Oral Surgery Cleft Palate Success

Oral Surgery Cleft Palate Success

Though many people only have experience with oral surgery during their teenage years for wisdom tooth extraction or later in life with dental implant surgery, Hornbeck graduate Melissa Brown has been a regular oral surgery patient since she was a baby. Born with a cleft palate, fused upper vertebrae, and smaller-than-normal lower jaw, Melissa was introduced immediately to oral surgery to close her cleft palate. Nineteen surgeries and 18 years later, Melissa has grown past the days of difficult breathing and not being able to bite through sandwiches because of misaligned teeth and is on her way to studying biology at university.

I would highly recommend Dr. Martin if you need an Oral Surgeon. ESPECIALLY if you are dental phobic like me. If I felt comfortable and cared for, as petrified as I am about dentists, that says A LOT! You can trust them, they are seriously AWSOME!

I went to Dr.Martin a couple years ago to get my wisdom teeth taken out, since then I have referred three of my friends and they were also very happy with his work. The staff and himself were so nice and friendly, made each of us feel comfortable and relaxed.
