Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide permanent, natural-looking solutions for missing teeth. Our surgeons use advanced 3D imaging to place titanium posts that fuse with jawbone tissue, creating stable anchors for crowns or dentures. This procedure restores chewing function and prevents bone loss while maintaining facial structure.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
We specialize in safe, efficient extraction of impacted wisdom teeth. Using minimally invasive techniques and sedation options, we reduce post-operative discomfort and complications. Early intervention prevents overcrowding, infections, and damage to adjacent teeth while promoting faster healing.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting rebuilds jaw volume to support dental implants or address defects from trauma. Our surgeons use autogenous bone or synthetic materials to stimulate natural regeneration, creating a solid foundation for restorations while maintaining facial aesthetics.
Facial Trauma
Emergency treatment for facial injuries includes realigning fractured bones and repairing soft tissue damage. We employ rigid fixation techniques with titanium plates to restore structural integrity, minimizing scarring and ensuring proper healing of maxillofacial regions.
Sedation
We offer intravenous sedation to ensure patient comfort during procedures. Administered by trained specialists, this method induces a relaxed state while maintaining safe vital function monitoring, allowing complex treatments to be completed efficiently with reduced anxiety.

Report
The staff are all extremely patient, kind, and helpful. Dr. Paollela answers all your questions and is careful and congenial in conversation. This is the second surgery I've had with him and both times recovery has been exactly as it should be. I recommend the practice with no reservations.

I was suffering from a tooth infection and requested to be seen before my actual appointment. Amy was kind enough to put me in as a surgical patient. Dr. Bontempi was able to remove the infected tooth.
