Your smile is an extension of your personality.
Restore Your Health
Injuries to the face can have severe repercussions beyond the pain and suffering they cause. People who have experienced damage to their face and teeth may find that others treat them differently because of the way they look, which can affect their personal or professional life.
Facial injuries can also make it difficult to work through emotions surrounding the initial trauma. Many people are left with lifetime reminders of a frightening and painful time and feel anxiety and stress when they look in the mirror.
At Coal Creek Oral Surgery and Dental Implant Center, we want to help you through the healing process. This may mean corrective surgery to help restore your appearance, your comfort, and the function of your teeth.
