Oral and Facial Surgeons of Michigan

Dental Examination
With an oral examination and x-rays of the mouth we can evaluate the position of the wisdom teeth and predict if there are present or may cause future problems. Studies have shown that early evaluation and treatment result in a superior outcome for the patient. Patients are generally first evaluated in the mid-teenage years by their dentist, orthodontist or by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon.

Crowns
Advances in dental implant technology have made it possible, in select cases, to extract teeth and place implants with crowns at one visit, this procedure is called “immediate loading” of the dental implant.
Bridges
Dental Bonding

Root Canal Treatment
Isolated injuries to teeth are quite common and may require the expertise of various dental specialists. Oral surgeons usually are involved in treating fractures in the supporting bone or in replanting teeth that have been displaced or knocked out. These types of injuries are treated by one of a number of forms of splinting (stabilizing by wiring or bonding teeth together). If a tooth is knocked out, it should be placed in salt water or milk. The sooner the tooth is re-inserted into the dental socket, the better chance it will survive. Therefore, the patient should see a dentist or oral surgeon as soon as possible. Never attempt to wipe the tooth off, since remnants of the ligament that hold the tooth in the jaw are attached and are vital to the success of replanting the tooth. Other dental specialists may be called upon such as endodontists, who may be asked to perform root canal therapy, and/or restorative dentists who may need to repair or rebuild fractured teeth. In the event that injured teeth cannot be saved or repaired, dental implants are often now utilized as replacements for missing teeth.

Dentures
Some patients require minor oral surgical procedures before receiving a partial or complete denture, in order to ensure the maximum level of comfort. A denture sits on the bone ridge, so it is very important that the bone is the proper shape and size. If a tooth needs to be extracted, the underlying bone might be left sharp and uneven. For the best fit of a denture, the bone might need to be smoothed out or reshaped. Occasionally, excess bone would need to be removed prior to denture insertion.

Dental Implants
Today, we have the ability to grow bone where needed. This not only gives us the opportunity to place implants of proper length and width, it also gives us a chance to restore functionality and aesthetic appearance.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Dr. Jabero loves to care for patients and it shows with his warm personality and wonderful chair-side manner! He excels at making you feel comfortable in the office for any type of Oral Surgery procedure. His love for wisdom teeth surgery, placing dental implants, and procedures that require anesthesia are what makes him one of the best Oral Surgeons around.
Jaw Surgery
People who can benefit from orthognathic surgery include those with an improper bite or jaws that are positioned incorrectly. Jaw growth is a gradual process and in some instances, the upper and lower jaws may grow at different rates. The result can be a host of problems that can affect chewing function, speech, long-term oral health and appearance. Injury to the jaw and birth defects can also affect jaw alignment.
Pre-prosthetic Surgery
Maxillofacial Surgery
Dr. Jabero was born and raised in Flushing, Michigan. He is a dedicated Michigan Wolverine, completing his Biology and Dental degrees at the University of Michigan. He did sneak over to “the dark side” while attending The Ohio State University for his Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery training. He will tell you that “I only bleed maize and blue!” despite being in Columbus for many years.
Tooth Extractions
These implants do not require a second procedure to uncover them, but do require a minimum of six weeks of healing time before artificial teeth, or crowns, are placed. There are even situations where the implants can be placed at the same time as a tooth extraction – further minimizing the number of surgical procedures.
Bone Grafting
Over a period of time, the jawbone associated with missing teeth atrophies or is reabsorbed. This often leaves a condition in which there is poor quality and quantity of bone suitable for placement of dental implants. In these situations, most patients are not candidates for placement of dental implants without a bone grafting procedure.

Orthodontics
Orthognathic surgery is needed when jaws don’t meet correctly and/or teeth don’t seem to fit with jaws. Teeth are straightened with orthodontics and corrective jaw surgery repositions a misaligned jaw. This not only improves facial appearance, but also ensures that teeth meet correctly and function properly.
