About Us

Report

We hold ourselves to a higher standard than any practice in the community. In 2006, OSA became the first and only OMS office in Northern New England to meet the rigorous standards of the Joint Commission by achieving accredited status. Like hospitals, we welcome unannounced inspections every three years that ensure our facility meets critical standards in several aspects of patient care and organizational safety. Our most recent inspection in 2018 found no areas for improvement, a rare feat for any facility.

Procedures

Report

OSA treats patients for a wide range of conditions in both office and hospital settings. These include dentoalveolar surgery (including wisdom teeth), dental and maxillofacial implants, pediatric oral surgery, orthognathic and reconstructive surgery, maxillofacial tumors, cleft lip and palate, major and minor bone grafting, snoring and sleep apnea, temporomandibular joint problems, and maxillofacial trauma.

Implants

Report

Your teeth affect your whole body. When they're healthy, you're healthier too. A missing tooth can affect your bite, speech and eating choices. As you rely more on your remaining teeth, you increase the chance they will wear out prematurely, or be damaged or lost. You may also experience headaches and/or jaw pain.

Bone Grafting

Report

Missing teeth over a period of time can cause your jaw bone to atrophy, or resorb. This often results in poor quality and quantity of bone suitable for the placement of dental implants as well as long term shifting of remaining teeth and changes to facial structure. Most patients, in these situations, are not candidates for dental implants.
