Top-Rated South Bend Oral Surgeons Office
Dr. Edward Collins, Dr. William Hull, and Dr. Mark Nizza are proud to be considered the best oral surgeons in South Bend, IN. With decades of experience, they deliver compassionate, personalized care to each patient who visits our practice.
Our doctors have spent years training in oral and maxillofacial surgery in hospitals, and they both hold board certifications from the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, as well as anesthesia.
As members of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS), Dr. Collins, Dr. Hull, and Dr. Nizza dedicate themselves to delivering outstanding care and staying current with the latest advances in oral surgery procedures and technology.
Together, they help patients overcome a wide variety of problems, such as impacted wisdom teeth, jaw and facial fractures, oral tumors, and nerve repositioning. Along with our specialized team, who are trained to assist with intravenous (IV) sedation and outpatient general anesthesia, they provide expert surgical care in our state-of-the-art oral surgery center.
Types of Surgery We Offer
If you need an oral surgeon in South Bend, we invite you to learn more about our services and request a consultation for any of the following treatments:
Bone Grafting
Missing teeth can weaken the structure of your jaw and wear down the bone. Our jaw grafting surgery can help restore lost volume and function to a jaw that has suffered from missing teeth. We offer both minor and major bone grafting surgery to help patients who have suffered from injury, or trauma, or those whose jaws are affected by congenital disabilities.
For major bone grafting treatments, our doctors operate in a hospital with the support of a complete surgical nursing staff.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Your wisdom teeth often need to be removed because they can shift the alignment of your teeth and jaw, causing pain. Some wisdom teeth never erupt and instead get trapped under the gum, which leads to a condition called impaction.
Wisdom tooth extraction can help prevent or resolve complications of wisdom teeth, including pain, infection, cyst growth, crowding, and damage to surrounding teeth.
Through digital X-rays, we can determine if you currently need a wisdom tooth extraction or if you would benefit from it in the future.
Tooth Extractions
Our specialized team is capable of handling all types of tooth extractions. If your dentist has referred you to an oral surgeon to extract your tooth, we can help. In addition to removing any teeth that pose a threat to your oral health, we can offer suggestions for replacement teeth, like dental implants, to preserve your jaw integrity.
Pre-Prosthetic Surgery
Prior to receiving dentures, some patients require oral surgery to ensure that their dentures will fit comfortably and not pose any risk of irritation to their gums or jaw. Dr. Collins, Dr. Hull or Dr. Nizza can help you identify the best pre-prosthetic procedures for your oral health, which may include reshaping or removing the excess bone that would negatively impact your dentures’ fit.
Bone Morphogenetic Protein
Patients who need bone for bone grafting can spare themselves the pain of donating from their hip by undergoing a bone morphogenetic protein procedure. During your jaw surgery, a sponge soaked in the protein is placed in the surgical site. Over the course of several months, it gradually dissolves as new bone grows in its place.
Platelet Rich Fibrin
We are one of the few practices in Indiana that offer platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) to help our patients heal faster. PRF uses your own blood to create a specialized byproduct that we apply to your surgical site. Because it is so rich in platelets, the body can accelerate the healing process, leading to faster recovery with fewer complications.
Maxillofacial Surgery South Bend, IN
Maxillofacial surgery helps patients recover from facial trauma and correct issues caused by congenital deformities. Surgeons who specialize in maxillofacial surgery spend six years specializing in facial surgery, and they are qualified to operate on all patients suffering from problems with their teeth, jaw, neck, or mouth.
Dr. Collins, Dr. Hull, and Dr. Nizza are experienced, skilled oral and maxillofacial surgeons who help patients with a variety of conditions, including oral cancer, craniofacial deformity, cancer of the head, neck, or mouth, and facial trauma. Our surgical procedures take place both in our cutting-edge oral surgery clinic and hospital operating rooms.
Dental Implants South Bend, IN
Dental implants restore functionality to patients who have lost teeth. They can also dramatically elevate your self-confidence if you have missing teeth and feel insecure about your smile.
While many patients love the aesthetic results of dental implants, we recognize the deeper importance they bring to each patient. Through dental implants, patients can restore their confidence and find greater ease in chewing, speaking, and swallowing.
Thanks to recent advances, our doctors are able to integrate single-stage implants in many patients. This technique eliminates the need for a second surgery, saving you time and money.
We can walk you through the entire dental implant process, including how our surgical services will be followed up by your restorative dentist’s work.
