About our practice

Dental Implants in Pinole

Dental implants provide a permanent, natural-looking replacement for missing teeth. Unlike traditional bridges or removable dentures, implants are anchored into the jawbone and function like your own teeth. At Pinole Oral Surgery, our surgeons use 3D imaging to plan every implant case with precision.

We offer single-tooth implants, multiple-tooth implants, implant-supported dentures, and full arch restoration using the All-on-4 technique. For patients who have experienced bone loss, bone grafting can rebuild the foundation needed for successful implant placement. Considering full mouth dental implants? Schedule a consultation at our Pinole office to discuss your options.

Wisdom Teeth Removal in Pinole

Impacted wisdom teeth can lead to pain, infection, cysts, and damage to adjacent teeth. Our oral surgeons evaluate your wisdom teeth using digital imaging and 3D scans to determine the safest, most effective approach. We perform wisdom teeth removal for patients of all ages, from teenagers through adults, and address emerging wisdom teeth before they cause complications.

IV sedation is available so you can sleep comfortably through the entire procedure. We provide recovery instructions before you leave and schedule follow-up appointments to ensure proper healing. We also treat pericoronitis, the infection that develops around partially erupted wisdom teeth.

Tooth Extractions

Our oral surgeons perform simple and surgical tooth extractions, including removal of broken, decayed, or impacted teeth. For patients who need multiple teeth removed before dentures or implants, we offer full mouth extractions with sedation. We discuss tooth replacement options, including dental implants, during your visit so you can plan your next steps.

Bone Grafting for Dental Implants

Bone grafting rebuilds the jawbone in areas where bone has been lost due to extraction, gum disease, or prolonged denture wear. This step is often necessary before dental implant placement. Our surgeons perform socket preservation, ridge augmentation, and sinus lift procedures using advanced grafting techniques and 3D imaging for precise results.

Corrective Jaw Surgery

Orthognathic surgery corrects misalignment of the upper and lower jaws that affects bite function, facial symmetry, and breathing. Our surgeons work alongside your orthodontist to plan and execute corrective procedures that restore proper jaw alignment and improve quality of life.

Additional Surgical Services

Our Pinole office also provides facial trauma repair and jaw fracture treatment, oral pathology biopsies, impacted canine exposure, tori removal, alveoloplasty, and teeth exposure for orthodontic treatment. Our team covers the full scope of oral and maxillofacial surgery.

IV Sedation and Anesthesia Options

We offer a complete range of anesthesia options including local anesthesia, nitrous oxide, IV sedation, and general anesthesia. IV sedation is the most popular choice for wisdom teeth removal, implant placement, and multi-tooth extractions. Our team monitors you throughout the procedure to ensure your safety.
