Yes. We offer dental implant surgery as a long-term solution for missing teeth. Dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone and support replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
What is bone grafting?
Bone grafting procedures are designed to rebuild and preserve bone structure when bone loss has occurred. Dr. Collins utilizes advanced techniques intended to rebuild bone with minimal surgical intervention and optimal patient comfort.
Do you remove wisdom teeth?
Yes. Wisdom teeth removal is one of our most commonly performed procedures. Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to develop and often require removal when they become impacted, overcrowded, or cause other oral health concerns.

Corrective jaw surgery, also called orthognathic surgery, is performed when the upper and lower jaws do not meet properly. The procedure repositions the jaw to improve both function and facial appearance.
