1Dental Implants
Dental implants are a durable and lifelike replacement for a single or multiple missing teeth. They are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth, offering a natural appearance with unmatched strength and stability. A dental implant consists of a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone, serving as an artificial tooth root, and a custom-made crown that mimics the appearance and function of a natural tooth. This everyday standard procedure not only restores your smile’s aesthetics but also preserves your oral health by preventing bone loss and maintaining the alignment of surrounding teeth. Dental implants offer a long-lasting, comfortable, and functional alternative to traditional dentures or bridges, allowing you to regain your confidence and enjoy a fully functional set of teeth again.
-
2Wisdom Teeth Extractions
Wisdom teeth extractions are a standard surgical procedure at Nevada Oral & Facial Surgery. Extractions are often recommended when your third molars become impacted, causing discomfort or potential oral health issues. The extraction process is typically straightforward, and our team of experienced oral surgeons ensures our patients are comfortable and pain-free. Removing problematic wisdom teeth can alleviate pain, prevent overcrowding, and safeguard the overall health of your smile. Our team uses advanced imaging, sedation, and technology to perform safe and precise wisdom tooth extractions, ensuring patient comfort and minimizing recovery time.

All-On-4
All-On-4 is a procedure known as full arch dental implants, a remarkable solution for those seeking to replace an entire arch of missing teeth! This comprehensive treatment restores your smile’s aesthetics and functionality, offering a permanent, lifelike solution that feels just like natural teeth. With All-On-4 dental implants, you can enjoy the confidence of a complete and stable set of teeth, enabling you to eat, speak, and smile easily.
Additional Services
Symptoms Treated at Nevada Oral & Facial Surgery, Henderson, NV
We treat a range of complex symptoms that often point to underlying issues requiring surgical intervention:
-
Jaw pain or stiffness
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder or misaligned jaw structures often cause this symptom. When conservative treatments fail, corrective jaw surgery may provide lasting relief.
-
Swollen or bleeding gums
These concerns signal gum disease. We use LANAP to gently remove infected tissue, encouraging the natural healing of bone and gums.
-
Missing or severely damaged teeth
Knocked-out teeth affect appearance and function. However, this issue can be permanently addressed with dental implants or All-On-4 full-arch solutions.
-
Loose or uncomfortable dentures
Such dentures can interfere with daily life. Implant-supported restorations, such as zirconia fixed bridges, provide improved stability and a more natural feel.
-
Receding gums or persistent bad breath
These are symptoms of advanced periodontal disease. Prompt treatment with LANAP helps slow progression and preserves the surrounding bone structure.
-
Facial trauma or oral injuries
Whether caused by accidents or sports, these injuries require urgent medical attention. Our practice provides oral surgery for fractures, dislodged teeth, and soft tissue damage.
-
Snoring or interrupted sleep
These are signs of obstructive sleep apnea, especially when accompanied by fatigue. Surgical airway correction is an option for those who don’t respond well to CPAP therapy.
-
Painful or impacted wisdom teeth
Wisdom teeth issues can cause swelling, crowding, or infections. Our experts offer surgical extractions to relieve discomfort and prevent future complications.
-
Clicking or locking of the jaw
This symptom may indicate TMJ dysfunction. A comprehensive evaluation can help determine if jaw surgery could restore function and comfort.
-
Bone loss in the jaw
Significant bone loss limits the ability to support traditional implants. Zygomatic dental implants offer a graft-free alternative, anchored in the cheekbone for maximum stability.
Pre-Anesthesia Guidelines
Before any procedure, our team makes sure patients are fully prepared for anesthesia. We customize each plan based on your medical history and current medications to ensure safety.
We provide clear fasting instructions, typically requiring no food or drink for several hours prior to the procedure. Patients also receive medication guidelines, including which prescriptions or supplements to pause or continue.
Lifestyle recommendations, such as avoiding alcohol and smoking, help improve how the body responds to anesthesia and heal afterward. On the scheduled day, patients should wear loose-fitting clothing and refrain from wearing jewelry or makeup. They must also bring someone they trust to drive them home and stay with them after surgery.
These preparation steps reduce risk, keep the process smooth, and support a more comfortable recovery.
Recovery After Surgery
Recovery directly impacts surgical results. Our team of experts provides clear, personalized post-operation instructions to manage symptoms, avoid complications, and promote healing.
Patients typically experience mild swelling, soreness, or bleeding in the early stages. We recommend resting, eating soft foods, staying hydrated, and avoiding straws, smoking, or forceful rinsing to protect the surgical site. We also guide each patient on when and how to resume brushing and rinsing, depending on the procedure.
Instructions are tailored to the patients’ needs, whether for implants, extractions, or bone grafts. Patients learn what to watch for, such as prolonged pain or swelling, and when to call the office.
Following these steps promotes a smoother and quicker recovery, as well as lasting results.
Financial Flexibility and Accepted Payment Options
We work with most major dental insurance providers and help patients navigate the claims process to maximize their benefits. For those without coverage, several financing options are available through trusted partners, including Proceed Finance, CareCredit®, and GreenSky®.
The office accepts multiple forms of payment, including cash, checks, and all major credit cards. This means straightforward, flexible billing for every patient. Treatment plans include clear cost breakdowns and tailored financial solutions to meet a wide range of needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
How Much Does Treatment Cost In Henderson, NV?
The cost of dental implants is based on many factors, including how many teeth are missing and for how long, the types of materials used, and what additional procedures are needed. Our team can help you apply for dental financing to help you afford treatment.
-
Can Dental Implants Be Placed Immediately After Tooth Extractions?
Yes, in many cases. Our surgeons use advanced 3D imaging to assess bone density and determine if immediate implant placement is possible. Techniques like All-On-4® allow us to strategically position implants during the same appointment as extractions, reducing treatment time and preserving jawbone structure.
-
How Is Pain Managed During Dental Implant Surgery In Henderson, NV?
We prioritize patient comfort with options like IV sedation and local anesthesia. Our minimally invasive surgical techniques reduce tissue trauma, which minimizes post-operative discomfort. Most patients manage recovery with over-the-counter pain relievers and report less discomfort than expected.
-
Can Implants Stabilize Loose or Ill-Fitting Dentures?
Yes. Implant-supported dentures use 2-4 strategically placed implants to anchor full or partial dentures, eliminating slippage and improving chewing function. This is an ideal solution for patients seeking a more secure, natural-feeling alternative to traditional dentures.
-
Does Bone Loss Disqualify Me from Dental Implants In Henderson, NV?
Not necessarily. Our surgeons specialize in bone grafting and zygomatic (cheekbone) implants to address bone loss. All-On-4® implants also bypass the need for grafts in many cases by angling implants into existing dense bone areas.
-
How Do You Treat Complex Dental Conditions Like Bone Loss or Impacted Teeth?
Our board-certified oral surgeons use advanced surgical techniques tailored to each patient’s unique needs. For bone loss, we offer bone grafting to rebuild jaw structure or zygomatic implants anchored in the cheekbone for severe atrophy. For impacted teeth, we collaborate with orthodontists to guide eruption when possible or perform precise extractions using 3D imaging to avoid nerves and sinus cavities. Conditions like cysts, tumors, or jaw misalignment are treated with minimally invasive surgery, followed by restorative solutions like dental implants or bone regeneration. Every treatment plan prioritizes long-term oral health, function, and aesthetics.
-
What Happens If I Delay Treatment for Dental Issues Near Henderson, NV?
Ignoring dental conditions can lead to irreversible damage. For example:
- Impacted Wisdom Teeth: Untreated impactions risk infections, cysts, and damage to adjacent teeth.
- Missing Teeth: Bone loss accelerates, causing facial collapse and shifting teeth, which complicates future replacements.
- Bone Loss: Weakens the jaw, limits implant options, and ages facial appearance.
- Cysts/Tumors: Benign growths can become malignant or destroy healthy tissue.
- Jaw Misalignment: Chronic pain, headaches, sleep apnea, and difficulty chewing may develop.
Early intervention prevents complications and simplifies treatment. Our team specializes in reversing damage, even in advanced cases, using techniques like grafting and All-On-4® implants.
-
What payment methods are accepted?
We take payments in the form of cash, checks, and all major credit cards. Financing is available through CareCredit®, Proceed Finance, GreenSky®, and more.
We accept most major dental insurance plans, and our staff is available to assist with claims to help maximize your coverage.
-
Is parking available at the office?
The location offers free on-site parking with dedicated accessible spaces near the entrance.
-
Are there nearby services to support recovery?
Pharmacies like Walgreens and CVS, as well as diagnostic labs like Quest Diagnostics – Henderson Green Valley – are within a short distance from our facility. Additionally, hotels such as Homewood Suites, Hilton Garden Inn, and Comfort Inn are located in close proximity, offering convenience for both local and out-of-town patients.
