Article Abstract
Preprosthetic surgery remains a work horse of dentoalveolar surgery. Advances in rehabilitation of the edentulous mouth with the use of endosseous osseointegrating dental implants and dermal matrix substitutes have changed the narrative of traditional preprosthetic surgery while maintaining some fundamental principles. An outline of the basic techniques in preprosthetic dentoalveolar surgery is discussed in the setting of these technological and tissue engineering advances.

Excessive gingival display (EGD), commonly known as a gummy smile (GS), is a cosmetic concern that involves exposing a significant area of gum tissue during a smile, rendering it unaesthetic. Gingival exposure greater than 3 mm is deemed aesthetically displeasing and often necessitates treatment to mask the gummy smile. The causes of EGD are multifactorial, including altered passive eruption (APE), hypermobile upper lip (HUL), short lip length, increased vertical maxillary component, gingival hyperplasia, dentoalveolar extrusion, and more.

Osteochondroma (OC) is a common bone tumour that rarely affects the mandibular condylar process. This pathology can show typical clinical features, such as facial asymmetry, deviation of the chin and dental inferior midline, changes in condylar morphology and malocclusion with an increased posterior mandibular vertical height. The management of condylar OC is a debated topic among surgeons.

Dental trauma very commonly comprises lesions that affect the teeth and their supporting structures. In pediatric ages, the main reasons for dental trauma are falls and accidents at school and while practicing recreative activities and sports. Fortunately, dental avulsions are not common; however, they are key factors in the loss of teeth if the issue is not adequately treated in a quick way, so is very important for parents, teachers, or any person that is present with a child during the accident to have knowledge about dental trauma, specifically regarding avulsed teeth, since the best treatment is reimplantation.
