He is dedicated to providing patients with the best experience possible through what might be one of the most stressful times in their lives.

As an experienced and board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, Dr. Tsvetov is qualified to perform a number of oral surgery procedures. In particular, many Riverside County patients come to him for their teeth extraction needs. One of the most common surgeries he performs is wisdom teeth removal. The wisdom teeth are four extra molars in the back of the mouth that begin to emerge in early adulthood. Because most people don’t have room for them, these new teeth can cause pain and push existing teeth out of alignment. Dr. Tsvetov can remove these teeth, so patients don’t struggle with these issues.

Riverside County patients can also come to Dr. Tsvetov to have their missing teeth replaced. His main focus in this area is dental implant which are the most durable, effective, and natural-looking tooth replacement option currently available. Dental implants are tiny titanium posts that are inserted directly into the jawbone where the root of the tooth used to go. These posts are then given time to integrate into the jawbone so that they provide a sturdy and solid base. Next, a small abutment will be attached to the implant, which is a metal part that extends down through the gums. Finally,  a dentist will attach the replacement teeth to these abutments, restoring both a patient’s smile and their ability to speak and eat.

Many patients often wonder why they can’t just go to their normal dentist to have an oral surgery procedure done. While dentists can technically perform these surgeries, they don’t have anywhere near the experience of an oral surgeon. Both oral surgeons and dentists complete dental school, but the main difference is that oral surgeons then go on to complete surgical residencies for another four to six years. During this time, they specialize in a specific field and learn all the tricks of the trade. Throughout this training, they’ll also be exposed to a wide range of complications, meaning they’ll be prepared for anything once they finally complete their studies and open their own practice.
