What Is Oral Surgery?
Oral Surgery is the simple way to describe what an oral surgeon is capable of doing. An oral surgeon is actually an Oral & Maxillofacial surgeon who is trained to help patients suffering from medical and dental needs. Oral surgeons are the only surgeons trained in anesthesia and were on the forefront of outpatient anesthesia care.

Common Oral Surgery Procedures
Tooth Removal
The loss of a tooth is sometimes necessary. A surgeon can remove a tooth while protecting the other teeth, bone, and gums in the area. The goal is to remove the tooth and once the area heals make the area look like nothing happened so you can replace the tooth.
Bone Grafting
The biggest downfall of losing a tooth is that if nothing is done the bone used to support the tooth shrinks away. This volume of bone is necessary to support many dental tooth replacement options including dental implants. We can prevent the loss of this bone and when necessary, reconstruct this missing bone to help patients replace teeth.
Dental Implant Surgery
Dental implants are a permanent replacement for missing teeth and are made up of three parts—the base, abutment, and restoration. Dental implant posts are surgically inserted into the bone to secure a new tooth or set of teeth. Modern dental implant surgery is precise, especially when CT guided technology is used. This is why the combination of surgical expertise & technology are so important in creating a custom solution for you.
