What Is Pre-Prosthetic Surgery?
Pre-prosthetic dental surgery is a set of minor procedures aimed at preparing the jawbone and surrounding tissues for the successful placement of dentures. These procedures may involve reshaping the bone, removing excess gum tissue, or smoothing rough areas to ensure a more secure and comfortable fit for dentures. At Koslin & Kahn Oral & Facial Surgery, we offer pre-prosthetic dental surgery to help patients achieve optimal results for their prosthetic dental needs. Contact one of our Hoover, Alabaster, Jasper, or Clanton, AL locations to schedule a consultation and learn more.

Pre-prosthetic surgery is customized to address your specific needs. At Koslin & Kahn Oral & Facial Surgery, we begin by evaluating your jaw and utilizing advanced imaging to guide the treatment planning and procedure stages. We will discuss sedation and anesthesia options to ensure you are relaxed and comfortable throughout the process. The treatment may involve procedures such as bone and gum reduction, bone grafting, tooth extractions, or other minor oral surgeries. If necessary, sutures will be placed to protect the surgical areas during healing. We will provide a detailed treatment plan to ensure you understand each step of the process.

- Increased denture stability
