Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
Our specialists solve complex oral and dental problems. Oral and
maxillofacial surgery focuses on treating diseases, injuries, and
birth defects that affect the jaw, mouth, teeth and facial
structure. We provide wisdom teeth removal and dental
implants. We also treat oral cancer, sleep apnea, TMJ, and
other mouth and jaw problems.
All our surgeons are board certified by the American Board of
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. This is the highest ranking board
certification available, and we are the only oral surgery practice
in the Green Bay region with an entire team of board
certified surgeons.
To best serve our patients throughout Northeast Wisconsin, we
offer office locations in Green Bay, Shawano, Manitowoc and
Sturgeon Bay.
Dental Implants
Dental
implants are long-term replacement teeth. Your oral and
maxillofacial surgeon surgically implants them in your jaw bone.
Dental implants never slip or make embarrassing noises like
dentures. They also won't decay like teeth anchoring fixed
bridges.
Patients who choose dental implants enjoy greater comfort and
confidence than those with fixed bridges or removable
dentures. Ask for a referral to an oral surgeon and find out
if dental implants are right for you.
Wisdom Teeth
Wisdom teeth
are also known as third molars and typically erupt in the mouth
between the ages of 14 and 24. Don't wait for your wisdom teeth to
bother you. The sooner the wisdom teeth are removed, the
lower the chance of complications.
Oral Cancer
When caught early, oral cancer has a high
rate of recovery. Visit your dentist regularly and see an oral and
maxillofacial surgeon if you have sores or lumps in your throat or
mouth. Oral cancer rates are higher among smokers and tobacco
users, heavy drinkers, and people with poorly fitting
dentures. Ask for a referral to an oral surgeon today to talk
about reducing your oral cancer risks.
Jaw Problems
Jaw
problems can affect your chewing, eating and breathing.
Corrective surgery can correct these jaw problems and even improve
your appearance. Jaw surgery can also correct chronic jaw
pain (TMJ) and related headaches. Talk to one of our oral and
maxillofacial surgeons about whether jaw surgery could improve your
comfort and confidence.
