What is advanced oral surgery?
A specialty that goes far beyond a simple extraction or a conventional treatment.
Advanced oral surgery covers a range of surgical procedures designed to treat complex problems of the mouth, teeth, jaws and the surrounding tissues. These treatments call for an individualized assessment and, in some cases, specialized surgical techniques and digital planning.
Health, function and aesthetics
It addresses the deepest structures of the mouth.
- Maxillary bone
- Mandible
- Nerves
- Maxillary sinuses
- Soft tissues
Goal: restore health, function and aesthetics to your smile.

REQUEST MY PERSONALIZED ASSESSMENTHow do I know if I need oral surgery?
The first step is a clinical and radiological assessment. Once your case has been studied, the specialist will determine whether surgery is necessary, which alternatives are available and which treatment is the most suitable.
Do I have enough bone for implants?
When there is significant bone loss, there may not be enough bone volume or quality to place implants conventionally. In these situations we recommend an assessment by a specialist experienced in complex cases, who can tell you whether alternatives exist and which procedure could rebuild the bone volume you need.
What options are available when I do not have enough bone?
Depending on your case, different bone regeneration and reconstruction techniques, implants placed in special positions, or other advanced surgical procedures may be considered. The choice depends on the amount and quality of bone available, your anatomy and the type of restoration you are looking for.
Can I recover bone I lost many years ago?
In certain situations it is possible to rebuild part of the lost bone volume using advanced surgical techniques. However, the possibilities depend on factors such as the degree of atrophy, your anatomy, the condition of the tissues and your overall health.
What is bone reconstruction surgery?
These are procedures designed to recover the volume and the condition of the bone that has been lost, so that you have a suitable base for a future oral rehabilitation. The technique used will depend on the characteristics of each case.
How is complex oral surgery planned?
Planning starts with a detailed clinical and radiological study. 3D imaging is normally used to analyze bone volume, anatomical structures and the specifics of your case. With that information, a surgical strategy tailored to you is designed.
Will I feel pain during oral surgery?
The procedure is performed under anesthesia and, when indicated, sedation techniques can be used. The goal is for you to feel comfortable throughout. After surgery some swelling and discomfort can appear, and their intensity will depend on the type of procedure performed.
Why is it necessary to remove a wisdom tooth?
Wisdom teeth are mainly removed when they have not enough room to come out properly, when they cause pain and inflammation in the gums, recurrent infections due to bacterial buildup, cavities, damage to neighbouring teeth from pressure, or crowding and misalignment of the rest of your dentition.
Why is a maxillary sinus lift necessary?
A maxillary sinus lift is necessary because it provides the bone height a dental implant needs to anchor firmly without harming the nasal structure. When a tooth is lost in the upper posterior area, the bone resorbs and the maxillary sinus (an air-filled cavity) expands, leaving a bone layer that is too thin.
Is the Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) technique important for surgical treatments?
The Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) technique is crucial in oral surgery because it speeds up bone regeneration and gum healing naturally. By using growth factors taken from your own blood, recovery after surgery is much faster, pain and inflammation are reduced, the risk of infection drops and it is 100% safe and biocompatible.
