Our Services

How We Can Help You

Our team of oral and maxillofacial surgeons offers a host of surgical procedures to our patients. No matter your needs, we carefully create a personalized treatment plan and make sure you have all of the information you need before, during, and after your surgery.

Here is an overview of some of our procedures.

Anesthesia

As oral and maxillofacial surgeons, we are qualified and experienced in providing anesthesia options to enhance your comfort during your surgical procedure.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are a natural-looking tooth replacement option. We provide single implants, multiple implants, and implant-supported dentures for patients who are missing all of the teeth in their upper and/or lower jaw. We also offer bone grafting for qualifying patients who otherwise would not have enough bone density in their jaw to support an implant.

Wisdom Teeth Extractions

While some wisdom teeth emerge without complications, many people will experience issues with their oral health if their wisdom teeth are not removed. We extract wisdom teeth, including those that are impacted, to ensure a healthy jaw and teeth.

Same Day Teeth

if you are looking for a way to replace your upper or lower row of teeth, there is an option that is permanent and typically provides a full set of teeth in one day.

Tooth Extractions

There are many reasons why a patient might benefit from having a tooth removed. We remove decayed, damaged, or poorly positioned teeth and provide options for tooth replacement.

Was so helpful and nice. Very professional and made the experience great for someone who is terrified of the dentist.
