Tori Removal
Tori Removal
The Mandibular Tori is a series of large bony bumps (Exostosis), that occurs in some patients in the lower mandibular between the premolar and molar areas. These bumps may be the cause of speech problems, diet issues, and overall satisfaction and comfort. For patients who are looking to place dentures, the mandibular tori can interfere with a comfortable and secure fit.
Tori Removal MoroccoSurgery is done in our clinic with advanced Laser Technology. Using a hard/soft tissue laser Biolase Waterlase iPlus we can provide a less invasive surgery with cleaner and more precise incisions, fewer vibrations from hand tools, and faster recovery times. Other clinical benefits include less chance for bacterial infection and increased comfort during surgery.
What to Expect with a Tori Removal
For laser tori removal using Biolase Waterlase iPlus, patients receive a local anesthetic before the procedure. Because there is no heat or vibration, and very little sound, even patients who are anxious about dental work are comfortable with just local numbing. If you are still concerned, talk to your dentist about other options. Your overall comfort is important.
The dentist then uses the laser to access the mandibular tori, adjusting the laser to remove the bone. When the procedure is done, they will use the laser to “bandage” the area to promote fast healing. In rare cases, sutures are not necessary, but most patients do require a few stitches.
Laser tori removal is less invasive and offers the fastest healing times with fewer complications.
Tori Removal Complications
Laser tori removal comes with few complications, but, as with all surgical procedures, any time you open up the skin there is the possibility of complications. Common side effects may include bleeding, swelling, and some pain. Generally, you can control these with the guidelines above.
If you experience excessive pain, additional bleeding, and swelling that won’t go down, this could indicate a possible infection. If you experience fever and a general feeling of being unwell, call your dentist.
Mandibular tori can (and do) grow back. If there are underlying causes that can be treated (e.g., bruxism), addressing those may help prevent them from re-occurring.

Implants Supported Bridge FAQs
Don’t Smoke
Before surgery (three weeks)
Smoking and dental implants don’t go together. Smoking Is The Main Factor For Dental Implant Failure? We know smoking can be difficult to quit but we insist that patients stop smoking at least three weeks before their dental implants. On unusual occasions, we would ask you to stop smoking sooner, because it can interfere with your recovery, by reducing blood flow, which may prevent the incision from healing. We Highly Recommend You Quit Smoking Once You Commit To Your Dental Treatment
Don’t Drink
Before surgery (three weeks)
We know you will be on vacation and the all-inclusive bar might be tempting. You must stay away from any alcoholic beverage for a minimum of five days before your procedure. Alcohol causes increased bleeding, and the chances of infection, as well as depress immune functions and might interfere with wound recovery.

Teeth Bonding Treatment Alternatives
All On 6 / All On 8
When we can place more dental implants, All On 6 or All On 8 treatments might be ideal for the patient. If the bone permits two more dental implants, we highly recommend an All On 6 procedure to our patients.
Short Bicon Dental Implants
We use the Bicon System of Short Implants in order to take advantage of minimal bone levels and avoid vital structures such as the sinus or mental foramen, which usually require multiple visits.
Zygomatic Dental Implants
Zygomatic dental implants are implants that are much longer than conventional implants (40 mm – 50 mm), and are placed in the dense Zygoma bone or otherwise known as the cheekbone.
Mini Dental Implants
Mini dental implants in Morocco are a great option if you are not a candidate for normal implants. It is also a great option for our Snap-on Dentures treatment.
