Dr. James Gift

Oral surgery often involves more than extractions—it can include reconstructive procedures, corrective jaw surgery, and treatment for facial trauma. Dr. James Gift specializes in this field, addressing both routine and complex cases that general dentists typically refer out. The practice handles everything from wisdom tooth removal to dental implant placement, as well as biopsies and TMJ disorder interventions. These services sit at the intersection of medicine and dentistry, requiring precision that extends beyond standard dental care.

On North Dale Mabry Highway, just past the intersection with Waters Avenue, the office is positioned among a mix of medical facilities and retail strips. The stretch of road is one of Tampa’s busier corridors, lined with chain restaurants and professional plazas that serve both local residents and those coming in from Carrollwood or Lutz. Parking here follows the usual commercial layout of the area, with shared lots and street-facing spaces that fill up during peak hours. For anyone mapping out a visit, the exact location is 8001 N Dale Mabry Hwy Tampa, FL 33614.

Scheduling a consultation or follow-up is done directly through the practice, with calls routed to (813) 931-0700. First-time patients might want to check the map beforehand to confirm traffic patterns, especially if arriving during the afternoon rush. Oral surgery appointments often require pre-operative instructions, so leaving extra time for paperwork or pre-procedure questions is standard procedure.
