Oral Surgery - Miami, Fl

Wisdom tooth extractions are necessary when these back molars become impacted or cause crowding, pain, or infection. Impacted wisdom teeth can lead to serious dental issues, such as misalignment of other teeth or painful swelling in the jaws.

Dr. Hines is skilled in removing wisdom teeth with minimal discomfort, using the latest techniques for a smoother recovery. For those concerned about the expense, we aim to provide affordable wisdom tooth extractions, helping you get the care you need without breaking the bank.

Our goal is always to save as many of your natural teeth as possible. Sometimes, a tooth is too damaged or decayed to save, and a tooth extraction is the best option. This procedure can prevent further infections and relieve pain.

Fortunately, technology, technique, and anesthesia have significantly improved over the years, enabling us to provide you with a safe, comfortable, and quick extraction right here in our office. We offer tooth extractions gently and precisely, ensuring that you stay comfortable throughout the process.

Bone grafting is often needed if you’ve experienced bone loss in your jaw, which can happen after tooth loss or due to gum disease. This procedure helps rebuild the bone to provide a stable foundation for dental implants or other restorative treatments.

Bone grafting can help maintain the natural shape of your face by preserving bone structure. We also offer zygomatic dental implants for people who don’t want or wouldn’t benefit from bone grafting.

A sinus lift is a specialized type of bone grafting that adds bone to your upper jaw to make room for dental implants. It’s beneficial when the sinuses are too close to the jawbone, making it hard to place implants securely.

Lifting the sinus membrane and adding bone ensures that your implants have the support they need. A sinus lift can make dental implants possible for patients who were previously not candidates due to low bone volume.

Ridge augmentation is another specialized bone graft procedure that helps recreate the jawbone’s natural contour after tooth loss or trauma. It is often performed to prepare the jaw for dental implants.

It can also improve the appearance of your gums, making them look more even and natural. Ridge augmentation is an important part of many complete mouth restoration plans, ensuring a stable and aesthetically pleasing outcome.

Dental implant surgery is the best solution for permanently replacing missing teeth with the same strength, function, and feel as healthy natural teeth. Implants are anchored directly into the jawbone, creating a strong base for crowns, bridges, or even complete sets of teeth.

Dr. Hines uses the most advanced techniques and materials to precisely place dental implants, promoting faster healing and better outcomes. If you’re ready to regain the look and function of your natural teeth, dental implants could be the answer you’re looking for.

Cuspid teeth, also called canines, are powerful biting teeth with the longest roots of human teeth. They are designed to be the first teeth that touch when your jaws close together, so they guide the rest of the teeth into the proper bite.

Impacted canines occur when these important teeth do not emerge properly from the gumline. Oral surgery can help guide these teeth into their proper position to help prevent more complex orthodontic problems.
