Oral surgery requires specialized experience and skills. When choosing a dentist to perform a tooth extraction, gum graft, or dental implant procedure, you want someone with those qualifications and more. He should understand your concerns and be willing to explain procedures so you’re comfortable with the process. For 30 years, Dr. Michael Curtis has been performing oral surgeries with just such expertise and care.

Dr. Curtis completed two postgraduate residencies at Albert Einstein Medical Center and at Montifiore Medical Center in New York, where he specialized in oral surgery. Now, Bridgeport and Trumbull area patients benefit from his proficiency and personal attention when undergoing oral surgery procedures.

Services include:

• Tooth extractions due to large cavities or abscesses
• Treatment for dental emergencies
• Sedation dentistry for optimal patient comfort during procedures
• Tissue grafting for patients with gum disease
• Reshaping gum tissues with Electrosurgery
• Wisdom teeth removal
• Biopses
• Dental implant placement

Patients who are apprehensive about their procedure or need longer procedures have access to oral conscious sedation. With this type of sedation, Dr. Curtis will prescribe a safe and effective sedative pill that to take before your dental appointment. By the time you arrive at the office for your visit, you will be totally relaxed and at ease. Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and IV sedation are also available.

If you need oral surgery, gum surgery, sedation, or comprehensive dental care, call Dr. Curtis’ Bridgeport dental office. Located two blocks from the Trumbull mall in Commerce Park, his practice is convenient for Connecticut residents of Bridgeport, Trumbull, Fairfield, Stratford, and surrounding areas.
