Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide durable, natural-looking solutions for missing teeth. Surgically placed titanium posts integrate with the jawbone, offering stable support for artificial teeth. This procedure restores chewing function, speech clarity, and confidence in your smile while promoting long-term oral health.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Minimally invasive wisdom teeth removal prevents oral health complications. Our surgeons address impacted or misaligned molars using advanced techniques to reduce discomfort and accelerate healing. This procedure preserves adjacent teeth alignment and maintains overall dental wellness for patients aged 16-20 and beyond.
Orthognathic Surgery
Orthognathic surgery corrects functional jaw misalignments and facial asymmetry. Through precise bone repositioning, we address bite issues, speech difficulties, and chewing problems while enhancing facial aesthetics. Virtual surgical planning ensures optimal outcomes for improved dental function and facial harmony.
TMJ Treatment
TMJ treatment alleviates temporomandibular joint disorders causing pain and dysfunction. We employ multidisciplinary approaches including physical therapy, custom oral appliances, and minimally invasive procedures to restore normal jaw movement, reduce headaches, and improve quality of life for patients with chronic jaw discomfort.
Craniofacial Reconstruction
Craniofacial reconstruction addresses congenital defects and traumatic injuries to the skull and face. Our specialists restore both function and appearance through complex surgical techniques, treating conditions like cleft palate, facial fractures, and post-traumatic deformities to improve patients' physical capabilities and self-confidence.

I had one of the best dental experiences here (and I've been to a lot of dentists and had a lot of work done). The kindness to the front desk staff is amazing and they seemed to genuinely care about you. They are kind and easy to book appointments with. I often pick a dentist by how I'm treated when I make the first appointment. The facility was nice and clean and I was seen right on time. Dr. Neilson was kind, patient and explained my procedure very well.
I had a tooth extraction, implant and bone graft all in the same day and was feeling nervous. But the staff was so caring, calm and gentle with me. It truly made, what would otherwise be a scary procedure, a calm and efficient experience. I also really loved how efficient the staff were with making sure I understood my patient costs well before the procedure. No surprises the day of! I have to have the same procedure done again next year on a different tooth and I'm no longer nervous about it knowing I'll be in good hands!

I just had my wisdom teeth extracted in April by Dr. Brady Nielsen. Hands-down, one of the best medical team and doctor I've ever encountered! The nurses that took care of me made sure that I was comfortable and not nervous. Also, the staff were very professional and friendly every time I visited their office :. Post surgery, I had minimal pain and only mild discomfort. Besides that, everything went smoothly and I would like to thank their team for their expert treatment. I highly recommend Lakeshore OMS to others in the area!
