Dental Examination
When you come in for your oral exam with Dr. Herrera, he may take x-rays of your mouth and evaluate the position of the wisdom teeth to determine if you might encounter any problems in the future. Early evaluation and treatment is essential for achieving superior results, and may prevent a number of orthodontic problems down the road. Dr. Herrera may include tooth extractions as part of your treatment plan.
X-rays
Oral Cancer Screening
Oral cancer screenings involve the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the mouth such as cysts, tumors, and precancerous and cancerous lesions. Many patients experience unusual changes in the mouth, teeth, gums, tongue, or throat that may be caused by disease. Diagnosing diseases in the mouth as early as possible is very important. The earlier a disease is diagnosed, the faster treatment and healing can begin.

Teeth Cleaning
Dr. Herrera may recommend a Nobel BioCare dental implant to replace a single missing tooth. The post of the implant functions just like the root of the tooth, while the dental crown looks and feels like your natural tooth. Implants typically require no additional maintenance beyond normal, routine homecare and regular dental cleaning visits.

Crowns
Dr. Herrera may recommend a dental bridge with implants to fix missing teeth. A three or more unit bridge can work to replace missing teeth when anchored by implants. The crown portions of this option appear to rise from the gum tissues, giving a natural appearance and feel to the bridge. In this procedure, dental implants are strategically placed to anchor the dental bridge when a span of missing teeth is present.

Dentures
If you have lost a tooth or have several missing teeth in Salinas and Watsonville, CA, you may be feeling overwhelmed by the amount of choices that you have for restoring your beautiful smile. Dr. Andres F. Herrera, an oral surgeon, may recommend dental implants for missing teeth as opposed to traditional forms of tooth replacement, such as dentures or bridges. Dental implants are considered to be the most favored and long lasting solution for replacing missing teeth.

Dental Implants
Single and Multiple Missing Teeth - Watsonville, CA If you have one or multiple missing teeth, talk with Dr Herrera about dental implants and the right dental rehabilitation solution for your case.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Distraction Osteogenesis - Freedom, CA Distraction osteogenesis is the process of moving two segments of bone slowly apart so that new bone grows to fill the resulting gap. The procedure is used in oral surgery to treat defects of the oral and facial region, most notably the slow growth of the upper two thirds of the face called midface hypoplasia.
Jaw Surgery
Corrective Jaw Surgery - Salinas, CA Our office performs orthognathic surgery, commonly called corrective jaw surgery. Corrective jaw surgery is used to correct a variety of minor and major skeletal irregularities including the misalignment of jaws and teeth. As a result of the surgery, many patient’s appearance is dramatically enhanced and their jaw function is restored.
Gum Surgery
• Periodontal Disease - If you have gum disease, we must treat it with scaling and root planing or with laser gum surgery before placing implants. While this cost is not typically associated with implants, it will affect your overall treatment cost if you are in need of these procedures.
Maxillofacial Surgery
My name is Dr. Andrés F. Herrera. I was born and raised in Colombia. I’m a Board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon who received my Doctorate in Dental Surgery degree from the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana in 1994. I completed a six year Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery residency at Loyola University Medical Center in Chicago, IL. After completing my residency in 2003, I joined Loyola’s staff as an Assistant Professor of Surgery until December of 2005. I was pleased for the opportunity to join a world class organization focused on research, education and patient care. I am a diplomate of the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and a diplomate of the American Association of Dental Anesthesiology. My hobbies include painting and dining.
Tooth Extractions
Tooth Extractions - Watsonville CA Tooth extractions are performed for a variety of reasons including tooth decay, injury, and for orthodontic treatment. Tooth extractions are a relatively common procedure in most dental offices. The difficulty of the procedure varies depending on the case and the patient, however anesthesia is used to numb the area and prevent pain during the procedure.
Bone Grafting
• It is Easy to Use. PRGF is easy to handle and makes applying bone substitute materials and bone grafting products easier to manipulate.

Orthodontics
After Underbite Correction Surgery Patients who are struggling daily with health complications that stem from a poorly aligned bite are ideal candidates for orthognathic surgery. Your doctor will work with you to determine if your overall and oral health meet the needs of corrective jaw surgery. Your surgical treatment may require additional treatments including orthodontics and may take several years to complete.
Braces
How does it work? During the procedure, the doctor will make a break in an abnormal bone. A device called a distractor is then attached to both sides of the break. Over a period of days or weeks, the distractor is adjusted to stretch the break so that new bone tissue will grow to fill it. The distractor can be adjusted from home by a parent or guardian. The process is so slow that the child will not usually feel much discomfort. Many older children compare any discomfort to wearing braces or other orthodontic devices.
