About Central Florida Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
Central Florida Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery operates on North Alafaya Trail in Orlando, Florida. Implants are considered by many dentists the most durable way to replace a missing tooth, since the titanium post fuses with the jaw bone over several months and then supports a crown that functions much like a natural tooth. Enough healthy bone is the main prerequisite, and a graft can build that up first if needed.
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.
Oral surgery covers procedures beyond routine treatment — surgical extractions including impacted wisdom teeth, implant placement, and bone grafting among the more common ones. The distinguishing feature is generally that tissue is opened and closed as part of the procedure, rather than treated at the surface.
Bone grafting rebuilds jaw bone that has shrunk after a tooth has been missing for a while, most often as preparation for a dental implant that needs sufficient volume to anchor into. Healing generally takes several months before further treatment can proceed.
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.
Digital X-rays are a routine part of dental care because they show what a visual exam alone cannot — decay forming between teeth, bone loss below the gumline, and how developing adult teeth are positioned in children. They use a low radiation dose and are taken on a schedule matched to individual risk rather than at every single visit.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Bower and his team. From the initial consultation through recovery, the entire experience exceeded my expectations. Dr. Bower has one of the best bedside manners of any healthcare provider I’ve ever encountered. He is incredibly kind, patient, and takes the time to truly connect with his patients. During my consultation, I never felt rushed, and it was clear that he genuinely cared about me as a person, not just another patient. What impressed me most was his professionalism and clinical judgment. He knew going into surgery that one of my teeth was severely impacted, but once he was able to fully evaluate the situation during the procedure, he made the decision that a partial removal was the safest course of action rather than risking nerve damage. That level of experience, judgment, and commitment to patient safety gave me complete confidence that my well-being was always the priority. I also want to recognize his nurse, who was absolutely wonderful. She was knowledgeable, professional, compassionate, and incredibly comforting throughout the entire process. Her calm and caring demeanor made a huge difference. Recovery after pulling 4 teeth all at once was a breeze, and everything went exactly as explained. The entire team made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable. If I ever need oral surgery again, Dr. Bower will be my first choice without hesitation. Thank you for providing such exceptional care. — Your Costa Rican patient 😊
There’s not much I can say here that hasn’t been said, but my experience with Dr. Bower and his team was equally phenomenal to that described in the other reviews. I had all 4 wisdom teeth removed with local anesthesia, and Dr. Bower’s communication and care during the procedure went a looong way towards keeping me relaxed and trusting of the process. In fact, I think I’d like to do the whole thing again!! Not really—but if I did, I would without a doubt be coming back to Dr. Bower. Thank you all so much for the fantastic experience; the recovery has been smoother than I ever expected. I would give five THOUSAND stars if I could. Unfortunately, Google is suppressing my enthusiasm. Okay that’s enough. Thanks Dr. Bower!!! And thank you to the rest of the team!!
Dr Bower is absolutely amazing-great communicator, makes you feel comfortable-extremely knowledgeable and professional!! So kind and thoughtful. Tells you everything step by step. Had implant-its perfect.
Absolutely wonderful office, staff and we love Dr.Bower so much! What a great doc with an amazing personality that made our kid feel at ease’s he takes his time and we wish every doc was like him!
I had to have a tooth extracted and Dr Bowers and his associates made the experience amazing. He put me at ease and ensured me that, even with only using local numbing, that no pain would be felt. Even at the beginning of the procedure he went back and re-numbed the area just to ease my mind. While getting a tooth pulled is by no means pleasant, they made the experience about as good as I could've hoped for. Zero pain, polite and kind, and quick. Thanks!
Dr Bower is absolutely amazing! I needed plates and screws removed from a prior surgery that was 15 years ago. The titanium was degrading and affecting my health. Dr Bower was the only doctor that actually listened to me, gave me full informed consent about the surgery, and was very empathetic. After surgery my health improved dramatically. I can’t thank him enough.
