ERADICATE DISEASE AT THE SOURCE

Cavitation surgery

DENTAL TREATMENT FOCUSED ON FOUNDATIONAL HEALTH

What is dental cavitation surgery?

Dental cavitations are areas of poorly healed or necrotic (dead) bone in the jaw that result from incomplete healing after tooth extractions or persistent infections. These lesions can harbor harmful bacteria and pathogens that can contribute to elevated inflammation, pain, and systemic health issues. Cavitation surgery aims to:

Remove Necrotic Tissue – Eliminating diseased bone and bacteria to prevent further infection.
Promote Bone Regeneration – Stimulating the growth of healthy bone tissue to restore structural integrity.
Enhance Systemic Health – Reducing oral sources of chronic inflammation that may impact overall wellness.

By addressing these underlying issues, we help patients achieve a solid foundation for both oral and systemic health.

WHAT TO EXPECT WITH CAVITATION SURGERY

Cavitation surgery procedure

This structured approach ensures effective treatment of cavitations, leading to improved oral health and reduced systemic inflammation.

Preparing & assessing

STEP 1

Comprehensive Assessment: We begin with a thorough evaluation, utilizing 3D CBCT scans to pinpoint areas of concern.

Surgical access

STEP 2

Precision Entry: A small incision is made with a laser to access the cavitation site, ensuring minimal disruption to surrounding tissues.

Debridement of Lesion

STEP 3

Cleaning the Area: Necrotic bone and infected tissue are meticulously removed, and the site is disinfected with ozone therapy to eradicate residual bacteria.

Surgical site treatment

STEP 4

Promoting Healing: Application of biocompatible bone grafts and Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) derived from the patient’s blood to stimulate natural tissue regeneration and accelerate healing.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR CARE

Common questions

  • How do I know if I need cavitation surgery?

    If you’ve had previous dental extractions, root canals, or experience unexplained chronic facial pain, it’s advisable to consult with our specialists. We utilize advanced imaging and diagnostics to determine the presence of cavitations.

  • Can cavitation surgery improve systemic health issues?

    By removing sources of chronic infection and inflammation in the jaw, cavitation surgery can positively impact systemic health, potentially alleviating related symptoms and enhancing the body’s immune response.

  • What makes your approach unique?

    Our practice is led by Dr. Alex Volchonok, a dual Ivy-League trained, Board-Certified Periodontist and Oral Implantologist with advanced training in Biologic surgery. We are the leading experts in diagnosing and treating jawbone cavitations using advanced training, technology, and biologic surgical techniques. Our team has completed specialized training in the U.S. and Europe, and we actively teach and develop new techniques that set the standards in the field.

  • What can I expect during recovery?

    Recovery involves a personalized post-operative care plan, including natural remedies, IV drip protocols and lympahtic drainage to enhance tissue regeneration. Follow-up appointments and imaging, such as CBCT scans, are scheduled to monitor healing progress.

  • Is cavitation surgery safe?

    Yes, cavitation surgery is considered safe when performed by experienced professionals using minimally invasive techniques. At TetraHealth, we adhere to stringent surgical protocols to ensure patient safety and comfort.
