William C. Storoe IV, DDS, PA

Most dental practices handle routine cleanings and fillings, but oral surgery occupies its own specialized niche—one where precision and advanced training make all the difference. Oral surgeons bridge the gap between dentistry and medicine, addressing complex issues like wisdom teeth removal, jaw realignment, and dental implant placement. These procedures often require deeper anesthesia expertise and surgical skill than general dentistry, which is why patients seeking extractions, bone grafting, or treatment for facial trauma typically turn to a dedicated oral and maxillofacial surgeon.

In Gainesville’s southwest quadrant near UF Health, this type of care is available at William C. Storoe IV, DDS, PA, situated at 3500 SW 2nd Ave STE 2. The practice’s location places it within easy reach of both the university district and the broader Alachua County area, making it a practical choice for students, faculty, and long-term residents alike. Oral surgery often feels daunting, but proximity to a trusted provider can simplify what might otherwise become a logistical hurdle—especially when recovering from procedures like impacted tooth removal or corrective jaw surgery.

The scope of oral surgery extends beyond extractions; it includes reconstructive work after injury, management of oral pathologies, and even sleep apnea interventions. While general dentists may refer patients out for these services, a dedicated oral surgeon’s office is equipped to handle the full spectrum—from initial consultation through post-operative follow-up. This continuity can be particularly valuable for cases involving multiple stages, such as implant-supported dentures or orthognathic surgery, where coordination between surgical and restorative phases is critical.

For those needing to schedule a consultation or discuss treatment options, the practice can be reached directly at (352) 371-4111. A map of the office location confirms its accessibility just off Archer Road, a major thoroughfare that connects downtown Gainesville to the city’s western suburbs.
