Services

General Anesthesia:

Using gas and medications (oral and IV) we can make your procedure more comfortable. Certain medical issues may require a medical consult or may keep this from being a safe option for you.

 

Tooth Removal:

Impacted and erupted teeth can be extracted without concern.  A referral from your dentist will be needed in most cases.

 

Dental Implants:

Working closely with your dentist we can replace missing teeth or stabilize your dentures with dental implants.

 

Bone Grafting:

Used to strengthen existing bone or replace lost bone in order to support dental implants.

 

Soft Tissue Grafting:

Oral tissue grafting can be performed to enhance the outcome of your dental implant.

 

Corrective Jaw Surgery: 

Upon referral from your orthodontist we can correct jaw alignment problems.  These procedures are completed in a hospital or surgery center and require an overnight stay.

 

Oral Pathology: 

Biopsy and definitive treatment of non-malignant lesions are routine oral surgery procedures.

 

Treatment of Facial Injuries:  

Jaw fractures are a common injury we can treat, but we can help you with other facial injuries as well.
