Oral Surgery and Painless Tooth Extraction in Riga

Oral Surgery and Painless Tooth Extraction in Riga

Professional surgical services

In our clinic, we perform extraction of both wisdom teeth and inflamed single-rooted and multi-rooted teeth. It is also possible to remove the remaining roots of a tooth whose crown has been completely lost.

Gentle tooth extraction

When performing an extraction, our specialists pay special attention to preserving the surrounding bone and gum tissue — this is especially important if implantation is planned in the future. A gentle extraction technique reduces tissue trauma, promotes faster wound healing and lessens post-procedure discomfort. Every extraction is carried out under local anaesthesia, ensuring that the patient feels no pain during the procedure.

Gum plasty and preparation for implantation

Sometimes, before implantation or another prosthetic procedure, the gum tissue needs to be corrected to ensure a sufficient and healthy volume of gum around the future implant or crown. If the gum tissue is too thin or insufficient, gum plasty is performed — a procedure in which the gum tissue is repositioned, augmented or reshaped using the patient's own tissue or biological materials. This not only improves the long-term stability of the implant but also provides a more natural and aesthetic result, since healthy gums are an essential foundation for a beautiful smile.

Gum plasty — smile line correction

The smile line is largely influenced not only by the shape and colour of the teeth but also by the contour of the gums. If the gums cover too much of the tooth (a so-called “gummy smile”) or their line is uneven, gum plasty can be used to correct the shape and level of the gums, revealing the teeth in a more proportionate way. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia and allows a more harmonious and balanced smile to be achieved without altering the teeth themselves.

Stress-free wisdom tooth removal

When should a wisdom tooth be removed?

If a wisdom tooth has erupted, it is prone to infections of the teeth and gums, because it is hard to reach and clean properly with a toothbrush. When damage to a wisdom tooth is found, it is most often extracted, because high-quality treatment is complex, lengthy and expensive, and there is a high probability that the tooth will continue to deteriorate.

How the procedure and recovery go

To remove a wisdom tooth, it is sometimes necessary to open the gum or remove part of the outer bone, after which the wound is sutured. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, so afterwards the patient can head home or to work without any particular difficulty.

For the first three days after the procedure, it is advisable to avoid excessive physical exertion. During this time, mild swelling and discomfort are to be expected — it may be harder to fully open the mouth or swallow saliva, and slight bruising on the skin is also possible. To ease recovery, it is recommended to apply an ice pack to the swollen area and to eat light, soft food (such as porridge or kefir). If necessary, the doctor may also prescribe a course of antibiotics.

Frequently asked questions

  • What to prepare for after tooth extraction?

    After dental procedures, swelling or mild discomfort are highly expected, problems may occur with full mouth opening and with swallowing saliva. Also, the patient may have a bruise on the skin. We recommend applying an ice pack to the swelling for a more successful recovery process. Avoid excessive physical exertion, eat light food (porridges, yogurt). Your doctor may prescribe a course of antibiotics at his\her recommendation.

  • How long to wait to put implants in place of an extracted tooth?

    In order to replace the extracted tooth, improve the functional and aesthetic appearance of the teeth, after 3-4 months in the lower jaw and after 4-5 months in the upper jaw, an implant can be screwed in.

  • What to do if the tooth is missing?

    Don't let a single missing tooth affect your entire smile - put an implant, which will not only visually replace the missing tooth, but will prevent the destruction ofadjacent teeth. A long absence of a tooth can lead to resorption of the jawbone.
