Surgery Consultation

Oral Surgery – More Than Just Tooth Extractions

Oral surgery is often associated solely with tooth removal. However, modern surgical dentistry offers a broad spectrum of procedures aimed not only at eliminating problems but also at preserving natural teeth and improving oral function and aesthetics. At NOWA Clinic, our oral surgeons perform comprehensive diagnostics and select the most effective treatment methods tailored to each patient’s needs.

If you require removal of a cyst, abscess treatment, apicoectomy, pre-implant preparation, or another surgical procedure — schedule a consultation. During the visit, the surgeon will conduct a detailed interview, examine your oral cavity, assess imaging (X-rays or CBCT), and present appropriate treatment options along with a personalized care plan.

Patients are typically referred to an oral surgeon by a general dentist, orthodontist, or prosthodontist. Common indications for surgical treatment include:

  • severe tooth damage, advanced decay, or failed conservative treatment
  • presence of abscesses, cysts, or other pathological changes in the oral cavity
  • dental trauma requiring surgical intervention
  • implant preparation requiring bone grafting (osteoplasty)
  • orthodontic indications for tooth extraction
  • shortened lingual frenulum causing speech or bite issues

If you don’t have a referral or a clear diagnosis, you may first consult our general dentist in Warsaw, who can assess the situation and refer you further if needed.

What to Expect During the First Oral Surgery Consultation at NOWA Clinic

During your first visit, the oral surgeon will:

  • take a thorough medical and dental history
  • review existing medical documentation and imaging (X-rays, CBCT)
  • perform an intraoral examination to assess soft and hard tissues
  • discuss treatment options and potential outcomes
  • create a personalized surgical treatment plan

CBCT (Cone-Beam Computed Tomography) is one of the key diagnostic tools in oral surgery. It allows for precise 3D visualization of bone structures, tooth roots, soft tissues, and inflammation or lesions in the jaw area.

Surgical Procedures Performed at NOWA Clinic

We offer a wide range of oral surgery services, performed by experienced specialists:

Wisdom Tooth Removal
Third molars (wisdom teeth) often cause discomfort, inflammation, or hygiene challenges. We recommend their preventive removal even without symptoms. Due to their complex root structure and deep location, surgical extraction is often necessary.

Simple Tooth Extraction
Performed only when the tooth cannot be saved or when required for orthodontic reasons. It is one of the most common surgical procedures in dentistry.

Abscess Drainage
This procedure involves opening and draining an infected area within the soft tissues. It helps reduce pain, swelling, and the spread of infection.

Cyst Removal
Cysts are fluid-filled lesions that can damage nearby tissues and teeth if left untreated. Surgical removal helps prevent serious complications.

Apicoectomy (Root-End Resection)
This tooth-preserving procedure involves removing the infected tip of the tooth root and surrounding tissue without extracting the tooth itself.

Frenulum Surgery (Frenuloplasty)
A short lingual frenulum can cause speech issues, bite problems, or gum recession. The procedure restores normal tongue mobility and function.

Osteoplasty (Bone Grafting)
Used in implant preparation or to rebuild bone volume lost after tooth extraction or due to resorption. It ensures proper support for future prosthetic solutions.

Oral Mucosa Surgery
Procedures correcting the structure and volume of soft tissues, often performed before prosthetic restoration or to repair trauma-related damage.

Removal of Fibromas, Papillomas, and Epulides
Benign lesions in the mouth (e.g., on lips, gums, palate, or tongue) may affect aesthetics or function. Surgical removal is often recommended to prevent irritation or further growth.

Removal of Retention Cysts
These mucosal lesions result from impaired salivary gland function and are commonly located on the lower lip or under the tongue. Removal is advised when they increase in size or cause discomfort.
