Dental Examination

Crowns
Dr. Martin provides revolutionary digital crown lengthening for your “gummy” smile. Beginning with facial photos, digital scans, and CBCT imaging, he receives assistance from his partnering dental lab to design your ideal smile. Once you’ve approved your new look, he’ll use a custom guide placed in your mouth to expertly reduce the soft tissues, so they arch gracefully over each tooth. With this streamlined procedure, we can reveal your symmetrical and beautiful new smile in one efficient appointment!
Bridges
There are many solutions to recover your smile, including dental bridges and dental implants, which offer the function and aesthetics of real teeth, jaw protection, and unequaled longevity. You may be surprised at how quickly you’re able to eat, speak, laugh, and smile again once your teeth are replaced by our team at Oral & Facial Surgery of North Texas. If you have failing or missing teeth in Lewisville, TX, reach out, we’ll help you find the tooth replacement solution you need for a complete, confident, and healthy smile.
Restorative Dentistry

Root Canal Treatment

Gingivectomy and Gingivoplasty
Too much gum tissue over the teeth can cause both aesthetic and functional concerns. A gingivectomy surgically removes the excess tissues to improve smile symmetry, correct tissue overgrowth, and manage periodontal disease. Dr. Martin takes a minimally invasive approach to gingivectomy treatment to restore proper function without damaging or removing healthy tissues.

Dentures
Dentures have stood the test of time and are still in wide use for tooth replacement today. While they offer generally acceptable performance, they do have their downsides. If you’re already wearing dentures you may know these all too well. Dentures stay in place with suction or adhesive pastes. Through jawbone recession and wear they can come loose—often at the worst times. You may be eating or speaking with a friend and the dentures suddenly slip, embarrassing you. Their instability can also cause painful friction against your gums. If these concern you, our team at Oral & Facial Surgery of North Texas encourages you to consider options that put an end to loose dentures in Lewisville, TX.

Dental Implants
Your jawbone is literally the foundation of your smile. Your teeth are anchored in it and your gum tissue wrapped tightly around it as a protective layer. Your smile aesthetics and function depend heavily upon you having a strong, healthy jaw. So, what happens if you lose jawbone mass? You may have problems eating and speaking normally. Your face will take on a sunken, prematurely aged appearance. You may lose teeth. In fact, many patients who come to Oral & Facial Surgery of North Texas with severe bone loss wish to receive dental implants but have been told they no longer qualify due to their bone loss. The good news is that there are multiple solutions for severe bone loss in Lewisville, TX—a condition best treated by a specialist with extensive surgical training. Let’s take a look at why you lose bone and what you can do to regain it.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
No matter what pediatric oral surgery your child needs, it can be a confusing and stressful time. You may have many questions and feel worried about the process and recovery. Will surgery go predictably? Who can I trust to care for my child? What are the risks? Dr. Richard Martin, our experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeon, has the answers and the gentle compassion to put you and your child at ease. Dr. Martin is one of the few oral surgeons in the Lewisville, TX area to routinely treat children and has become a leader in his community as a result—an
Jaw Surgery
Oral and maxillofacial surgeons are the only dental specialists who have the advanced training and experience to provide corrective jaw surgery. They receive additional years of intensive surgical training and residencies outside of dental school to perfect the innovative and specialized surgeries that correct jaw misalignment and deformities. Additionally, oral surgeons have both dental and medical degrees that give them the comprehensive knowledge and expertise to treat complex problems and manage any emergency that may arise. They also have the skill to ensure you experience aesthetic improvements alongside any functional corrections of your jaw problems. Working closely with your dentist and orthodontist, our oral and maxillofacial surgeon in Lewisville, TX can provide specialized treatment that improves jaw and tooth function. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons are truly the experts in jaw surgery and the superior choice for your treatment!
Maxillofacial Surgery
Oral and maxillofacial surgery is an excellent investment in an individual’s medical and psychological well-being. We believe that financial considerations should not be an obstacle to obtaining this important health service from our team. Being sensitive to the fact that different people have different needs in fulfilling their financial obligations, our team at Oral & Facial Surgery of North Texas provides a variety of payment and financing options to ensure the affordability of our treatments.
Osseous Surgery
Gum disease is a dangerous and progressive gum infection that begins when bacterial plaque and tartar buildup inflame the soft tissue around teeth. Left untreated, gingivitis can progress to advanced stages characterized by irreversible bone and tissue damage, with significant risk of tooth loss. Dr. Martin treats gum disease with osseous surgery to remove diseased tissues, clean tartar from the teeth, and clear bacteria from periodontal pockets. The goal of treatment is to eliminate or reduce the pockets around teeth and minimize bacterial plaque accumulation.
Tooth Extractions
Infected, damaged teeth can cause pain so severe that eating, drinking, and even sleeping become a challenge. Although we always recommend saving natural teeth, if a tooth is unsalvageable, we advise a tooth extraction in order to save your overall health. Left in place, a sick tooth can compromise the surrounding teeth, bone, and gums and cause lasting pain. With expert training, our oral and maxillofacial surgeon is considered a
Ridge Augmentation
Ridge augmentation refers to a bone grafting procedure that restores the natural density and contours of part or the entirety of a jaw ridge. Restoring healthy bone levels to a jaw arch can make dentures more comfortable and fitted to your gumline.
Bone Grafting
As the foundation of your smile, your bone plays an important role in your oral health and function. It supports your teeth and helps preserve your facial structure. But it needs the stimulation of tooth roots to remain dense and strong. When teeth are extracted or lost, the jawbone no longer receives stimulation and will resorb and shrink. Bone loss can lead to shifting and loosening of remaining teeth, loss of lip and cheek support, jaw joint problems, and more. To help ensure that these functional and aesthetic consequences do not occur or worsen, we provide bone grafting in Lewisville, TX.

Orthodontics
Braces
When a canine tooth does not erupt or become impacted, expose and bond treatment may be necessary. Working with your child’s orthodontist, we will first wait until braces have created adequate space for the canine to fit. Then we will expose this tooth during a minor surgical procedure and attach a bracket and chain. Over time, this tooth will be guided into proper position and eliminate functional problems associated with crooked teeth or a bad bite.
