Missing and severely damaged teeth can compromise your smile and limit your food choices. Left unreplaced, missing teeth lead to bone loss and increase your risks for other health problems. Dental implants are a versatile, permanent solution to tooth loss. We can replace individual teeth, several teeth in a row, or even reconstruct your entire smile using full mouth dental implants.
Misaligned jaws strain your jaw joints, teeth, and supporting bone. Left uncorrected, this can lead to pain, bone loss, and significant loss of function. Orthognathic surgery addresses many jaw issues. We also offer surgical treatments for TMJ and bone grafting to rebuild your jawbone for dental implants.
Wisdom teeth extractions are most people’s first surgical experience. Impacted wisdom teeth can seriously damage the bone of your jaw and the neighboring teeth. While this is a routine, relatively low-risk procedure, you need a skilled oral surgeon near you to ensure everything goes as smoothly as possible.
Usually, your first appointment at Heartland Oral Surgery and Dental Implants will be a consultation. We want to hear about your oral health concerns, how they’re affecting you, and what goals you have for how oral surgery could help improve your quality of life.
We’ll collect appropriate imaging using our state-of-the-art diagnostic technology. Using this precision 3D digital replica of your head and neck anatomy, we can accurately plan every step of your treatment to ensure a minimally invasive procedure and fast healing.
We’re with you every step of the way, from planning to your recovery, as your partners in protecting your oral health with compassionate surgical care.
