At Goodove Oral Surgery & Dental Implants, we have proudly served the Hampton Roads community for over 20 years as an independent, locally rooted practice. Norfolk is part of the full list of Hampton Roads areas we serve. We are an independent, community-focused practice by choice, so we can focus on what matters most: building lasting relationships with our patients and their families. Norfolk residents seeking expert oral surgery procedures will find experienced, board-qualified surgeons and a team that goes out of its way to make sure that every visit is as comfortable as possible.
Oral and maxillofacial surgeons complete years of additional hospital-based training after dental school, qualifying them to perform complex procedures that go beyond the scope of general dentistry. This includes removing impacted wisdom teeth, placing dental implants, performing bone grafts, treating facial trauma, and diagnosing oral pathology. The depth of that training matters tremendously when the stakes are high.
At Goodove Oral Surgery, our surgeons hold hospital privileges at Virginia Beach Ambulatory Surgery Center, Bon Secours Maryview Medical Center, and Children’s Hospital of The King’s Daughters. That level of credentialing reflects the rigorous standards we uphold every day in our practice. For patients with complex medical histories or those requiring anesthesia for extensive procedures, access to a hospital-based surgical environment provides an added layer of safety and peace of mind.
Norfolk patients who come to us have access to a full range of oral and maxillofacial surgical services. Here is a look at the procedures we perform most frequently:
Each of these procedures requires the precision and clinical depth that only a trained oral and maxillofacial surgeon can provide.
Among the services we offer, dental implants remain one of the most transformative. Implants replace missing teeth at the root level, preserving the jawbone and restoring full chewing function in a way that can’t happen through dentures or bridges. The American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons notes that dental implants are among the most predictable tooth replacement options available, with long-term success rates that make them a trusted solution for patients of all ages.
For those who have experienced significant bone loss, we provide bone grafting as a preparatory step before implant placement. This process restores the volume and density needed to support a stable, lasting implant. Our surgeons use cone beam CT imaging to plan each case with surgical precision before a single incision is made.
Impacted wisdom teeth are among the most common reasons patients seek oral surgery. When a third molar cannot fully erupt, it can press against neighboring teeth, cause infection, or damage surrounding bone. Leaving an impacted tooth untreated rarely improves the situation, and in many cases, the longer a patient waits, the more involved the removal becomes.
We offer wisdom tooth removal with sedation options ranging from nitrous oxide to IV anesthesia, so patients can choose the level of comfort that works best for them. Our surgical team monitors every patient closely throughout the procedure and provides thorough post-operative care instructions to support a smooth recovery.
When Norfolk residents need oral surgery, they have many options to consider. However, what sets us apart is not just our surgical credentials but the way we approach every patient relationship. We are an independent practice, and that independence means we have the flexibility to make decisions based on what is best for each patient and family. Our surgeons take the time to explain treatment options clearly, answer questions honestly, and build the kind of trust that brings patients back and inspires them to refer their families and friends who need oral surgery.
You can meet our doctors to learn more about the surgeons who will be caring for you before you ever walk through our doors. We also welcome referrals from general dentists throughout the region and work closely with referring providers to ensure coordinated, seamless care.
