Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent solutions for missing teeth through titanium posts surgically placed in the jawbone. This service restores natural chewing function and prevents bone loss while offering aesthetic benefits. Patients regain confidence in speaking and eating without removable dentures.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
We remove impacted or problematic wisdom teeth using minimally invasive techniques to prevent overcrowding, infections, and jaw pain. Post-operative care includes detailed recovery instructions to minimize swelling and promote healing.
Laser Surgery
Laser dentistry reduces bleeding and discomfort during procedures while accelerating tissue healing. This technology enables precise treatment of soft tissue issues with minimal need for traditional surgical tools.
3D Imaging
Our 3D imaging system captures detailed cross-sectional views of teeth, jawbones, and facial structures. This technology enhances diagnostic accuracy for complex cases like implant placement and TMJ disorders.
Tooth Extraction
We perform extractions for severely damaged or infected teeth using careful techniques to preserve surrounding bone structure. Post-extraction options include immediate implant placement or bridgework.

Awesome doctor! Horrible staff. Specifically asked the staff to send out for an EOB to my insurance. They refused to send it out. Later received a bill for $200 more than what I paid for. Called two weeks ago and spoke to a lady concerning this and she said she would get back to me and never did. Then I called today & the manager Nicollet defended her staff who made the error and in addition tried to blame the situation on me.
I'm not refusing to pay the bill. I'm just questioning why, something I requested and had plenty of time to find the information about wasn't done prior to the surgery. If you need to get an oral surgery done, go somewhere else!

David took out my wisdom teeth and also helped me through the recovery process when I got dry sockets. He was very accommodating and I'd highly recommend him. He saw me on very short notice when I was in immense pain.

My first time visiting Dr. Sykes office was extremely positive. Office staff very professional in answering all questipns. Dr. assistants were fantastic in making a very nervous patient feel at ease and Dr Sykes was both professional and comforting during entire extractipn procedure. Can't say enough about this practice. Thanks to entire staff. Brian Ardell

Very unfortunate experience. Doctor is semi retired so trying to get an appointment or getting hold of them will be a horrendous experience. Also they will make mistakes which will cost you money, and time. They are definitely unprofessional and I do not recommend them. I wish my dentist didnt write referrals for them which I will do when I get to the office. Again doctor might have been good before his retirement but now the business is unpredictable and unprofessional.
