  Bone Grafting

  Bone grafting is a surgical procedure that increases the amount of hard tissue in the jaw. Using a graft, an oral surgeon can replace missing bone or simply build up an area to strengthen it. Bone grafting can help alleviate issues affecting the teeth and gums, and also prepares patients to receive a dental implant at a later date. Though the surgery may sound painful, our oral surgeons, Christopher Burton and Jared Rasmussen, have many methods of reducing discomfort during and after the procedure. In addition to detailed pain management instructions, our team can prescribe pain relievers to manage discomfort as you heal.

  Tooth Extraction

  Oral surgeons are dentists who have additional, specialized education and training in treating oral health problems involving the face and jaws. While some dentists may be able to do simple, non-surgical extractions, they usually send their patients to an oral surgeon for complex extractions or other dental surgeries. At our Orem and Saratoga Springs, UT, practice, we offer local anesthesia combined with relaxing sedation dentistry when surgical extraction is needed or when a patient finds dentist appointments stressful. We use the correct monitoring, training, and equipment to make sure our patients experience safe, comfortable, and efficient extractions.

  Dental Implants

  Christopher Burton, DDS, MS, and Jared Rasmussen, DMD, MD, can turn your smile dream into smile reality using dental implants and the most up-to-date dentistry care available. Maybe your general dentist has recommended dental implants as the best way to replace one missing tooth or a full arch of teeth. Or, you might be tired of covering your mouth due to an incomplete smile. Either way, requesting a consultation at our Saratoga Springs, UT, oral surgery practice is the best way to learn how implants can change your smile and your life. We also have an office in Orem, UT, for your convenience.
