Safe, Effective Oral Surgery at Lovett Dental Humble

professionals performing oral surgeryOral surgery is performed by a licensed and trained oral and maxillofacial surgeon. To become this type of surgeon, a person must complete four years of dental school and then graduate. After doing so, there are years spent working in a hospital-based residency program to gain hands-on experience. These professionals train right alongside those in general surgery, anesthesia, and internal medicine. These professionals then spend time in areas such as emergency medicine, plastic surgery, and ear, nose, and throat. At Lovett Dental Humble, our dentists maintain the proper licensing and association recognition to provide oral surgery to our clients.
