Wisdom Teeth

Third molars are commonly referred to as wisdom teeth. They are usually the last teeth to develop and are located in the back of your mouth, behind your second molars.

Dental Implants

A natural tooth consists of a root and a crown. If you compare natural teeth to implant-supported replacement teeth, you’ll see they have the same basic parts.

Fixed Prosthesis/All-on-4

An Implant Supported Overdenture is a contemporary restoration that has revolutionized the way surgeons and dentists think of replacing a full set of teeth.

Bone Grafting

Missing teeth over a period of time can cause your jaw bone to atrophy, or resorb. We can graft bone to create a solid foundation for your new teeth.

Dental Implants

Losing a tooth can compromise your eating ability, as well as affect your smile and self-confidence. If you have experienced the loss of one or more teeth, you may be a good candidate for dental implants. Here at Forsyth Oral Surgery and Implant Center, we are experienced and skilled in using dental implants to help you smile again.

Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom teeth removal is one of the most commonly performed oral surgeries in the world. The majority of people develop wisdom teeth at some point in their teens or early adulthood, and it typically makes sense to have those wisdom teeth removed to avoid complications down the road. At Forsyth Oral Surgery & Implant Center, our board-certified oral surgeons perform wisdom teeth removal procedures every day. We have over 60 combined years of experience keeping patients safe and comfortable during the wisdom teeth removal process.
