Oral surgery (intraoral surgery) or dento-alveolar surgery refers to interventions performed in the mouth that involves surgery and require the presence of an oral surgeon specialist.
Oral surgery interventions can be very diverse, starting with the removal of small mucosal lesions, through the implantation of a dental implant, to the performance of serious dental bone replacement, but they all agree that the integrity of the tissues is temporarily disrupted. Oral surgery procedures usually involve flaps and require the insertion of suture(s).
Interventions of this type are surgeries requiring great precision and serious expertise, which are usually performed under local anesthesia, so they are not painful at all. The private oral surgery Helvetic Clinics Budapest welcomes its guests with extensive surgical services, where oral surgeons and periodontologists specialized doctors with international experience work. Our colleagues routinely perform oral surgery on both Hungarian and international patients in Hungary, Budapest.
Oral surgery should be distinguished from surgical procedures outside the mouth in the head/neck area, which is the maxillofacial field. These procedures are not covered by dento-alveolar surgery.
The most common procedures and oral surgeries performed in our clinic are tooth removal, surgical tooth extraction, wisdom tooth extraction, wisdom tooth surgery, crown lengthening surgery, various types of dental bone grafting, or even root resection.
In addition to general dental treatments, a treatment plan is also prepared before oral surgery, which is made by an oral surgeon during a personal consultation. The treatment plan will include the treatments to be carried out and their costs.
After oral surgery, we always make a check up appointment to check the healing process, such as the proper closure of the wound where the tooth was removed, the stability of the implant or even the condition of the bone graft.
In the case of more complicated tooth extraction or a broken root (dental root removal), you don't need to go to another institution, as our oral surgeons are well prepared for these cases. Whether you have a tooth under the gum or a root that has broken under the bone, our clinic will find an effective and quick solution for your problem.
Dental implantation is the most modern and gentle way to replace missing teeth. However, this state-of-the-art procedure can only be performed if the quality and quantity of bone is adequate. If for some reason this is not available, bone grafting may be necessary.
Replacing missing molars in the maxilla is an operation that requires great care. If the height of the mandible in the maxillary sinus area is insufficient, we can "fill in"/raise the lower part of the sinus with special bone substitute material to allow the replacement of missing teeth with modern implants. Sinus lifting can be performed in several ways depending on the amount of bone available.
It can happen that the wisdom teeth become inflamed and cause unpleasant symptoms. These problems can often only be completely eliminated by wisdom tooth extraction. The procedure requires considerable expertise and practice, and our oral surgeons can perform it without pain and with minimal discomfort.
This is what our dental practice Helvetic Clinics Budapest Oral Surgery offers. We look forward to welcoming you!
After various oral surgeries performed, there are some important things you should pay attention to.
The oral surgeon performs the treatments under local anaesthesia. After surgery, always be careful and do not eat until the anaesthetic wears off, as you may bite your tongue or lips.
After oral surgery, cooling the operated area is very important, as it has a painkiller and anti-inflammatory effect. Use an ice pack wrapped in a towel or kitchen towel, a coldpack, but do not overcool the area, take a break between.
During oral surgery, take prescribed medications as told by the oral surgeon. If you experience any problems, inform your doctor.
Adherence to proper oral hygiene is important. Follow the oral surgeon's instructions and clean the area where the surgery was performed with a soft toothbrush. In some cases, we also recommend using an antiseptic mouthwash (not recommended after tooth extraction).
After 7-10 days, the sutures are removed during a check-up appointment. The condition of the surgical wound is also checked at the time of suture removal.
Surgical interventions usually cause more or less anxiety and fear in our patients. These fears can usually be managed by creating a friendly atmosphere and explaining the intervention in an clear way.
There are situations when general anesthesia is still necessary to carry out the treatment. It is therefore important to know that oral surgery treatments can also be performed under general anesthesia at Helvetic Clinics, if absolutely necessary.

What does oral surgery deal with?
A dentist with a specialist exam in oral surgery (dento-alveolar surgery) performs most of the surgical interventions in the oral cavity. More serious surgical tooth extractions, surgical removal of wisdom teeth, implantation of dental implants, sinus lift, bone grafting, removing the apex of the root or cysts all belong to the field of oral surgery.
Is there such a thing as painless oral surgery?
Oral surgery is all about disrupting the integrity of the body to the outside world. These treatments can only be performed under anesthesia, as a result of which the interventions are never painful. However, it is worth knowing that swelling, sensitivity, or even pain may develop in the area treated to a greater or lesser extent after the interventions. There is always a way to relieve this pain with medication.
Does oral surgery exist in a dental practice?
Oral surgery (dento-alveolar) procedures can be fully performed in a dental practice, as we are only talking about intra-oral treatments. Of course, there are also head and neck (maxillofacial) surgeries, but these require a hospital background and cannot be performed in a traditional private practice.
Is an oral surgeon also a dentist?
A doctor dealing with intraoral surgery, i.e. a dento-alveolar surgeon, is also a dentist. They are oral surgeons because they specializes in this field and obtained a professional exam in it. In this sense, we are talking about a dental specialist, specialist.
