Thanks to Dr. Chris Johnson’s extensive expertise in wisdom teeth removal, you can rely on his care for the best experience possible.
Orthognathic Surgery
You may need orthognathic (corrective jaw) surgery if your jaws don’t meet correctly, or are misaligned, such as if your teeth don’t seem to fit within the jaws. While orthodontics can straighten crooked teeth, corrective jaw surgery is used to straighten crooked jaws and is performed by an oral-maxillofacial surgeon.
Cosmetic Facial Surgery
Do you have a cosmetic facial problem or malformation caused by injury, disease, or simply as a result of aging? Many of our patients at Johnson Oral Facial Surgerycomment that they are blown away by the significant improvements in the aesthetics of their face from oral-maxillofacial surgery procedures intended first and foremost to improve their functionality and pain problems.
Bone Grafting
Dental bone grafting is a procedure that restores or strengthens the jawbone by adding bone material to areas with bone loss. It is commonly performed to prepare for dental implants, support existing teeth, or address deterioration caused by gum disease or tooth loss. The graft material may come from the patient (autograft), a donor (allograft), an animal source (xenograft), or synthetic materials.
Dental Implants
Have you lost one or more teeth? Has the situation made you more self-conscious about your smile? Maybe you even have functionality problems while eating, drinking, or speaking? Whether your adult tooth loss happened from trauma, disease, or dental neglect, you have tooth replacement options available that look, feel, and function just like natural teeth do. For most patients, dental implants represent the best possible tooth-replacement option because of the functionality, permanence, and high cosmetic quality of this solution.
Impacted Canines
The upper canines are the second most common teeth to become impacted behind the wisdom teeth. They are crucial for the alignment of your bite, and if they become impacted, they can cause crowding, bite problems, and aesthetic concerns.
Approximately 2-3% of the population experiences impacted maxillary canines. Canines often fail to erupt properly due to a lack of space, or sometimes because they are blocked by other teeth or abnormal jaw growth.
All-On-4
All-on-4 is a catch all phrase for full mouth dental implant reconstruction. This technique was originally published by Dr. Paulo Malo in 1998. He found that by strategically placing a minimum of 4 implants in the jaw, an entire arch of teeth could be successfully supported. This technique grew in popularity and so did the number of names that describe this procedure. The official name for this procedure is a full arch implant retained hybrid prosthesis. Other names include All-on-6, All-on-X, ONXX, Same Day Smile, Smile in a Box, Straumann Chrome Solutions, NSequence, TeethXpress, Clearchoice, Smileloc and many more.
Anesthesia
TMJ Disorders
Addressing TMJ disorders is crucial for maintaining both oral and overall health. When left untreated, TMJ issues can cause persistent pain, discomfort, and difficulty with basic functions like eating, speaking, or yawning. Chronic jaw pain may also lead to headaches, neck pain, and even ear discomfort, significantly affecting a person’s quality of life. At Johnson Oral Facial Surgery, addressing TMJ disorders early can help prevent these complications, restore normal jaw function, and improve the patient’s overall well-being.
Facial Pathology
Are you concerned about recent unexplainable changes to your mouth, face, or neck? Has your dentist been concerned about a spot or area in your mouth? If so let Dr. Johnson and our specialized staff care for you and get you answers. Oral Facial pathology is a branch of dentistry and medicine that identifies and manages diseases and abnormalities affecting the oral and maxillofacial (mouth and jaw) areas.
