What We Can Do for You

As oral surgeons, we have in-depth education, training, knowledge, and experience in all aspects of the face and mouth, including the teeth, gums, jawbones, and surrounding areas. After trauma, we provide services to relieve pain, regain bite function, prevent additional infections or complications, and restore facial aesthetics.

Tooth Splints

This dental appliance is used to stabilize and support teeth damaged in an accident. Fractured or knocked-out teeth might require a splint to reposition them. This is a temporary device used in the healing process.

Jaw Wiring

Similar to a cast on a broken arm or leg, jaw wiring is used to hold the jawbones in place after trauma. Wiring ensures the bones and tissues have ample time to heal. Without this, healing would be difficult with constant jaw movement.

Additional Options

Depending on the severity of your trauma and injury, we might use additional methods to help you heal and recover. Metal plates support damaged facial structures, and implants can be inserted to replace missing teeth.
