Why remove all four wisdom teeth? Even if they are free of infection and pain, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon might recommend removing wisdom teeth due to the potential risks of gum disease, decay and infection. Your OMS will discuss the best plan of action for you. Visit MyOMS.org to find a surgeon near you and schedule an evaluation.

Dental implants are a long-term solution for missing teeth.
Not only do they look and feel like natural teeth, they also:
- Allow fewer dietary restrictions.
- Help reduce bone loss.
- Avoid discomfort from ill-fitting dentures.

Dental implant surgery is best performed by oral and maxillofacial surgeons (OMSs) with specialized education and training.

A bone graft may be recommended after a tooth extraction to rebuild and strengthen the jawbone – especially before placing a dental implant. An OMS can use bone from your body, a donor or synthetic materials. As an expert in bone reconstruction, an OMS will help you make the best decision about what kind of bone to use and how best to use it.
