Our oral surgery services
Dental implants
Dental implants are a surgical solution for replacing missing teeth. They involve inserting a titanium post into the jawbone, which acts as an artificial tooth root, providing a strong foundation for a dental restoration.
All-on-4
All-on-4 implants are a revolutionary dental treatment that can replace a full arch of missing teeth with just four dental implants. All-on-4 implants also require less time and cost than traditional dental implant options.
Overdentures
Overdentures are a type of removable dental prosthesis that fit over remaining natural teeth, dental implants, or a combination of both. Overdentures are a great option for patients who want a comfortable, secure and natural-looking solution to missing teeth.
Tooth extractions
Tooth extractions are oral surgery procedures performed to remove a tooth that is damaged, decayed, or causing problems. They are sometimes necessary to prevent further complications and maintain oral health.
Wisdom tooth removal
Wisdom tooth removal is a common oral surgery procedure that involves extracting one or more third molars (wisdom teeth). This is often done to prevent overcrowding, impaction, or other dental issues.
Sinus lifts
Sinus lifts are oral surgery procedures that raise the sinus floor to create more bone height in the upper jaw. This is often needed when there is not enough bone for dental implants in the upper posterior jaw region.
Bone grafts
Bone grafts are surgical procedures that help to rebuild or augment the jawbone. They are typically performed when there is insufficient bone for dental implants, helping to create a stable foundation for tooth replacement.
