Advancing Oral Health Through Minimally Invasive Surgery

We understand the importance of oral surgery in maintaining optimal oral health and function. That’s why we are dedicated to providing a range of common surgical procedures, including wisdom tooth (third molar) extraction, cavitational surgery, root canal removal, and the placement of implants, all while adhering to a whole body and minimally invasive approach.

Our Treatments
PRF Treatments

One advanced technology that we offer is platelet-rich fibrin (PRF). These treatments work in harmony with your body’s natural healing process, concentrating on your own growth factors to speed up recovery. When PRF is applied to a surgical site, it stimulates bone and soft tissue growth, lessening post-surgical pain and discomfort.

Laser Treatments

Utilizing the latest in dental technology, we offer precise and minimally invasive laser treatments for a variety of procedures. This allows more precise treatments, with minimal trauma to surrounding tissues and promoting faster healing times. From gum contouring and frenectomies to biopsies and lesion removal, our laser treatments give you a more comfortable, efficient experience than traditional, more invasive dental techniques.

Zirconia (Metal-Free) Implants

For patients seeking a biocompatible and aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional dental implants, we offer zirconia implants. While first generation implants were made exclusively from metal – usually titanium – we prefer the newer generation zirconium implants from Z-System. These ceramic implants are broadly biocompatible and just as strong and durable as metal. They’re certainly more attractive, blending well at the gum line, with no gray showing through.

Anesthesiology

We understand that dental procedures can cause anxiety. To ensure your comfort, we offer the option to have a board-certified anesthesiologist present during your surgery or restorative treatment. This allows for deeper levels of sedation or general anesthesia, providing a relaxed and pain-free experience.

How long is the recovery period after oral surgery?

The recovery time can vary depending on the specific procedure you undergo. Minor surgeries, such as tooth extractions, may only require a few days of rest, while more extensive procedures like implant placement or jaw surgery could take several weeks for a full recovery. To accelerate healing and minimize discomfort, we utilize cutting-edge therapies like Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). These all-natural treatments, derived from your own blood, provide concentrated growth factors that stimulate bone and soft tissue regeneration, significantly reducing recovery times.

Is oral surgery painful?

At our practice, we prioritize your comfort throughout every step of the process. We utilize advanced anesthesia techniques and pain management strategies to minimize discomfort during and after your surgery. Additionally, our use of minimally invasive techniques and PRF/PRP treatments can significantly reduce post-operative pain and swelling, contributing to a more pleasant recovery experience.

Are there any special precautions I need to take before oral surgery?

Your safety is our top priority. Prior to your surgery, our team will provide you with detailed pre-operative instructions, which may include guidelines on medications, dietary restrictions, and other precautions specific to your procedure. Following these instructions carefully can help ensure a successful outcome and minimize the risk of complications.

Are metal-free implants as durable and long-lasting as traditional implants?

Absolutely. The zirconia implants we use are crafted from an exceptionally strong and durable material that is designed to last for many years with proper care and maintenance. In fact, zirconia implants often outperform traditional metal implants in terms of biocompatibility and aesthetic appeal, making them an excellent choice for those seeking a holistic and natural-looking solution.

Finding Dr. Taylor and her team was was such a godsend! I was referred by a homeopathic doctor in my town who said it would be worth my while to make the 1 1/2 hr drive…oh boy was she right! That was over seven years ago and I’m still making the drive because I have found no other office that compares. The care they offer is comprehensive and cutting edge. They helped me make informed choices that not only saved my teeth, but have improved my overall health. I HIGHLY recommend them!
