Expertise Across a Full Range of Oral & Maxillofacial Services
Wisdom Teeth
Wisdom teeth removal is one of the most common oral surgery procedures, often necessary due to overcrowding or pain. The average mouth is designed to hold 28 teeth, and when 32 attempt to emerge, discomfort and complications can occur. Removing wisdom teeth can help prevent future issues and improve long-term oral health.
At St. Luke’s OMS, experienced oral surgeons provide expert care for wisdom teeth extractions, ensuring a safe and comfortable experience. Elizabeth H. of Allentown was initially nervous about the procedure but recalls her experience positively.
“I was pretty apprehensive to have that done, but the doctors really assured me, and the staff was wonderful, super kind, and always welcoming,” she said. “They calmed my nerves, which made the procedure pretty easy.”
The wisdom teeth extraction process begins with a comprehensive evaluation to assess the position of the wisdom teeth, followed by a personalized treatment plan. In-office sedation is offered for added comfort, and minimally invasive techniques are used to support a smoother and faster recovery.
Dental Implants
St. Luke’s OMS specializes in dental implant surgery, offering permanent, natural-looking solutions for missing teeth or dental trauma. Using state-of-the-art technology, the skilled surgical team delivers durable results designed to function and feel like natural teeth.
Single-tooth implants replace individual missing teeth with secure crowns. Full arch dental implants provide a permanent, natural-looking set of teeth that restore your ability to eat, speak, and smile again with confidence. With as few as four strategically placed implants, surgeons can replace an entire arch of teeth—often in as little as 24 hours—with a solution that is more stable and comfortable than traditional dentures.
Dental implants help patients reclaim their smiles and confidence, allowing them to return to the activities they enjoy. Joe S. described the impact of his treatment simply and powerfully:
“I can laugh again, I speak with more confidence, and I can sing again. These are things I had given up on, but St. Luke’s OMS gave them back to me.”
Dental Trauma & Facial Injuries
The oral and maxillofacial surgeons at St. Luke’s OMS treat complex dental trauma and facial injuries. Using advanced surgical techniques, the team restores both function and appearance following injuries caused by accidents, sports incidents, or other trauma.
Facial trauma surgery may involve repairing fractures of the jaw, cheekbones, or eye sockets, as well as addressing dental alignment issues and soft tissue injuries. When trauma results in tooth loss, surgeons can incorporate dental implants into the recovery plan to restore both form and function.
High Quality, Personalized Care
Care at St. Luke’s OMS is supported by the strength and excellence of St. Luke’s University Health Network, recently ranked #1 in quality, safety, and patient experience by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services— ahead of nationally recognized institutions such as Houston Methodist and Mayo Clinic. This distinction, based on publicly reported government data, reflects the network’s commitment to exceptional patient care.
For our patients, that means personalized treatment plans backed by the resources, expertise, and coordinated care of a nationally recognized health system without losing the individual attention you deserve.
