Oral Surgery
In some cases, we refer patients to a specialist for oral surgery. However, general dentists are trained to perform some minor oral surgeries, and Dr. Shapiro has also taken significant postgraduate courses for various procedures. So that you can receive the majority of your dental care in our Charlotte dental office, where you feel comfortable, cared for, and familiar, we offer some minor oral surgeries and endodontics. These may include:
- Extractions to Eliminate Crowding
- Extractions of Wisdom Teeth (Third Molars)
- Extractions of Dead Teeth
- Root Canal Therapy
- Soft Tissue Grafts
- Crown Lengthening
- Gingivectomies or Gum Lifts
- Biopsies
- Dental Implant Placement
If we believe that you would be better served by a specialist, we'll refer you to a trusted colleague. Should you have questions or concerns about any dental procedure that we recommend, please ask. Our team is always available to share information and educational materials. The more you understand about your dental treatment plan, the wiser your decisions.
Experience whole-mouth health and a lifetime of beautiful smiles. Call today to schedule your appointment with Dr. Shapiro. Our Charlotte dental office serves Lake Norman, Concord, Pineville, Matthews, and surrounding areas.
