The In-Office Advantage
We eliminate the scheduling delays, new office anxiety, duplicate records, and higher costs associated with standard external specialist referrals.

No referral runaround

Most patients never need to leave our practice for surgical care. Everything is handled in-house by the local team you already know and trust.

Complete records, zero gaps

Your full medical history, 3D digital imaging, and long-term treatment blueprints are already in our hands — no starting over with a new provider.

Sedation for your comfort

We offer customized nitrous oxide or oral sedation sedation parameters. You never have to white-knuckle your way through necessary surgical procedures.

Oral surgery doesn't have to mean a specialist referral

Many patients automatically assume that tooth extractions or wisdom teeth removal require a cold, unfamiliar surgical center. As a general practitioner with extensive advanced training, Dr. Lisa Piontek performs a wide spectrum of complex surgeries comfortably right here at 400 School St.

From simple therapeutic extractions to preparatory bone grafting and precise implant placement, we handle your workflow smoothly, combine it with tailored sedation protocols, and set realistic, transparent recovery maps.

Procedures Performed: Extractions, wisdom teeth, bone grafting, implants

Frequently Asked Periodontal Questions

Every surgical procedure is performed under deep, localized local anesthesia. You will experience a minor, dull pressure sensation as we work, but zero sharp pain. Expect minor, manageable soreness for 2–3 days post-visit.

Except for wisdom teeth or orthdontic alignment extractions, yes. Gaps cause adjacent teeth to shift, accelerate local bone loss, and compromise your bite metrics. We will discuss non-invasive implant or bridge options prior to surgery.

Simple routine extractions resolve within 1–3 days. Surgical or heavily impacted wisdom teeth extractions typically require a 3–7 day healing window before normal chew patterns can fully resume. Detailed aftercare items are provided.

Yes. We offer safe nitrous oxide inhalation or custom oral sedation scripts. We match your sedation method carefully to your general health history profiles and personal levels of dental anxiety.

Yes, the vast majority of PPO insurance frameworks categorize extractions and surgical procedures under basic or major necessity tiers, covering between 50% and 100% of simple extractions, and 50% to 80% of complex surgical cases.
