Our Oral Surgery Services
Dental Implants
Countless patients experience tooth loss, which can be accompanied by a loss of bone mass. Dental implants represent the gold standard for tooth replacement, as they not only restore your smile but they enable you to continue enjoying foods. Most importantly, dental implants can stimulate bone growth, preventing the reabsorption of your jawbone. Dental implants have a high rate of success and longevity with the right hygiene and oral care. About Implants
Wisdom Teeth
Most people’s wisdom teeth begin to erupt in their late teens or their early 20s. These teeth often lead to oral health complications, including crowding or persistent pain. Wisdom teeth can also become impacted, meaning they remain submerged below the gum tissue. Often, the best way to address wisdom teeth is to have them taken out. At our practice, we will keep you comfortable and out of pain as we quickly and safely extract your wisdom teeth, allowing you to avoid any long-term oral health complications. Third Molars
All-on-4® Dental Implants
Some patients come to Dr. Streelman suffering from extensive tooth loss or with the need to have many teeth extracted. Our practice can provide comprehensive oral restoration, often relying on an approach called All-on-4® dental implants. This dental implant method involves as little as four total implants strategically positioned to support full dental arches and assist in total mouth restoration. The All-on-4 treatment concept is popular because it allows patients to regain a confident and fully functional smile with minimal surgical time. Dr. Streelman is pleased to be an All-on-4 dental implant provider for patients near Issaquah, WA. All-on-4 Treatment
Bone Grafting
Some patients come to us experiencing inadequate bone mass, which can lead to a host of other dental problems. Dr. Streelman has ample experience in addressing this common issue using a procedure known as a bone graft. Bone grafting is also used to prepare the jaw for dental implants. About Grafting
Tooth Extractions
If a tooth risks the health of your smile and is too damaged or decayed to be treated, a tooth extraction could be the right treatment option. A tooth extraction will provide relief and protect your long-term health. Dr. Streelman will safely and comfortably remove the tooth, and he may be able to place a dental implant to replace the extracted tooth during the same procedure. About Extractions
Oral Pathology
When completing a thorough examination of your mouth, teeth, tongue, and gums, our providers can help identify a number of potential problems. From there, we can develop a treatment plan or, if necessary, recommend you to the necessary specialists. Some conditions that can be treated by an oral surgeon include mouth cancers, mouth ulcers, and other jaw problems. Pathology Exams
Facial Trauma Reconstruction
Nobody ever plans for a traumatic event to occur. It can happen, though, for a variety of reasons. At Mercer Island Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, we are always here to help patients recover from these traumatic incidents. Dr. Streelman will assess the damage using in-office imaging and physical exams. He will then formulate and recommend a treatment plan. Facial Trauma
Impacted Canines
Sometimes, during adolescence, the canine teeth do not erupt through the gums in the way they are supposed to and become submerged in the gum tissue, or impacted. Impacted canines are most often treated during the teenage years. No matter your age, however, if you are looking for impacted canine treatment near Redmond, WA, we invite you to contact our practice. About Eyeteeth
Anesthesia & Sedation Options
We offer general anesthesia and other forms of sedation. We understand that many of our patients have never had oral surgery before and are naturally anxious about the experience. Please rest assured that we do everything in our power to prioritize patient comfort while also ensuring patient safety. Dr. Streelman, provides several sedation options for our patients, allowing them to have their procedure completed in the most comfortable way possible. About Sedation
Corrective Jaw Surgery
There are several reasons why patients might need corrective jaw surgery. One reason, is that sometimes the jaw has become damaged due to a traumatic accident. In other instances, it is a defect present since birth. Still, other patients require corrective jaw surgery to alleviate the pain associated with TMJ disorders. No matter the cause of your problem, you will find friendly and knowledgeable care at Mercer Island Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. Our own Dr. Streelman has years of experience performing surgical procedures of many types, including jaw surgeries that can restore comfort and function.
