Pre-Prosthetic Surgery for Dentures

Pre-prosthetic surgery is performed to prepare the jawbone for a partial or complete denture. Dentures rest on the jawbone ridge, which makes it imperative that the ridge is smooth for a comfortable fit. Oral surgeons at the Center for Oral Facial & Implant Surgery offer a variety of pre-prosthetic procedures by removing excess bone and sharp or uneven edges to enhance our patients’ experiences with dentures.

Pre-Prosthetic Procedures

• Bone ridge reduction
• Removal of excess bone to smooth and reshape the bone ridge
• Exposure of Impacted teeth
• Bone grafting
• Extraction
• Removal of excess gum

These procedures are relatively simple, and very comfortable. Please call our office today at Chattanooga Office Phone Number (423) 893-3333 for more information about our pre-prosthetic services.
