Alveoloplasty in Stockholm<\/strong> is a minor oral surgery that reshapes the sharp or uneven jawbone after tooth extraction. By smoothing the alveolar ridge, we create a comfortable base for dental implants<\/a> or removable dentures and improve long-term oral health.<\/p> Alveoloplasty (ridge recontouring\/augmentation) gently trims and shapes bony irregularities left after extractions, trauma, or gum disease. The goal is a smooth, rounded ridge that supports stable prosthetics and reduces sore spots from rubbing dentures.<\/p> We perform the treatment under local anaesthesia. Small adjustments are made to the ridge with precise instruments, followed by smoothing and thorough rinsing. Fine sutures protect the area and guide healing. For many patients, alveoloplasty in Stockholm<\/strong> can be completed at the same visit as the extraction to shorten the overall treatment time.<\/p> Mild swelling or tenderness is common for 2\u20133 days. Most patients return to normal routines within a few days. Eat soft foods, avoid smoking, and keep the area clean with gentle rinses as instructed. We schedule a follow-up to check healing and plan next steps, such as impressions for dentures or implant timing.<\/p> Complications are uncommon but may include temporary sensitivity, minor bleeding, or delayed healing. We review your medical history, medications, and habits to minimise risks. If needed, we coordinate additional treatments and timing for prosthetics like crowns and bridges<\/a>.<\/p> You may benefit if you have sharp bony edges after extractions, unstable dentures, or are preparing for implants or fixed restorations. If you already have a plan elsewhere, our clinicians are happy to provide a neutral second opinion<\/a> or a pre-treatment dental consultation<\/a>.<\/p> <\/p> Alveoloplasty is the surgical reshaping of the alveolar ridge to remove sharp edges and create a smooth base for dentures or implants. This improves comfort, fit, and long-term stability.<\/p> No. The area is fully numbed with local anaesthesia. After the procedure, most patients report mild soreness that responds to standard pain relief.<\/p> Initial healing usually takes 1\u20132 weeks. For implants or final dentures, your clinician will advise the ideal timing based on your case.<\/p> Yes. Combining the procedures can shorten overall treatment time and help shape the ridge immediately after the tooth is removed.<\/p> Not always. It is recommended when ridge contours would otherwise compromise implant position, gum health, or final aesthetics.<\/p> Pricing depends on how many sites are treated, whether it is combined with extractions, and if additional procedures are needed.
