Advanced & Surgical Care
Oral Surgery & Extractions in Punta Gorda, FL
From wisdom teeth to root canals and TMJ care, we handle the more complex work right here — with sedation options and a gentle touch, so you never have to face it alone.
What is advanced & surgical care?
Some dental problems go beyond a routine filling — an impacted wisdom tooth, a badly infected tooth, a painful jaw. Advanced and surgical care covers those more involved procedures, often in-house so you’re not sent across town.
Dr. Cabrera completed a hospital-based residency in advanced surgical procedures and IV sedation, so many treatments that other offices refer out can be done right here — comfortably.
