Oral Surgery
Biologic Extractions
Yet often, when teeth are extracted without properly cleaning the socket, the body can heal around a residual infection, creating what’s called a cavitational lesion. Harmful bacteria can thrive in these areas, generating powerful toxins that can travel throughout the body, wreaking havoc.
Unresolved jaw infections are a major contributor to toxicities that hamper the immune system.
Our comprehensive, biologic approach reduces the risk of these lesions forming. Our protocol includes
- A 4-week vitamin regimen to support bone healing and the immune response.
- Sedation, to make sure that your body is in a parasympathetic (relaxation) state for optimum healing.
- IV vitamin C infusion.
- An atraumatic extraction technique to maintain as much natural bone as possible.
- Complete removal of the periodontal ligament.
- Generous irrigation with saline and ozonated water to flush and disinfect the socket.
- Platelet rich fibrin (PRF) made from your own blood and placed over the surgical site to encourage revascularization, speed healing, and reduce post-op discomfort.
- Ozone gas infusion in the tissues to scavenge, decontaminate, boost immune response, and increase blood flow for healing.
Cavitation Surgery
Such diseased tissues are nearly impossible to spot on conventional x-rays. However, CBCT/3D cone beam imaging lets us accurately find and diagnose cavitational lesions.
The solution is to reopen the surgical site(s) so we can remove any dead and decaying tissue, and thoroughly disinfect the area so proper healing can occur. The surgical protocol we follow for treating cavitations is very similar to the one we follow for extractions:
- A 4-week vitamin regimen to support bone healing and the immune response.
- Sedation, to make sure that your body is in a parasympathetic (relaxation) state for optimum healing.
- IV vitamin C infusion.
- Removal of remaining periodontal ligament tissues and oily residues generated by harmful bacteria.
- Generous irrigation with saline and ozonated water to flush and disinfect the socket.
- Platelet rich fibrin (PRF) made from your own blood and placed over the surgical site to encourage revascularization, speed healing, and reduce post-op discomfort.
- Ozone gas infusion in the tissues to scavenge, decontaminate, boost immune response, and increase blood flow for healing.
