Not enough jawbone for a dental implant? You may still have options!

Did you know that after losing a tooth, the jawbone in that area can gradually shrink due to a lack of stimulation? When there isn’t enough bone to support a dental implant, bone grafting may help rebuild the foundation needed for treatment. However, not everyone needs a bone graft before getting a dental implant. The decision depends on your bone volume, the location of the missing tooth, your oral health and clinical assessment.

Sometimes, the first step to replacing a tooth is rebuilding the bone beneath it.

A swelling near your ear or beneath your jaw isn’t always a dental problem. It could be related to your salivary glands.

Salivary glands produce saliva, which helps with chewing, swallowing and keeping your mouth comfortable. When these glands are affected by stones, inflammation, infection or other conditions, they may cause noticeable symptoms.

Understand the cause. Treat the problem—not just the symptom.

A facial injury can look much less serious on the outside than it actually is.

Bruising and swelling may gradually settle, but an underlying facial fracture can still affect your bite, vision, sensation, jaw movement or facial symmetry. Facial trauma can involve the jaw, cheekbones, nose, eye socket or other facial bones—and each injury needs to be assessed based on both the clinical findings and appropriate imaging.

A jaw cyst can sometimes grow quietly without causing pain or obvious swelling.

Some jaw cysts are discovered only when an X-ray is taken for another reason. By the time symptoms appear, the lesion may have already grown and could be affecting the surrounding bone or teeth. Not every jaw cyst is dangerous, and the treatment depends on its type, size, location and effect on surrounding structures.

The important message: absence of pain doesn’t always mean absence of a problem.

A hit to the nose may look like a simple injury—but there can be more going on beneath the surface.

A nasal fracture can affect not only the shape of the nose, but also the internal structures that help you breathe. The nasal bones, septum and surrounding structures all need to be considered when evaluating a significant nasal injury.

If your nose looks different, feels blocked, or breathing has changed after an injury, get it properly evaluated.

Your jaw does more than shape your face—it can also play a role in your airway.

A receding lower jaw can position the tongue further backward and, in some people, reduce the space available in the upper airway. This may be associated with mouth breathing and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). As a maxillofacial surgeon, the important question isn’t only “How does the jaw look?”—but also “How is the jaw affecting function?”

Sometimes, the airway story starts with the jaw.

Not every bite problem can be corrected with braces alone.

Sometimes, the issue lies in the position or relationship of the jaws, not just the alignment of the teeth. In selected cases, orthognathic (jaw) surgery may be considered as part of a coordinated treatment plan with orthodontics. Orthognathic surgery addresses the jaws.

Going under anesthesia can feel like the most mysterious part of surgery for a patient. But while you’re asleep, your surgical and anesthesia team is continuously monitoring and managing what’s happening inside your body.

In maxillofacial surgery, airway management can be particularly important because procedures often involve the mouth, jaw and facial structures.

You may be asleep.
Your surgical team never stops watching.
