Oral Surgeon - LONG BEACH, CA

An oral surgeon is a dental specialist. All dentists, whether they are generalists or specialists, spend upwards of eight years in college and dental college earning a DDS (Doctor of Dental Surgery) or DMD (Doctor of Dental Medicine). An oral surgeon, though, spends an additional four to six years of in training after dental school, mostly in a hospital-based surgical environment. Oral surgeons have specific training in implant surgery and anesthesia, but they also have medical training. That means Dr. Silegy and team welcomes even those with pre-existing medical conditions and those in need of complex care that many dentists turn away.
