Most dental offices refer you out the moment anything surgical comes up. We do things differently. Our oral surgeon visits our office regularly, which means you get the care you need without the hassle of tracking down a separate specialist, waiting for a new patient opening, or explaining your history to someone who has never met you.
From simple extractions to bone grafting and implant surgery, it all happens here, coordinated by a team that already knows you.
When a tooth is too damaged to save, removing it cleanly is the right call. Our oral surgeon handles both simple extractions and more complex cases, including broken teeth and difficult root positions, so the process goes smoothly and healing starts right away.
Wisdom teeth cause problems for most people. They come in sideways, get stuck under the gumline, crowd other teeth, or lead to infections. If yours have been flagged, the earlier you address them the easier the process tends to be. We evaluate, explain your options, and take care of it right here.
When a tooth is removed or lost, the jawbone in that area gradually shrinks. A bone graft rebuilds that volume and gives your jaw the solid foundation it needs, especially if you are planning on a dental implant down the road. It sounds more involved than it is, and most patients recover without much trouble.
Implants are the most dependable long-term way to replace a missing tooth, but placing them requires surgical precision. Our oral surgeon handles the implant placement and works directly with your dentist on the rest of the process, so nothing falls through the cracks between appointments.
Feeling nervous about surgery is completely normal. We offer options to make the experience genuinely comfortable, from nitrous oxide for mild anxiety to IV sedation for more involved procedures. Your surgeon will go over what makes sense for you before anything is scheduled.
No. You can book directly with us. Our oral surgeon works as part of our in-office team, so there is no referral process or separate practice to deal with.
No. We make sure the area is completely numb before anything starts. Depending on the procedure and your comfort level, we can also offer sedation so you feel relaxed throughout. Most patients are surprised by how manageable it actually is.
Recovery takes only a few days to a week. Swelling and soreness are common for the first 48 hours, but they improve quickly with proper aftercare. We give you clear instructions before you leave and our team is available if you have questions during recovery.
Not always. It depends on how much bone is present in the area. Our surgeon will evaluate your jaw during the consultation and let you know whether a graft is needed before placing the implant. If it is, we handle that here too, no additional referrals.
Cost varies based on the procedure. Many extractions and medically necessary surgeries are covered at least partially by dental insurance. We review your benefits before treatment and walk you through your out-of-pocket costs so there are no surprises. Financing is also an option should you need it.
We always take care of your smile
