You Can Trust Our Team With Many Types of Oral Surgery

When you visit our cozy and friendly office for your initial consultation, we’ll examine your mouth, take X-rays and 3-D images, and cover the details of your procedure. We perform several types of oral surgery, including:

  • Tooth Extraction – We always try to save your damaged tooth if possible, but if removal is necessary, you can count on our skilled team for the most comfortable, efficient care.
  • Wisdom Teeth Removal – Although these third molars can come through with no problem, for many people they pose a risk to other teeth and gums. We can remove them right here in our office to protect your oral health.
  • Gum Grafts – Using gum tissue taken from another part of your mouth, we can repair gums that have receded, helping you avoid tooth loss and giving you back an attractive smile.
  • Bone Grafts – This procedure prepares a weak or thin jawbone to support dental implants. Your dentist can use either your own bone or synthetic bone material, adding it to the jaw to stimulate new bone cell growth.
  • Sinus Lifts – This kind of bone graft adds bone material to your upper jaw just below the sinus cavity. It helps make room for your jaw to support dental implants.
  • Ridge Augmentation – Our dentists can place new bone and tissue material to build up your jaw ridge. This may be done to prepare for dental implants or to give your smile a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.
