Oral & Maxillofacial Services

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is a specialty of dentistry which includes the diagnosis, surgical and adjunctive treatment of diseases, injuries and defects involving both the functional and esthetic aspects of both the hard and soft tissues of the oral and facial regions. This simply means we are involved in the evaluation and treatment of problems that occur in the mouth and with the face. With more than 6 years of additional hospital based surgical and anesthesia residency training after medical school, Dr. Williams practices a full scope of oral and maxillofacial surgery.
