Dental surgery is any procedure that involves alteration or adjustment of the teeth. The types of procedures range from endotontic (anything involving the root of the tooth) to prosthodontic (anything that is added to the teeth such as caps or implants).

Chances of requiring dental surgery can be reduced with proper dental care and hygiene.

There are some risks of dental surgery, as with any kind of surgery. They may include:

Infection
Nerve damage
Injury to other teeth
