The Essentials of Exposure and Bonding
At Milestone Oral Surgery And Implant Center in Mission Viejo, CA, Dr. Namiranian, our board-certified oral surgeon, expertly performs the exposure and bonding procedure. This specialized dental technique is used to assist the eruption of impacted teeth, typically canines, into their correct positions in the dental arch. The procedure involves surgically exposing the hidden tooth and attaching a small orthodontic bracket to it. This bracket helps to guide the tooth into place over time, using traditional orthodontic methods like braces.

Ideal Candidates for Exposure and Bonding
Exposure and bonding are often recommended for patients, usually adolescents or young adults, whose teeth have failed to emerge naturally due to being blocked by other teeth, dense bone, or excessive soft tissue. Dr. Namiranian evaluates each case at our Mission Viejo facility to determine the precise approach needed, ensuring the procedure is tailored to the individual’s dental anatomy and orthodontic requirements.
