Pomona, CA (November 18, 2014) – Nearly a quarter of adults between the ages of 20-64 have untreated tooth decay or cavities. Considering the serious impact that oral health has on overall well-being, it is critical for people to understand the importance of maintaining good oral hygiene. Christopher S. Daniel, DDS, MD, FACS, consistently conveys this message to all of his patients at Santa Rosa & Rohnert Park Oral Surgery, and will further support the ability for patients to get the help they need at this year’s CDA Cares Clinic in Pomona, CA.

Dr. Daniel will volunteer in the medical triage area at the second CDA Cares Clinic to be held in Southern California, which will take place November 21-22 at the Pomona Fairplex. He will provide patients with a thorough examination to help determine whether their state of health is optimal enough to undergo oral surgery procedures.

“It is necessary for people to undergo a thorough history and physical with medical treatment, and optimization where needed,” said Dr. Daniel.

Each year, the CDA Foundation hosts CDA Cares Clinics in various locations across the country to provide care to approximately 2,000 patients at no cost. Even further, CDA Cares Clinics support continued health and wellness by educating the public, media and policymakers about the significance of good oral health, and the necessity to determine long-term solutions for patients.

Dr. Daniel will not only provide care to those who are healthy enough to undergo surgery, but he will also assist in preventing those who are not fit to undergo surgery from getting treatment until they get their medical conditions under control. Conditions that may be harmful to routine dental and oral surgery patients include uncontrolled high blood pressure, uncontrolled diabetes and others.

“I often see patients who need oral surgery, but they are simply ineligible to undergo any procedure safely before they get control of their other existing medical conditions. The risk for complications during and after dental procedures and/or surgery are just too high,” said Dr. Daniel. “This goes to show just how important it is to take care of every aspect of your health – especially your mouth.”

The CDA Foundation held their first Clinic in 2012, and have since provided $7.5 million in care to more than 10,000 patients. The CDA Cares Clinic in Pomona this week will provide patients with teeth cleanings, fillings, extractions, education, and resources for continued care.

Press Release

Santa Rosa & Rohnert Park Oral Surgery provides a state-of-the-art way for patients to receive post-op instructions, details on procedures and more at www.santarosaoralsurgery.com or www.rohnertparkoralsurgery.com

Santa Rosa, Calif. (April 29, 2014) – In today’s digital world, videos are becoming increasingly popular for communicating information, especially when it comes to health care. Since videos are likely to increase an individual’s understanding of a service by up to 74 percent, according to Digital Sherpa, utilizing this medium can be highly effective for oral surgery practices to deliver critical information to patients. The board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons of Santa Rosa & Rohnert Park Oral Surgery understand this new mode of learning and are announcing today that they launched a comprehensive website that showcases videos on pre- and post-operative instructions, information about wisdom teeth extractions and dental implants, tutorials from real-life patients, and more.

The goal of the practice’s new website at https://www.santarosaoralsurgery.com is to provide current and prospective patients with detailed information on procedures directly from the health care professionals performing the surgeries. Additional content, videos, graphics, and articles offer visitors testimonials from past patients, extensive information on maintaining proper oral health and upcoming events hosted by the team.

“We’re thrilled to provide our community with this new resource, giving them all the information they need in order to feel good about the procedure they’re coming in for,” said Leonard Tyko, DDS, MD, FACS. “More common than not, people experience anxiety before undergoing major surgeries, so this is one of our ways to help put patients at ease, ensure they have pre- and post-op instructions, and help them better understand what to expect.”

Three oral surgeons treat patients throughout Sonoma County between two offices, including one in Santa Rosa and another in Rohnert Park, Calif. Their mission is to earn and nurture a relationship with their patients, dentists and physicians that is built on genuine care, respect and non-judgmental consideration of their needs and concerns. As a progressive oral and maxillofacial surgery practice that pays special attention to excellence, compassion and proficiency, Santa Rosa & Rohnert Park Oral Surgery strives to deliver high-quality, comprehensive care to their local and extended communities.

“Patients seeking information about general tooth extraction, wisdom teeth removal, dental implants, exposure and bracketing of impacted teeth, sinus lift, bone grafting, and various other procedures can find informative short-format videos that explain everything in detail,” said Christopher S. Daniel, DDS, MD, who primarily practices in the Rohnert Park location.

What is especially important for patients to understand is the primary reason they are referred to an oral surgeon for certain dental procedures. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons undergo a significant amount of specialized training as part of their residency so they are qualified to administer a range of anesthesia options, ensuring patients are pain-free and safe during their procedure. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons are also the only recognized dental specialists that are surgically trained in an American Dental Association-accredited hospital-based residency program for a minimum of four years. They train alongside medical residents in internal medicine, general surgery, anesthesiology, plastic surgery, emergency medicine, and a number of other specialty areas.
