Dr. Glen E. Jones, DMD

Oral surgery often bridges the gap between routine dental care and specialized medical treatment, addressing everything from impacted wisdom teeth to corrective jaw procedures. While general dentists handle cleanings and fillings, oral surgeons step in for complex extractions, dental implant placement, and reconstructive work following trauma or disease. The distinction matters when recovery times, anesthesia requirements, or bone grafting enter the conversation—areas where a surgeon’s precision can make a measurable difference in outcomes.

Dr. Glen E. Jones, DMD practices at 168 14th St SW B, Largo, FL 33770, a stretch of Pinellas County where medical offices sit alongside quiet residential blocks. The area’s low-key commercial corridors mean less foot traffic but easier access for patients arriving by car. Oral surgery isn’t the kind of service people seek on impulse, so proximity to major roads—without the congestion of downtown—can simplify pre-op logistics. Whether the need is for third-molar removal, TMJ treatment, or preparatory work before dentures, the focus remains on procedures that demand both technical skill and a clear post-op plan.

Questions about sedation options or recovery timelines are best directed to the practice itself. Patients can reach the office at (727) 585-5494 for specifics on consultations or surgical protocols. For first-time visitors, mapping the route in advance helps: directions place the office just south of the intersection with 8th Avenue SW, where the speed limit drops and the street signs turn residential. This part of Largo moves at a slower pace—no tourist crowds, just the steady rhythm of a neighborhood where appointments are kept and follow-ups are scheduled without fanfare.
