Anesthesia and Sedation

Oral surgeons are trained and licensed to administer office-based general anesthesia through an IV, ensuring patients remain comfortable or fully unconscious during extensive procedures.

We review your health history at your consultation and recommend the right level of anesthesia for your procedure, from local anesthesia to IV sedation.

Teeth Extractions

When a tooth is too damaged, decayed, or impacted to save, a surgical tooth extraction protects the surrounding bone structure and nerves. Oral surgeons handle complex and emergency extractions with advanced training that helps avoid nerve damage and supports smooth healing.

If you plan to replace the tooth, we can often place a bone graft at the same visit to preserve the socket for a future dental implant.

Dental Implants

Dental implants replace missing teeth from the root up, so they look, feel, and function like natural teeth. We place single-tooth implants, implant-supported restorations, and full mouth dental implants, with options that work well for seniors and long-term denture wearers.

As an oral surgeon, Dr. Baldwin has the surgical training to plan placement precisely, manage complications, and pair implants with bone grafting when needed. We review the cost of dental implants, insurance coverage, and payment options before treatment begins.

Bone and Gum Grafting

A dental bone graft rebuilds the jawbone that has thinned after tooth loss so it can support a dental implant or stay healthy on its own. It is often the first step before implant placement, and we explain the bone graft cost clearly before treatment begins.

We also provide gingival (gum) grafting to restore receded gum tissue, protect the roots of your teeth, and improve the look of your smile.

Orthognathic (Jaw) Surgery

Corrective jaw surgery, also called orthognathic surgery, treats upper and lower jaws that do not line up correctly. It can improve how you bite, chew, breathe, and speak, and it often works alongside orthodontic care.

Our jaw surgery patients gain improved function and a more balanced facial appearance. We coordinate closely with your orthodontist and review jaw surgery costs and insurance up front.

Wisdom Teeth Removal

Wisdom teeth usually appear in the late teens or early twenties, and most mouths do not have room for them. Impacted wisdom teeth can crowd nearby teeth and cause pain, swelling, and infection.

Removing them early often makes wisdom teeth removal and recovery easier. We walk you through what to expect, from sedation options to healing timelines, and review costs with and without insurance before your procedure.

What to Expect at Your First Visit

Many patients come to us through a referral from their dentist or orthodontist, and you are also welcome to schedule directly. At your consultation, Dr. Baldwin reviews your imaging, explains your diagnosis and treatment options, and answers your questions about costs, insurance, anesthesia, and recovery, so there are no surprises.
