Extractions de dents et pose d'implants - Cabinet Dentaire de Rumine

We guarantee you pain-free care and consideration of your needs and concerns

Several treatment plans include care that involves surgical procedures.

Oral surgery is when the dentist performs incisions and inserts stitches as part of the following treatments:



  • Simple tooth extractions
  • Complex tooth extractions
  • Extractions of impacted wisdom teeth
  • Implant fitting
  • Extraction of the apex (the tip of the root), ranula, granuloma or cyst removal, etc.


In our practice, every instance of oral surgery involves the same stages.

  • Before the surgery

    Before surgery, we take the following steps:


    • A set of X-rays to confirm the diagnosis and evaluate inter-individual anatomical variability.
    • An overall assessment of your general health. For instance, do you take any medication that might affect the surgical procedure (e.g. anti-coagulants)? Are there reasons why surgery should not take place?
    • Detailed information regarding the aim and potential risks of the procedure and what it involves, as well as the potential consequences for remaining teeth.
    • Analysis of potential tailored treatment plans as an alternative to surgery, and incorporating it into a wider approach to care, if necessary.
    • An estimate of the costs involved in performing the chosen treatment plan, as every patient’s case is different.

  • After the surgery

    After surgery, we take time to:


    • Inform the patient of what took place during surgery and whether the procedure was a success.
    • Explain which medication to take to manage pain following the procedure.
    • Introduce a course of antibiotics, if necessary.
    • Explain the follow-up and arrange an appointment to remove stitches around ten days after the procedure.

In some circumstances, the X-rays may alert us to an unusual difficulty specific to your case. In these exceptional cases, we are happy to refer you to the maxillo-facial surgeon, Dr Arza, at the Cecil clinic in Lausanne, with whom we work closely.

 

The pricing policy for surgical procedures mostly depends on the complexity of the planned procedure. The initial consultation allows us to estimate charges.
