Our own Dr. Edward Strauss breaks down oral surgery on Live 5 News. He explained the most common procedures, such as general extractions, wisdom teeth extractions, dental implants, facial trauma and facial aesthetics. Dr. Strauss also explains that in addition to receiving a Doctorate of Dental Medicine, oral surgeons also complete a four-to-six year residency program focused on oral and maxillofacial surgery. The Surgeons at Charleston Oral and Facial Surgery stand behind their work, and guarantee dental implants for life.
