Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent tooth replacement solutions that mimic natural teeth in function and appearance. Our surgeons use advanced techniques to ensure proper integration with jawbone tissue. Patients benefit from improved chewing ability, speech clarity, and facial structure preservation through this durable solution.
Same Day Teeth
This innovative procedure allows patients to receive full-arch tooth replacement in a single appointment. Using cutting-edge technology, we place implants and attach prosthetic teeth simultaneously. This eliminates multiple surgeries and provides immediate functionality for patients seeking rapid smile restoration.
Jaw Surgery
Corrective jaw surgery addresses misalignment issues affecting bite function and facial aesthetics. Our surgeons reposition jaws to improve chewing efficiency and create balanced facial proportions. This procedure also helps alleviate sleep apnea and temporomandibular joint disorders.
Oral Pathology
We provide diagnostic biopsies and treatment planning for oral cancer and other pathological conditions. Early detection services help identify abnormalities before they progress. Our team coordinates care with oncologists for comprehensive treatment of diagnosed cases.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Routine extraction of impacted wisdom teeth prevents future dental complications. We perform these procedures using local anesthesia in most cases. Early removal helps avoid crowding, infections, and cyst formation associated with problematic third molars.

Report
I went to Dr. Dingwerth for a 2nd opinion regarding my oral surgery. He was so nice, reassuring, and very professional. All of the staff were welcoming, kind, and compassionate and caring as well. I was referred to Dr. Dingwerth by our friend (our son's orthodontist)Jeff Genecov. Outstanding referral! I can't say enough great things about Dr. Dingwerth and my experience. He called to check on me later on the day of my surgery. When I called to ask questions everyone was so helpful and kind. Outstanding, five stars!

Dr. Dingwerth and staff are professional and courteous. I went to them for a tooth extraction and every detail of the procedure was explained to me to my satisfaction. I would highly recommend Dr. Dingwerth's office for any type of oral surgery. Their follow up to your procedure is also very professional. When it comes to oral surgery you want to use the best dentist you can find and Dr. Dingwerth fits that bill. Highly recommend!

Had to get a molar extracted which is one of the things that I never ever want to go through. Dr Dingwerth and his staff made this into a non-event. The procedure was quick and (amazingly) pain free! Amazing! If you need to get it done, I would highly recommend this excellent doctor.
