Bone Grafting
The bone grafting procedure helps patients grow new bone when it is needed to aid in the rebuilding or reconstruction of supporting structures in the body, such as the tooth root, which is part of the dental implant surgery procedure.
Cleft Lip and Palate
Cleft lip and cleft palate are congential deformities, or birth defects, that cause the upper lip and/or upper palate to separate from themselves, creating an unsightly appearance, speech impediment and ear and breathing problems.
Orthognathic Surgery
Orthognathic surgery moves the upper and/or lower jaw bones in order to re-align the upper and lower teeth in patients. While improving the bite and alignment of your teeth, orthognathic surgery may also improve the aesthetics of your face.
Dental Implants
Missing or damaged teeth can be replaced with artificial tooth replacements called dental implants. Dental implants offer tooth restoration with permanent results and superior smile aesthetics.
Facial Trauma
When traumatic incidents result in serious facial injury, facial trauma surgery is performed to correct facial disfigurement and distortion. Broken bones, lacerations and more are addressed with facial trauma treatment.
Impacted Canines
When teeth fail to erupt to function from the gums, we say they are "impacted." To treat impacted canine teeth, we gently coax the teeth out of the gums over the course of a year's time to complete your smile and improve your bite.
Platelet Rich Plasma
PRP therapy is designed to speed the healing and recovery process after surgery, as well as allow patients who need to more quickly grow more bone for bone grafting or cleft lip and palate procedures.
Sleep Apnea
Sleep apnea is a disorder that causes breathing to stop during sleep. The condition affects millions of Americans, however many patients do not know they have the condition.
TMJ Disorder
TMJ disorder affects the jaw joints on each side of the mouth, especially when chewing, talking and smiling or laughing. TMJ or TMD can cause pain, headaches and uneven bite and should be corrected with surgery if alternative treatments don't work.
Wisdom Teeth
For young adults, wisdom teeth cause pain and orthodontic shifting when they begin erupt. To correct this, wisdom tooth removal may be performed to simply extract problematic wisdom teeth from your mouth.
