These days, you can find dental implant placement in some unexpected places. Neighborhood dentists are starting to perform this procedure, and sometimes, they are great at it. But unfortunately, these dental health professionals just don’t see that many kinds of patients during training, before they start to work in private practice. That means that they just don’t have as much experience as a talented oral surgeon can provide.
At Santa Rosa Oral Surgery, our office knows the advantages of a qualified oral surgeon. Dr. Tyko has taken some real steps to ensure that he understands a patient’s entire health when making decisions about their smile, including a full residency program with the University of Texas Houston. By working with an oral and maxillofacial surgeon, you’ve got someone who is held to a higher set of standards than your average dentist. So, when you think about making a change with dental implants, speak to our office about your plans.

Why Not Speak With An Oral Surgeon?
Sometimes, people stop short of calling an oral surgery clinic when they are thinking about dental implants. This can be due to perceived costs or a desire to keep things simple. But just because you opt to work with a dentist for your procedure, it does not change the oral health risks associated with surgery.
An oral surgeon is trained at treating a range of oral and maxillofacial concerns, not just teeth. They understand the complex nature of the human health system, and they spend time in an actual hospital setting. For people with health conditions like diabetes or heart disease, that can make a real difference in experience and outcome.
The Anesthesia Advantage Of Working With An MD
There are other times when working with an oral surgeon can be a real help. Anesthesia is one of those instances, as it brings some inherent risks. When suppressing the human nervous system, we need to be incredibly careful in how we do it.
Dr. Tyko understands anesthesia and IV sedation, and our office takes steps to make sure that we stay trained. He actually spends time auditing other practices in the area, too, to make sure that they are working well. So, when you need to know you’ve got a trusted oral surgeon, we’re here.
