Oral surgery refers to specialized procedures that treat conditions affecting the teeth, jaw, gums, or facial structures. Some methods are routine and preventative, such as wisdom teeth removal, while others support restorative or cosmetic goals, like placing a dental implant or preparing the jawbone for future treatment.
At Park Hill Dental, we’re committed to making oral surgery as smooth and comfortable as possible. We utilize modern techniques, local anesthetics, and a gentle approach to minimize discomfort and achieve optimal results. Every procedure begins with a thorough consultation, allowing you to understand your options and feel confident in your care.
Waking up exhausted, snoring loudly, or gasping for air during the night may seem like a minor inconvenience, but they could be signs of a much deeper issue: sleep apnea. Dr. Joshua Mijares of Park Hill Dental takes your sleep seriously because how you sleep affects how you live, and we’re here to help you reclaim both.
If you’ve been told you snore or stop breathing during the night (or you’re just tired of being tired), it’s time to talk to us. We offer gentle, customized sleep apnea treatments in Shavano Park designed to improve airflow, protect your health, and help you wake up feeling like yourself again.
Sleep apnea is a serious medical condition where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. The most common type of sleep apnea, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), occurs when the airway becomes blocked, typically due to the soft tissues in the back of the throat relaxing excessively.
This disruption not only fragments your sleep but also reduces oxygen to your brain and body. Left untreated, sleep apnea can contribute to high blood pressure, heart problems, memory issues, and even an increased risk of accidents due to fatigue. The good news is that sleep apnea is a treatable condition, and we help patients find relief through personalized care plans matched to their specific needs.
At Park Hill Dental, we offer a range of treatments tailored to your lifestyle and the severity of your symptoms. Each one is designed to restore safe breathing and better sleep.
