Dear Patient(s):

Our community has been through a lot over the last few months, and all of us are looking forward to resuming our normal habits and routines. We are so very excited to announce that we are once again able to provide dental services for you, our valuable patients. Highland Advanced Dental Care will reopen on June 1st. While many things have changed, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your safety.

Infection control has always been a top priority for our practice and you may have seen this during your visits to our office. Our infection control processes are made so that when you receive care, it’s both safe and comfortable. We want to tell you about the infection control procedures we follow in our practice to keep patients and staff safe.

Our office follows infection control recommendations made by the American Dental Association (ADA), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). We follow the activities of these agencies so that we are up-to-date on any new rulings or guidance that may be issued. We do this to make sure that our infection control procedures are current and adhere to each agency’s recommendations.

You may see some changes when it is time for your next appointment. We made these changes to help protect our patients and staff. For example:

  • Our office will communicate with you beforehand to ask some screening questions. You’ll be asked those same questions again when you are in the office.
  • We have hand sanitizer that we will ask you to use when you enter the office. You will also find some in the reception area and other places in the office for you to use as needed.
  • You may see that our waiting room will no longer offer magazines, children’s toys and so forth, since those items are difficult to clean and disinfect.
  • Appointments will be managed to allow for social distancing between patients. That might mean
  • that you’re offered fewer options for scheduling your appointment.
  • We will do our best to allow greater time between patients to reduce waiting times for you, as well as to reduce the number of patients in the reception area at any one time.

We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have about the steps we take to keep you, and every patient, safe in our practice.

Thank you for being our patient. We value your trust and loyalty and look forward to welcoming back our patients, neighbors and friends.

As always, if you have any questions, please call our office at 248-329-3552.

Sincerely,

Dr. James E. LoCascio, DDS FICOI D-ABDSM
Highland Advanced Dental Care

 

Experience Comfortable Oral Surgery in Highland, MI

Sometimes all you need is a little help to keep your teeth healthy and beautiful. When general dentistry isn’t enough, oral surgery in Highland may be required. Dr. LoCascio of Highland Advanced Dental Care has a variety of procedures he can expertly use to get your smile back on track.

Below are just a few of the many benefits of having your oral surgery procedure performed in our dentist office:

  • Restore your oral health and prevent future dental problems
  • Make eating easier so you can enjoy your favorite foods again
  • Boost your self-esteem when you see a beautiful smile in the mirror

Call us today if your mouth needs a little TLC: 248-329-3552. We’re open as late as 8 p.m. on Tuesdays. Your capable dentist has decades of surgical experience and will put things back in order.

Keep Smiling With a Wide Selection of Surgical Procedures

We don’t just offer one or two oral surgery services for our patients. We have you covered – whatever your smile requires. Our services include:

  • Dental Implants – To make your smile healthy and attractive again, Dr. LoCascio can insert titanium implants in your jawbone, providing a base for many restoration options.
  • All-on-4® Implants – With this procedure, your dentist can give you a full arch of beautiful, fixed replacement teeth using only four sturdy implants. Best of all, you can walk out the same day with fully functional temporaries until your permanent restoration is ready.
  • Tooth Extractions – We will always try to save your teeth if possible. However, sometimes we find a tooth so badly diseased or damaged that extraction is necessary to protect the health of your other teeth and mouth.
  • Gum Recession Surgery – The Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique involves making a small pinhole in the area where your gums have receded. Dr. LoCascio will then gently expand the gum tissue to cover more of the teeth. He doesn’t have to use a scalpel or sutures, so your recovery time will be minimal.

Relax With Sedation During Your Dental Surgery

If you’re nervous about your surgery, we offer safe inhalation sedation to calm your nerves. It will help you relax and may even make you feel euphoric, but the effects will go away quickly after your procedure. Along with our painless numbing process, comforting staff, and technology like 3D imaging, sedation ensures your visit with us will go smooth as silk!

Don’t risk your smile any longer. Call us at 248-329-3552 to schedule your consultation for oral surgery in Highland. You can also use our convenient online form.

Common Questions About Oral Surgery

A common reason we perform oral surgery is to extract a tooth that is too damaged to save or is causing dental problems. We also remove teeth for dentures or other restorations. In addition, Dr. LoCascio can place dental implants in your jaw to replace missing teeth. He also repairs receding gums with a procedure called the Chao Pinhole® Surgical Technique, a less invasive alternative to a gum graft.

Medical insurance often covers oral surgery that is considered medically necessary. Diagnostic services such as X-rays may also be covered. We can help you determine which services may be covered by your insurance plan. If you don’t have insurance, your options for financing oral surgery include CareCredit financing.

It’s a good idea to stick to soft foods and liquids for two or three days after your dental surgery. Avoid temperature extremes and spicy foods. Good choices include soup, yogurt, protein shakes, and pudding. For a few weeks, you’ll want to avoid foods with seeds, foods that are tough to chew, acidic foods and beverages, and spicy foods.
