Oral surgery covers a lot more than just wisdom teeth—it’s the specialty that handles everything from jaw realignment to complex extractions and dental implants. When general dentistry isn’t enough, patients often need a surgeon who bridges medical and dental expertise. That’s where a dual-degree practitioner comes in, offering care that spans both fields without the need for referrals to multiple offices.

In San Jose’s Willow Glen neighborhood, you’ll find an oral surgery practice at 1660 Willow St #5, tucked between Lincoln Avenue’s cafés and the quiet residential streets that define the area. The location makes it convenient for those coming from downtown or the nearby Rose Garden district, though the office itself keeps a low profile—no flashy signage, just a standard suite in a professional building.

Procedures here run the gamut: impacted canines, corrective jaw surgery, bone grafting for implants, and the ever-common wisdom tooth removal. Some oral surgeons also manage facial trauma or reconstructive work, though specifics depend on the practice’s scope. If you’re coordinating with an orthodontist or dentist, having a surgeon in the same city simplifies logistics—no cross-town treks for follow-ups.

Questions about recovery timelines or insurance coordination? The direct line is (408) 265-7530, and the office’s map listing includes the suite number for first-time visitors. Willow Glen’s mix of historic charm and modern convenience means you’re as likely to grab a post-op smoothie at Willow Street Pizza as you are to spot a mid-century home on the drive over—practicality with a side of local flavor.
