Our Surgical Services
We provide a full range of comprehensive oral and maxillofacial

as well as in the office setting. These services include: dentoalveolar
surgery (i.e. extractions, removal of wisdom teeth); dental implants;
orthognathic surgery; oral medicine; oral pathology; trauma and
facial fractures; and reconstructive maxillofacial surgery. Office
procedures may be facilitated by appropriate anesthesia (i.e. nitrous

About
Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
Oral and maxillofacial surgery requires up to 6 additional years
of hospital based surgical and anesthesia training, after graduation
from dental school. As oral and maxillofacial surgeons, our doctors
manage a wide variety of problems relating to the mouth, teeth,
and facial regions. We practice a full scope of oral and maxillofacial
surgery with expertise ranging from corrective jaw surgery to wisdom
teeth removal. Our doctors can diagnose and treat facial pain, facial
injuries, TMJ disorders, and perform a full range of dental implant
procedures.
