Surgical Orthodontic Procedures | Enhancing Orthodontic Outcomes
Orthodontic treatment often requires more than braces or aligners alone. In certain cases, surgical intervention is essential to guide tooth movement, correct alignment, and achieve predictable, efficient results. Our team specializes in surgical procedures that complement orthodontic care, combining precision, safety, and advanced techniques to enhance both function and aesthetics.
Common Surgical Orthodontic Procedures
- Exposure of Impacted Teeth
Sometimes, teeth—most commonly canines—fail to erupt naturally. Surgical exposure involves carefully uncovering the impacted tooth and, when necessary, attaching an orthodontic bracket or chain to guide it into its proper position. This procedure preserves the natural tooth and ensures it can be aligned properly within the dental arch. - Surgical Tooth Exposure & Bonding
Beyond canines, other impacted teeth or delayed eruptions can benefit from a combination of surgical exposure and immediate orthodontic attachment, allowing controlled tooth movement while minimizing treatment time. - Accelerated Orthodontic Techniques
Certain surgical interventions, such as corticotomy-assisted orthodontics or piezocision, can speed up tooth movement These procedures involve minor surgical adjustments to the bone and surrounding tissues, enhancing orthodontic efficiency without compromising stability or health. - Orthodontic Anchorage Devices
In some complex cases, temporary anchorage devices (TADs) or mini-implants are surgically placed to provide stable points for moving teeth, enabling precise control of tooth positioning that would not be achievable with braces alone.
Benefits of Surgical Orthodontics
Facilitates proper eruption and alignment of impacted or misaligned teeth.
Enhances treatment efficiency and can reduce overall orthodontic time.
Improves predictability and stability of final results.
Maintains natural teeth whenever possible, avoiding unnecessary extractions.
