7 years ago today, Doc. I ruined a hunting trip for you, and in return you gave me my face back! :) I'm forever grateful for the work you did that day, and continued to do throughout the following years for me. Some debts we can repay. This may be one I can never. Thank you to you and your amazing staff.

How Dental Treatment Can Improve Your Smile
Types of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Because oral and facial trauma can vary so much from patient to patient, every treatment plan is unique. Whether Dr. Anderson recommends dental implants or corrective jaw surgery will depend completely upon your needs. After examining you and reviewing your medical history during an initial consultation, he can make a recommendation as to which procedures are best suited to your situation. These may include:
- Dental implants
- TMJ treatment
- Wisdom tooth removal
- Bone graft
- Corrective jaw surgery
- Cleft lip and palate surgery
- Frenectomy
- Gingivectomy
- Preprosthetic surgery
- Ridge augmentation
- Sinus lift
- Tooth extraction
What to Expect from Your Results
The ultimate goal for a maxillofacial surgeon is to repair any damage done and restore function to your smile. What those results will look like depends on the patient's needs and the treatments in question. While frenectomy or extraction will have immediate results, placing dental implants or completing corrective jaw surgery requires months of recovery before your body adjusts.
Dr. Anderson will lay out a comprehensive timeline for your treatment during your initial consultation at his practice in Logan, UT.

But can I afford surgery to correct my injury?
Cost of Facial Trauma Treatment & How You Can Afford It
Type of Surgery
The type of surgery you will require depends on your injuries and how severe they are. The complexity of your injury, the area of treatment, and intricacy required all contribute to the total cost of your treatment.
Number of Procedures Required
Your case may require several procedures and even multiple specialists to restore proper function and aesthetics. This can significantly impact your overall cost of treatment.
Elective vs. Emergency Medical Care
Depending on the cause or severity of your injury, you may require emergency care. As opposed to those who delay care or seek treatment electively, there are typically higher costs associated with urgent or emergency department services.
To help you afford the treatment you need, Dr. Anderson strives to keep costs low. He also accepts CareCredit® financing and offers generous payment plans to cover out-of-pocket costs. Patients who pay 20 percent down can make manageable monthly payments with no service or collection fees. His team works closely with patients' insurance providers to maximize coverage. Dr. Anderson also accepts Medicaid.
