About Arizona Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons

Based on East Tanque Verde Road in the Tanque Verde Place area of Tucson, Arizona, Arizona Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons is a dental practice serving the area. Wisdom teeth are removed when they are impacted, repeatedly infected, decayed, or damaging the tooth in front, since they arrive last and often into a jaw with no room left. Not every wisdom tooth needs to come out — one that erupts cleanly and can be kept clean is often left alone.

Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.

Routine attendance, roughly every six months for most people, is what actually keeps small problems small. A lot of decay and gum disease develops without any pain in its early stages, which is why regular checkups matter even when nothing seems to be wrong, rather than only booking an appointment once something hurts.

A first appointment at a new practice typically covers a full examination, a review of your dental and medical history, and a professional cleaning, with X-rays if you do not have recent ones. It is also a reasonable time to raise any longer-term concerns, cosmetic or otherwise, so they can be factored into a plan going forward.

Day-to-day oral health still comes down to the basics between visits — brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, cleaning between the teeth, and limiting how often sugary food and drink appear through the day matters more than the total amount eaten at once. Regular professional care is what catches whatever those habits do not.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is Arizona Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons located in Tucson?

What services does Arizona Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons offer?
Listed services at Arizona Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons include Wisdom Teeth Removal. The full list is shown on this page.
What age is best to have wisdom teeth taken out?
Late teens to early twenties is often easier, because the roots are less fully formed and bone is more forgiving, so healing tends to be quicker. Removal is still routinely done later when there is a reason for it.
Why do wisdom teeth cause problems?
They arrive last, often into a jaw with no room left, so they become impacted or come through at an angle. Partly erupted wisdom teeth are also very difficult to clean, which is why they are prone to repeated infection and decay.
How often should I have a dental check-up?
Every six months suits most people. If you have gum disease or a history of decay a dentist may suggest coming more often. The point of regular visits is mostly to catch problems while they are still small and cheap to treat.

The best care for customers. The staff are all excellent and really care about you as a person. The ONLY disappointment was learning they just started (on 10/29/26) charging 3% surcharge if using a credit card to pay - no surcharge for cash or debit card.

Dr. Wood performed my wisdom Teeth removal surgery. He and Denelle have been so kind and helpful during this process. I’ve had to call and email and come in due to a dry socket and they have taken care of me with zero judgment and answered all questions, even on a weekend! I know I can contact them with any issues and I will be met with kindness and compassion.

From the moment I walked in, I had an amazing experience. The office was exceptionally clean, organized, and had such a professional atmosphere, which immediately helped put me at ease. I have pretty severe dental anxiety, but everyone was so patient, kind, and understanding throughout the entire process. Dr. Mihalich was absolutely amazing and took the time to make sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better wisdom teeth removal experience. A huge thank you to Denelle, Megan, Jessica D, Dylan, Jannette, and Sam for their kindness, professionalism, and for helping make everything go so smoothly—including Sam for approving me to come in. Every member of the team made me feel cared for and supported. If you’re looking for an oral surgery office that is clean, professional, and genuinely cares about its patients, I can’t recommend this team enough. Thank you all for turning what I expected to be a stressful experience into such a positive one!

I was very impressed with this practice. Used it for wisdom teeth removal. Dr. Woods was amazing. He probably explains the same thing multiple times a day to his patients but yet took the time to patiently answer all my questions. Highly recommend ! Staff was nice and checked on their patients the next day!

My experience at AZOMS was outstanding! Dr. R. Lifferth and his team performed an urgent extraction and implant in no time by fitting me in quickly and efficiently. They numbed my gums sufficiently and gave me laughing gas to alleviate my anxiety. They answered all my questions. They are an A++ team. I highly recommend this professional team!
