Scotch Plains Oral Surgeon

Whether you’re facing a complex oral health issue or simply seeking to improve your smile, an oral surgeon possesses the expertise, precision, and skills to deliver transformative results. From routine procedures to complex reconstructive surgery, oral surgeons tackle many health and aesthetic concerns your regular dentist may not treat. While general dentists handle most routine dental care, oral surgeons are uniquely qualified to perform complex surgical interventions. Regardless of the reasons for your surgery, choosing an oral surgeon who prioritizes your health, comfort, and safety is essential. 

At Elizabeth Oral Surgery Group, we are dedicated to providing our patients in Scotch Plains with state-of-the-art care in a safe and relaxing setting. We understand how important your smile is to your health and confidence and will do everything in our power to ensure you leave our office completely satisfied. When you partner with one of our talented oral surgeons, they will personalize their treatment and care plans to meet your unique needs. 

What is an Oral Surgeon?

Oral surgeons are highly-qualified medical doctors who perform surgery on the mouth, jaw, and other parts of the face. After completing medical school, oral surgeons must undergo an additional four years of dental school and a six-year surgical residency. This extensive education and training prepares oral surgeons to perform complex procedures with precision and care. If your regular dentist is unable to address your oral and maxillofacial concerns, they may refer you to an oral surgeon.

At Elizabeth Oral Surgery Group, our skilled medical professionals utilize various cutting-edge techniques to offer procedures to meet our patient’s needs, including the following:

• Dental ridge modification
• Endodontic surgery
• Facial aesthetic surgery
• Dental implants
• Gum grafts
• TMJ/TMD and other jaw procedures
• Cleft lip and palate repair
• Wisdom teeth removal
• Teeth extractions

Our surgeons are committed to providing pain-free procedures and treatment options so you can get the smile you deserve with little to no discomfort. Many of our treatments are performed as minimally-invasive outpatient procedures, allowing you to return home the same day as your surgery.

What Conditions Can Be Treated Through Oral Surgery?

Your dentist may recommend you visit an oral surgeon for many reasons, from tooth decay to oral cancer. The talented surgeons at Elizabeth Oral Surgery Group have a wealth of experience treating a wide range of conditions and are ready to help you along your treatment journey.
