What treatments are provided by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon?
Surgical dentistry requires a provider to have extensive training and experience to ensure safety and effectiveness. Dr. German Trujillo proudly serves those in the area with painless dental surgery, including:
- Wisdom tooth removal. The third molars, often referred to by most as the wisdom teeth, usually erupt within one’s late teen years or early adulthood. Because of their awkward positioning, they can cause discomfort and lead to other dental problems. Dr. German Trujillo can safely remove these teeth to alleviate your pain and prevent future issues with either simple or surgical extraction.
- Dental implants. This popular solution for missing teeth provides a long-lasting and natural-looking outcome. Dr. German Trujillo has the necessary skills and expertise to perform this procedure with precision and care, giving you a restored smile and improved oral health.
- Jaw surgery. If you are experiencing issues with your jaw, such as pain or difficulty with chewing, speaking, or breathing, Dr. German Trujillo can provide corrective surgery to improve its function and alleviate any discomfort. He offers reconstructive and orthognathic jaw surgery for those who need it.
- Facial trauma treatment. Injuries to the face can be complex and require specialized treatment from an oral and maxillofacial surgeon. Dr. German Trujillo is trained to handle facial traumas ranging from simple lacerations to complex fractures. He uses advanced techniques and technology to repair any damage and restore the function and appearance of the affected area.
- Bone grafting. As part of reconstructive surgery, our team at Pearlmax Oral Surgery also offers bone grafting. Bone grafting involves taking bone from one area of the body and transplanting it to another in order to help regenerate lost or damaged bone. This procedure is often necessary for dental implants or other types of oral surgery.
