When you sustain facial trauma, this could lead to major problems with not only your overall appearance, but with the health and function of your smile. Fortunately, our team of oral surgeons have the skills and experience to offer dramatic results. In today’s blog, your Santa Rosa , CA, oral surgeons talk about our approach to treating facial trauma.
Our Expertise
We’re uniquely qualified to address facial trauma and other serious oral health concerns. Our surgical team has undergone specialized training to address complex facial lacerations and injuries. In fact, Dr. Tyko and Dr. Rogers are both on the Trauma Team at the Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital! Which means you’re receiving high quality care from a team of experts, who all want you to not only receive facial repair, but highly esthetic results as well.
When to Seek Treatment
We can help rebuild the facial structure following a severe injury, which includes fractures and breakage in the jaw and facial bones, as well as knocked out teeth and complex lacerations. If you suffer an injury like this, then you should consider giving our team a call. We will work with you to help transform your smile and overall facial esthetics.
Sedation Dentistry
We want to make sure your experience is a comfortable one. We will plan the procedure in detail using the digital images gathered with CT technology. Then, prior to the procedure we can administer a local anesthetic and also dental sedation, so you enter a calm and relaxed state with little to no memory of the procedure at all. We can offer nitrous oxide, oral sedation, and IV sedation, choosing the best option based on your injury, anxiety levels, medical history, and more.
Rebuilding Smiles
We begin with your teeth, as they provide a framework to help rebuild the rest of your smile. If you have lost jawbone structure to support dental implants, we can use grafting or sinus lifts to fortify them and provide a support structure for your dental implants. Once your new teeth are in place, we can begin rebuilding and restructuring your smile to correct the severe injuries you’ve suffered. Once we reposition the facial bones, we can offer an esthetically pleasing result, so you don’t have to be worried about major changes to your appearance.
If you have any questions about these injuries, or about how our team can help, then contact our team today to schedule a consultation. If you have dental insurance benefits, care now could allow you to use your remaining 2022 benefits before they expire at the end of the year.
