WHAT IS SURGERY FOR MAXILLARY AND MANDIBULAR LESIONS
THE PROCEDURE
RECOVERY TIME

At Dr. Raffaele Castaldo’s clinic, surgery for maxillary and mandibular lesions represents a field of excellence, where surgical precision meets aesthetic sensitivity to treat benign bone lesions of the jaws. These growths, often cystic and benign in nature, may develop slowly within the jawbones, leading to bone resorption and structural weakening without showing noticeable symptoms until more advanced stages.
Surgery for maxillary and mandibular lesions is performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the size and location of the lesion. The procedure typically lasts about an hour and is designed to be as minimally invasive as possible, aiming to completely remove the lesion while preserving bone structure and surrounding tissues.
Following surgery, Dr. Castaldo provides close post-operative monitoring to ensure proper healing and to prevent complications. Ongoing support, along with detailed post-op care instructions, is essential to achieving optimal results and full patient satisfaction.

DIAGNOSI AVANZATA E
TRATTAMENTO PERSONALIZZATO

La scoperta di queste lesioni avviene spesso casualmente durante i controlli radiografici di routine, come l’ortopantomografia, che permette di identificare anomalie non altrimenti visibili. Il Dott. Castaldo, utilizzando le più avanzate tecniche di imaging, è in grado di diagnosticare precocemente queste condizioni, intervenendo prima che possano provocare danni più gravi o deformazioni visibili del volto.

FOLLOW-UP
SUPPORTO CONTINUO

Dopo l’intervento, il Dott. Castaldo assicura un attento follow-up per monitorare la guarigione e prevenire eventuali complicazioni. Il supporto continuo ai pazienti, insieme alle istruzioni dettagliate per la cura post-operatoria, è fondamentale per garantire risultati ottimali e la completa soddisfazione di ogni paziente.

VISITA
SPECIALISTICA

È essenziale che ogni paziente si senta supportato e informato durante ogni fase del trattamento,” afferma il Dott. Castaldo. “La mia missione è offrire non solo cure di alta qualità ma anche un’esperienza che rispetti e valorizzi il benessere complessivo e l’autostima del paziente.

ADVANCED DIAGNOSIS AND PERSONALIZED TREATMENT

These lesions are often discovered incidentally during routine X-ray exams, such as panoramic radiography (orthopantomography), which can reveal otherwise undetectable anomalies. Dr. Castaldo uses the most advanced imaging techniques to enable early diagnosis and intervene before more serious damage or visible facial deformities occur.

CONTINUOUS FOLLOW-UP SUPPORT

Post-operative care includes meticulous follow-up to ensure proper healing and prevent complications. Dr. Castaldo and his team offer continuous support to every patient, with comprehensive guidance throughout the recovery process, ensuring comfort and optimal outcomes.

CASE A

Surgical excision of a fully impacted tooth within the mandible.

A bone window is created laterally to the symphysis menti.

The impacted tooth is sectioned coronally and carefully extracted, ensuring the mental nerve is not damaged.

CASE B

Radiographic images and 3D mandibular rendering showing a large mandibular cyst enveloping a fully impacted wisdom tooth and the root of tooth 3.7.

In the image, a precise bone box has been created laterally from the retromolar trigone to the mandibular ramus using a piezoelectric instrument. Note the extreme precision of the bone window. 

Teeth 3.8 and 3.7 are extracted, and a thorough curettage is performed on the cyst-affected area of the mandible, followed by irrigation with Carnoy’s solution.

Deproteinized bovine bone is inserted to fill the bony defect, and the removed bone window is carefully repositioned to close the surgical site.

This photo shows the closure of the bone window using the previously removed segment to seal the slot.

The photo shows the teeth completely excised

Another image shows the suture in place at the level of the retromolar trigone.
