• Exostosis - Tori Removal: Maxilla Tissue Rehabilitation
  Exostosis (also known as tori) is essentially a benign growth of bone that can develop along the sides of the jaw bones as well as on the tongue side of the lower jaw. These bone growths can be the body's way of responding to abnormally high biting pressures. The tissue is usually very thin and can become easily ulcerated from certain foods. See how periodontal tissue ablating procedures remove the unwanted tissue and how bone graft products help to refortify healthy bone. Footage created by Dr. Edward Brant of Long Island NY.
