What is Alveoplasty?

Oral health encompasses various aspects that contribute to your overall well-being. At Los Robles Oral Surgery, nestled in the tranquil town of Los Gatos, CA, we understand the significance of ensuring that your oral structures heal properly after dental procedures. Under the expert guidance of Dr. Roger Lau, our esteemed oral surgeon, we offer alveoplasty, a procedure aimed at achieving optimal healing and comfort by reshaping the bone structures following tooth extraction.

Alveoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reshape and contour the bone structures that surround tooth sockets. After a tooth extraction, the bone may have irregularities or sharp edges that can hinder proper healing and cause discomfort. Alveoplasty involves the precise removal of these irregularities, ensuring that the bone is smooth and conducive to proper healing. This procedure promotes the formation of healthy gum tissue and enhances the fit of dentures or other dental appliances.
