Oral Surgery Services

Tooth Extractions

Our oral surgeons routinely perform tooth extractions for children and adult patients who have impacted teeth, damaged teeth, or other conditions.

Dental Implants

A long-term tooth replacement, dental implants act as artificial roots and are placed within the jaw to support a natural-looking tooth restoration.

Bone Grafting

Bone grafting from our specialty team replenishes bone loss in the jaw to enable implant surgery, improve function, and maintain contours of the face.

Sinus Lifts

Sinus augmentation procedures are performed to raise or fortify the maxillary sinus floor and create the space required to place a dental implant.

Apicoectomy

Our expert team offers apicoectomy procedures to surgically remove the root tips of teeth that remain infected after receiving root canal treatment.

Gum Contouring

When overgrown or uneven gums affect the look of the smile, our team offers gum contouring to reshape and sculpt the gumline for improved aesthetics.

Full-Mouth Reconstruction

As a comprehensive approach, full-mouth reconstruction targets multiple treatment concerns to reestablish good oral health and an attractive smile.

Ridge Augmentation

A bone grafting procedure, ridge augmentation rebuilds the bony arch to prepare for implant placement and restore a natural shape to the gums and jaw.

Socket Preservation

Socket preservation adds bone grafting material to a recent tooth extraction site to fortify the jaw and create support for a future dental implant.

Impacted Canines

Impacted canines (eye teeth) may require specialized care from an oral surgeon to help guide the teeth into proper eruption and improve oral function.

Crown Lengthening

Crown lengthening removes excess gum and bone tissue from around the teeth to eliminate a gummy smile or create space to place a dental restoration.

Facial Trauma

Facial trauma may involve minor or severe injuries to the mouth, face, and jaws and often requires expert care from an oral and maxillofacial surgeon.

Wisdom Tooth Extractions

Wisdom tooth extraction is commonly performed to remove third molars that are impacted, lack the space to erupt, or are causing oral health concerns.

Pre-Prosthetic Surgery

Pre-prosthetic surgery involves minor oral surgery procedures that reshape the jawbone to help make dentures fit more securely and comfortably.

Oral Pathology and Biopsies

Our oral surgery specialists perform tissue biopsies and offer expert care in the diagnosis and management of cancers of the mouth, head, and neck.

Advanced Technology

3D Oral Imaging

3D oral images increase accuracy during the diagnostic and treatment process and offer high-resolution, detailed images of the teeth, jaw, and face.

Digital X-rays

Digital x-rays provide an in-depth view of your teeth, jawbones, sinuses, and other facial and oral structures for diagnostic or treatment purposes.

Sedation Options

IV Sedation

Ideal for patients who have more severe dental fears and phobias, IV sedation allows for deeper relaxation and very little memory of the procedure.

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

Nitrous oxide gas is a mild sedation option that can calm nervous or anxious energy and allow you to get the treatment needed for better oral health.

Oral-Conscious Sedation

Patients who experience moderate dental anxiety, fear, or worry can often enjoy stress-free, positive visits with relaxing oral-conscious sedation.

General Anesthesia

General anesthesia may be provided during more complex oral and maxillofacial surgeries, such as corrective jaw surgery or facial trauma treatment.
