Dr. John R. Mascaro DMD MD, Dr. Carl R. Choi DDS MD

Oral surgery isn’t the kind of thing most people plan for—it’s usually a referral, a sudden need, or the last step after years of dental work. In Willoughby, Dr. John R. Mascaro DMD MD and Dr. Carl R. Choi DDS MD handle the procedures that general dentists don’t, from impacted wisdom teeth to corrective jaw surgery. Their practice sits at 4230 OH-306 #350, a stretch of Route 306 where medical offices cluster near the edges of residential pockets. Questions about extractions, implants, or pre-surgical consultations? The direct line is (440) 946-2247.

The area around Willoughby Hills has long been a draw for specialists, given its proximity to both Cleveland’s hospital corridor and Lake County’s sprawl. This isn’t a walk-in clinic or a spa-like dental office—it’s a surgical practice, which means the focus stays on procedures like bone grafting, cyst removal, and trauma repair. If you’re mapping out the visit, the directions place it just north of the Chardon Road intersection, where the road widens and the signage is clear. No frills, just the next step when a standard dental visit won’t cut it.
