We take great pride in our conservative and preventive dentistry and do everything we can to help you keep your teeth. Why? Natural teeth are the best – better even than dental implants. But when oral surgery is necessary, it can offer tremendous relief and healing. Oral surgery is needed when:

• Lesions or growths inside the mouth require removal
• Wisdom or other teeth are impacted, meaning they have not grown into place properly and causing crowding, pain, and gum sensitivity
• Teeth are severely damaged, decayed, or shattered and cannot be saved with a root canal
• You are experiencing advanced TMJ disorder problems, or your jaw is misaligned
• Cleft palate surgery is necessary

While we may perform the occasional extraction or wisdom tooth removal, we prefer to rely on the two great oral surgeons Juneau is blessed with. Their oral surgery experience is unparalleled, and they can offer more advanced sedation options to keep you comfortable. Of course, we will follow your care, frequently communicating with the surgeon, so we know how to properly follow up and help you speed your way to healing.
