Impaction - Minor-Surgery In Chennai
Impaction in dentistry refers to a condition where a tooth is unable to fully emerge (erupt) through the gum line into its normal position in the mouth. This usually happens because there isn’t enough space in the jaw or because the tooth is coming in at an incorrect angle. The most commonly impacted teeth are the third molars, also known as wisdom teeth.

There are two main types of frena in the oral cavity: the labial frenum, which connects the upper or lower lip to the gums, and the lingual frenum, which connects the underside of the tongue to the floor of the mouth.This frenectomy minor surgery in Chennai is available at Best Dental Clinic – Dr N Deenadayalan T Nagar, Chennai and Dr Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic Tambaram, Chennai

Tongue-Tie Removal - Minor-Surgery In Chennai

This restricts the tongue’s range of motion and can interfere with normal functions like breastfeeding, speaking, swallowing, and even oral hygiene.

Bone Grafting – Minor Surgery In Chennai
Bone grafting is a specialized minor surgical procedure used to rebuild or strengthen the jawbone in areas where bone loss has occurred. This is a crucial step for patients who do not have enough natural bone to support dental implants or for those who have experienced bone depletion due to tooth loss, gum disease, or trauma.
At Best Dental Clinic – Dr. N. Deenadayalan (T. Nagar) and Dr. Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic (Tambaram), we use high-quality bone graft materials and advanced surgical techniques to ensure a solid foundation for your future dental restorations.
When is Bone Grafting Needed?
-
Dental Implant Preparation: If the jawbone is too thin or soft, it cannot hold an implant securely. A graft provides the necessary density.
-
Following Tooth Extraction: Often referred to as “Socket Preservation,” a graft is placed immediately after an extraction to prevent the surrounding bone from collapsing.
-
Advanced Periodontal Disease: To repair bone structure that has been eroded by long-term gum infection.
-
Sinus Lifts: When the upper jaw lacks height for implants, a bone graft is used to “lift” the sinus floor and create space.
Alveoloplasty - Minor Surgery In Chennai
Alveoloplasty is a specialized minor surgical procedure used to smooth and reshape the jawbone (alveolar ridge), typically in areas where teeth have been extracted or lost. This procedure is essential for ensuring the jawbone is properly contoured to support dental implants, bridges, or dentures comfortably and securely.Alveoloplasty minor surgery is available at Best Dental Clinic – Dr N Deenadayalan T Nagar, Chennai and Dr Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic, Tambaram Chennai.
When is Alveoloplasty Needed?
While the jawbone naturally heals after an extraction, it can sometimes leave behind sharp edges, uneven ridges, or bony bumps. Alveoloplasty is recommended to:
-
Prepare for Dentures: Create a smooth, rounded surface so dentures fit snugly without causing painful sore spots.
-
Dental Implant Success: Ensure there is a flat, stable foundation of bone for precise implant placement.
-
Post-Extraction Healing: Smooth out sharp bone shards after a difficult or multiple-tooth extraction to speed up gum healing.
-
Correct Jaw Irregularities: Reshape the bone to improve the overall “arch” of the mouth for better aesthetics and function.
Flap Surgery In Chennai
Flap surgery is a standard minor surgical procedure used to treat advanced gum disease (periodontitis). When deep pockets of bacteria form under the gum line that cannot be reached by regular cleaning, flap surgery allows our surgeons to access the tooth roots directly to remove infection and repair the supporting bone. Flap surgery is available at Best Dental Clinic – Dr N Deenadayalan T Nagar, Chennai and Dr Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic, Tambaram Chennai.
Why is Flap Surgery Necessary?
When gum disease progresses, the “attachment” between the gum and the tooth is lost, creating deep pockets. If left untreated, this leads to bone loss and tooth mobility. Flap surgery:
-
Removes deep-seated tartar and bacteria.
-
Reduces gum pocket depth to make cleaning easier.
-
Reshapes damaged bone to prevent future bacterial buildup.
-
Saves natural teeth from extraction.
1. Laser-Assisted Flap Surgery (LANAP)
We provide advanced Laser Flap Surgery, a minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgery.
-
No Scalpels or Stitches: The laser selectively targets and destroys only the infected tissue without cutting the healthy gums.
-
Faster Recovery: Since there is no cutting or sewing, the healing time is significantly shorter—most patients return to work the next day.
-
Regeneration: The laser stimulates the body’s natural healing power, encouraging the bone and ligaments to regrow around the tooth.
-
Minimal Discomfort: Laser surgery results in far less swelling, bleeding, and post-operative sensitivity
2. Flap Surgery (Without Laser)
Traditional flap surgery remains a highly effective and time-tested method for treating severe periodontal issues.
-
Direct Access: The surgeon creates a small incision to “flap” the gum back, providing a clear view of the tooth roots and bone.
-
Thorough Cleaning: Every trace of plaque and tartar is manually removed from the root surface.
-
Bone Grafting Compatibility: If significant bone loss has occurred, traditional surgery allows the surgeon to easily place bone grafts or membranes to help rebuild the jaw structure.
-
Secure Closure: The gums are positioned and secured with tiny sutures to ensure they heal tightly around the teeth.
