The Many Aspects of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral and Maxillofacial surgery involves many different types of procedures. Included in this specialty is the removal of erupted and impacted teeth, corrective surgery to facilitate dentures or implants, jaw surgery in conjunction with orthodontic care, cosmetic facial surgery, dental implant therapy, and treatment of infections of the face and mouth. We also diagnose and treat conditions associated with temporomandibular joint dysfunction, oral cysts and lesions, and traumatic injuries to the face and jaw.

Your First Visit

The first time you come to our office, we will review your general medical health, examine x-rays and perform a clinical examination. During this appointment, we will recommend treatments, and if surgical care is needed, anesthesia alternatives can be discussed. The doctor will make his recommendations based upon all information that you provide, so for your own health and welfare, be sure to fully inform us of all allergies or to the pertinent medical information.

Keeping Quality Affordable

In order to keep quality oral and maxillofacial care affordable, we ask that payment be made at the time of service unless other arrangements are made in advance. If there is medical or dental insurance coverage available, we will be happy to file claims for you. Please review your policy and be aware of any prior approvals that may be required by your insurance company. Keep in mind that both medical and dental insurance are designed as a means of reimbursement to the patient for a portion of expenses and do not replace your personal responsibility for charges incurred through our practice. Please feel free to discuss any questions or concerns with our business representatives prior to your treatment.
