in a short time under local anaesthesia.
• Advantages:
• Contributes to preserving the function and health of the tooth.
• By preventing the spread of infection, it prevents damage to the surrounding tissues.
• Thanks to the minimally invasive technique, the healing process is accelerated.

Cyst Enucleation

Cyst enucleation is the procedure of completely removing the cysts formed in the mouth by surgical intervention. This method is planned according to the size and location of the cysts.

• Features:
• Determining the cyst boundaries and completely removing the cyst without harming the surrounding tissues.
• Applied under local anaesthesia or, if necessary, with the sedation method.
• Antibiotic treatment may be recommended to reduce the risk of infection after the operation.
• Advantages:
• The risk of recurrence is minimised by completely removing the cyst.
• Helps preserve intraoral function and aesthetics.
• It is a safe and effective method applied by expert physicians.

Frenectomy (Tongue/Lip Tie)

Frenectomy is the procedure of surgically removing the abnormal connective tissue between the tongue or lip and the gum. This intervention is important in terms of correcting intraoral function and aesthetics.

• Features:
• Removing the abnormal frenulum tissue with minimally invasive techniques.
• Ensuring patient comfort by using local anaesthesia during the procedure.
• Using laser-assisted surgical techniques when necessary.
• Advantages:
• Increasing intraoral mobility and improving functions such as speaking and sucking.
• Achieving an aesthetically more harmonious appearance.
• Fast healing and minimal discomfort after the procedure.
