Wisdom Teeth Extractions
Wisdom teeth and other extractions are routine oral surgery procedures frequently performed under general anesthesia for your safety and comfort.
Oftentimes, implants require building up a stronger foundation in the jaw through bone grafting and or sinus lift procedures. Bone grafting can prepare implant sites that have inadequate bone structure due to previous extractions, gum disease or injuries.
Several methods of anesthesia are available for oral surgery procedures to enhance your safety and overall experience. Oral Surgeons are specialty trained to administer General Anesthesia and receive extensive experience through hospital based residencies.
An extraction might be recommended if you have severe tooth decay, gum disease (periodontitis), dental trauma, or wisdom tooth complications. Sometimes extractions are performed to prepare you for orthodontics, dentures, or other prosthetic devices.
Oral pathology identifies and manages diseases and abnormalities affecting the mouth and jaw. An oral surgeon, like Dr. Nesbitt, is trained to diagnose various diseases affecting the mouth, jaw, salivary glands, temporomandibular joints, facial muscles, and more.
An expose & bond procedure is used when a tooth is stuck or buried underneath the gums and requires surgery to place a bracket on the tooth and pull it into place over time.
This is the best Oral Surgeon I have ever been to. On August 25, 2022, Dr. Travis and his team saved my life. I could not talk for almost a week because of shooting pain in my right jaw. I thought it was a bad tooth or a root canal, so I asked a dentist to pull my teeth out so the pain would disappear. Well, that didn't help, I was referred to Dr. Travis, and when he met with me, He could barely understand what I was saying, but he took the time to figure out the problem without me losing more teeth. He told me about this rare illness called Trigeminal Neuralgia. He prescribed me some medication, and within a few days, the shocking pain had stopped, and I was feeling much better. I want to thank him and his team. They are the best!!

I had an emergency procedure that needed to be done. Dr. Nesbit’s team not only fit me into an appointment window, they also did it with grace and service. His entire staff was helpful, efficient, and knowledgeable. There was not a rushed feel because of an emergency appointment rather as if I had been a patient there for years. Thank you Dr and your entire team for a wonderful experience that easily could have been bad.
