A supportive team and a patient-first environment

Our highly trained team has been the heartbeat of the practice for decades, with many staff members working here for more than 10—and even 20—years. Every surgical assistant is certified in BLS and ACLS, and regularly trained in emergency protocols to ensure top-tier patient safety. We believe that unmatched clinical care starts with seamless teamwork and clear communication—not only within our team but also with referring doctors and restorative providers.

What makes our office different? We do one thing exceptionally well: oral surgery. And we do it with integrity, clarity, and professionalism. Our clean and recently updated medical setting reflects our commitment to high standards, and our coffee station offers just a small comfort while you’re in our care.

Advanced solutions in oral surgery and dental implants

At Peninsula Oral Surgery and Implants, we specialize in dental implants, full-arch solutions like All-on-X, wisdom tooth extractions, IV sedation, and complex surgical procedures such as bone grafts and sinus lifts. We place over 500 implants each year, with a goal to serve even more patients through precision-guided, digitally enhanced treatments. From custom surgical guides to digital impressions and anatomic healing abutments, we use state-of-the-art tools to improve outcomes and patient satisfaction.

Whether you’re missing one tooth or require full-arch rehabilitation, we prioritize personalized treatment plans over one-size-fits-all solutions. Our surgeons take the time to understand your health needs, personal goals, and long-term outlook before recommending any treatment, ensuring you feel cared for, not processed through a system.
