Dental Implants

Dental implant placement

Dental implants are one of the best options for tooth replacement. Dental implants are individual dental prostheses which take the place of a single missing tooth. If you have lost a tooth or have multiple missing teeth, dental implants will offer the most natural-looking results to restore your smile. The dental implant is comprised of three parts — the implant,…

Wisdom Teeth Removal

Wisdom teeth removals

The wisdom teeth (also known as third molars) are an additional set of teeth that develop under the gum surface and are often undetectable without a thorough oral exam that includes a proper X-ray evaluation or 3D scan. It is common for teens and adults to be unaware that this set of teeth exists in their mouth until the wisdom…

General Extraction

General extractions

It is crucial to have healthy teeth to chew and speak clearly. However, it is a common occurrence for oral surgeons and dentists to see patients who struggle to care for their teeth properly or have damaged teeth due to conditions like periodontal disease, impacted teeth, and dental crowding. Sometimes the tooth can be restored to its original function through…

Full-Arch Dental Restoration

Full-arch dental restorations

The full-arch dental restoration is an innovative tooth replacement procedure that is available to patients who need a full arch of teeth restored. This streamlined procedure offers a quicker recovery time at a fraction of the cost of other replacement options. In this treatment, four specialized implants are surgically placed in the patient’s upper or lower jaw. Once the procedure…

Bone Grafting

Bone grafting

What is bone grafting? Bone grafting is an oral procedure that allows for bone growth where it is necessary and promotes new bone growth where the jaw bone is deteriorating due to damage, disease, or atrophy. If missing teeth are not replaced promptly, the bone structure in the jaw diminishes over time. This natural deterioration often leads to poor quality…

Alveolar Distraction

Alveolar distraction

What is alveolar distraction? For dental implants to be successful, they have to be placed into a sustainable foundation of soft tissue and bone. Sometimes, your oral surgeon may recommend a bone grafting procedure as a solution to build this foundation; however, many times, an alveolar distraction procedure can eliminate the need for a bone graft. Alveolar distraction can increase…

Nerve Repositioning

Nerve repositioning

What is nerve repositioning? The nerve that runs along the lower jaw is called the inferior alveolar nerve. It provides feeling to the chin and lower lip areas. When bone deterioration occurs, the separation of this nerve from the teeth and upper surface of the gums decreases. In some cases of severe bone resorption, this nerve may even lay on…

Exposure of Impacted Teeth

Exposure of impacted teeth

Teeth develop into the mouth by growing and erupting through the gums into their natural position. Sometimes, a tooth gets trapped and either does not completely erupt or only partially emerges into the mouth. When this occurs, the tooth is said to be impacted. The most common impacted teeth are the wisdom teeth, or third molars, in the far back…

Oral Pathology

Oral pathology

Oral Pathology refers to any diseases that affect the mouth, jaws, and any related structures (such as facial muscles, temporomandibular joints, perioral skin, and salivary glands) in the adjacent areas. Oral pathology can develop in the soft tissue (mucosa) or hard tissue (bone) of the mouth. When you come in for wisdom tooth removal, dental implant placement, or any other…

Orthognathic Surgery

Orthognathic surgery

Orthognathic surgery, or corrective jaw surgery, is a procedure performed for patients whose jaws do not meet correctly, which creates an improper bite and misalignment of the jaw. For some individuals, the problem can be corrected without jaw surgery and can be modified through the use of orthodontics. But if the problem is severe, the orthodontist will need to work…

Facial Trauma

Facial trauma injuries

Did you know there are millions of facial trauma cases admitted to hospitals each year in the United States alone? And just like a cardiologist is called upon to treat the heart specifically, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon is called upon to treat and manage any facial trauma cases. It is not uncommon for oral and maxillofacial surgeons to be regular,…

Platelet-Rich Plasma

Platelet-rich plasma

What is Platelet-Rich Plasma or PRP, and what can it do for me? At Permian Basin Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Center, we are proud to be one of the few offices in the area that utilizes platelet-rich plasma, sometimes called PRP. Platelet-rich plasma is a specialized substance that is a by-product of blood. It allows us to supply a…
