We Provide High-Quality Oral Surgery, Catered to Your Needs
Oral surgery in Monument, CO, includes several surgical dental treatments. The goal of oral surgery is to improve the function, health, and appearance of your smile and the surrounding structures, such as your jaw. In many cases, we strive to provide the most conservative treatment possible. However, oral surgery may be necessary to correct certain conditions and improve your oral and overall health.
While we offer a range of oral surgery treatments, we also collaborate closely with other dental professionals to ensure that you receive the high-quality results you deserve. Our dentist will carefully evaluate your smile and needs to determine whether oral surgery is the best available treatment choice for you.

Our Advanced Oral Surgery Procedures In Monument, CO
Tooth Extractions
Tooth extractions, a routine oral surgery procedure, are performed right in our office. Our team will gently remove the tooth during the tooth extraction procedure, minimizing disturbance to the surrounding bone and gum tissue. With our expertise and precision techniques, we strive to make the tooth extraction process as efficient and comfortable as possible.
We apply ozone therapy to the socket before and after removal to eliminate bacteria, reduce inflammation, and support proper healing. We also pay careful attention to complete socket debridement and clot preservation, because improper extraction healing can lead to cavitations, areas of poorly healed bone that become a hidden source of chronic infection and systemic inflammation for years to come.
Wisdom Teeth Extractions
Wisdom teeth extraction in Monument, CO, is a standard procedure to remove one or more of the third molars at the back of your mouth. These teeth often cause pain, infection, or alignment problems because they lack sufficient space to grow properly. These extractions are typically performed under local or general anesthesia, ensuring minimal discomfort. Patients may experience swelling and mild discomfort after surgery, but recovery typically occurs within a few days to a week.
At Mountain Wellness Dentistry, wisdom tooth extractions are performed with a biological approach to healing, incorporating ozone therapy to sterilize the site, minimize post-operative infection risk, and support faster, more comfortable recovery without routine antibiotic use. We also provide detailed post-operative guidance on nutrition and home care to actively support your body’s natural healing response.
Bone Grafting
A bone graft may be required when the jawbone lacks sufficient density or volume to support a dental implant or other restoration. During a bone graft, donor bone material is placed at the site to stimulate new bone growth and create a stronger, more stable foundation for your restoration.
Where possible, we prefer autogenous bone, taken from your own body, as it carries the lowest risk of immune reaction and the highest rate of successful integration. When donor material is used, we select only rigorously screened, biocompatible options and discuss the choices with you transparently so you can make a fully informed decision. We also incorporate ozone therapy at the graft site to sterilize the area, reduce inflammation, and support optimal bone healing and integration.
Dental Implant Surgery
Dental implants provide a long-lasting, solution for replacing missing teeth. Our holistic approach using zirconia implants are metal-free and biocompatible, consisting of an implant post, abutment, and restoration. The zirconia post is placed into the jawbone to create a strong, stable foundation for a replacement tooth while supporting healthy gums, bone, and overall oral balance.
Dentoalveolar Surgery
Dentoalveolar surgery is any type of oral surgery that involves treating the teeth and soft tissues of the mouth. Common dentoalveolar surgical procedures include tooth extractions, removal of wisdom teeth, exposure of impacted teeth, and soft tissue grafting.
