    In their words

    At my office I treat one patient at a time, allowing me plenty of time to give my patients exceptional quality care. My goal is to be a blessing to my patients and my community. I am committed to removing only the minimal amount of tooth structure required to restore the tooth. I do this by using modern dental bonding techniques to bond the dental restoration to the remaining tooth.

What is wisdom teeth removal?

Wisdom teeth are the third molars, which usually come in between ages 17 and 25. They are often removed when they are impacted, partly erupted, decayed, or crowding other teeth. Not every wisdom tooth needs to come out; x-rays help decide.

Wisdom teeth removal: specialist or general dentist?

General dentists remove many erupted wisdom teeth. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons typically remove impacted wisdom teeth, especially those near the jaw nerve, and offer IV sedation or general anesthesia.
