Oral surgery
Oral surgery is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on the diagnosis and surgical treatment of conditions affecting the mouth, jaws, and surrounding structures. Dr. Arnaud is qualified and trained to perform a wide range of procedures, from impacted teeth, complex extractions, tooth traction, impacted wisdom teeth, oro-sinus communications, and mucosal lesions to cysts and benign tumors of the oral cavity.

Surgery for cysts and benign tumors
Learn moreThe management of cysts and benign tumors depends on their size, location and nature.
Oral surgery covers a range of procedures used to manage common or more complex clinical situations. Among them, surgical tooth extraction is performed when the position, condition or degree of impaction of a tooth requires a specific approach. It is indicated when a simple extraction is not sufficient or when the tooth is partially or fully impacted within the bone.
Wisdom teeth are also a common reason for oral surgery. When they lack space, remain impacted or cause pain, infection or tooth shifting, their extraction may be recommended to prevent future complications.
The management of oroantral communications is part of the specialised treatments offered in this field. These openings, which may occur after a tooth extraction or as a result of disease, require careful assessment and appropriate closure to restore the separation between the oral cavity and the maxillary sinus.
Lastly, oral surgery is used to treat cysts and benign tumours of the oral cavity. These lesions must be carefully diagnosed and may require a surgical procedure to be removed, analysed and monitored under optimal conditions.
