Upper West Side Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery offers the following services:
Dental Extractions – We offer dental extractions, including wisdom tooth extraction, using both surgical and non-surgical techniques. Dr. Park can use platelet rich growth factors at the site of the extraction to improve soft tissue healing and promote bone regeneration.
Dental Implants – Dental implants are regarded as the best option for replacing missing teeth, as they are the only one that restores the root, which prevents and even reverses bone loss in the jaw.
Bone Grafting – Bone grafting is often used to rebuild the jawbone prior to dental implant surgery to ensure a stable base of support.
Impacted Tooth Exposure – An impacted tooth is either fully or partially trapped beneath the gumline. Dr. Park can expose these teeth, allowing for orthodontic treatment or other dental procedures.
Orthognathic Surgery – Orthognathic surgery is performed to correct the positioning of the jaws. A treatment plan involves close collaboration between Dr. Park and your orthodontist to ensure that once your jaws are repositioned, your teeth are in alignment.
Sinus Lift Procedure – Sinus lifts are performed on the upper jaw to restore bone that has been lost, usually before dental implant surgery.
Pre-Prosthetic Surgery – If you need prosthetic teeth such as dentures, pre-prosthetic surgery prepares your jaw so your prosthetic fits comfortably and securely.
Oral Pathology & Biopsy – When needed, we can take samples to diagnose abnormal tissues that you or your dentist have identified during an oral cancer screening.
Facial Trauma Treatment – Facial trauma can involve injuries to the bone, teeth, skin, gums, and other soft tissues, which makes it all the more important to have a skilled oral surgeon like Dr. Park coordinate your care.
TMJ Disorders – TMJ disorders have a number of different causes, which means customized treatment plans are necessary. Dr. Park works with you to understand your pain so he can find the best way to relieve it.
Cleft Lip/Palate – A series of oral surgery procedures is needed for both cleft lips and cleft palates. Dr. Park can collaborate with you and your child’s other healthcare providers to create a comprehensive treatment plan.
Snoring and Sleep Apnea – An oral surgeon can help you find relief if you snore or suffer from sleep apnea. Our UWS practice offers oral appliance therapy and surgical treatments so you can get a better night’s sleep.
Facial Cosmetic Surgery – Oral surgeons have a keen understanding of facial anatomy, which makes them an excellent choice for BOTOX, submental liposuction, chin surgery, and facial fillers.
Sedation Dentistry – Our team is trained and certified to safely provide our patients with in-office sedation dentistry and anesthesia, ensuring that every procedure is comfortable and stress-free.
