The teeth/ roots removal can be simple or surgical. Surgical removal includes opening of the extraction site and sectioning the tooth in separate easily removed pieces. Providing future placement of implants or for maintaining the optimal volume of bone for prosthetic/cosmetic purposes the bone grafting material can be placed in the post-extraction socket. The grafting material is usually covered with special membrane and sutured over. This is called bone preservation procedure. When the patient had been planned for restoring with removable denture(complete or partial), there could be the bone irregularities(exostoses, spicules) under the gum in the sites of future denture bases. These irregularities should be removed before the impressions are taken for the denture. This procedure is called preprosthetic osteoplasty. When there is gingival overgrowth or it is necessary to get the access to the tooth surface covered by gingiva the electrosurgery can be used.
