Oral surgery in a hospital? Does anyone know of an oral surgeon that would perform surgery in a hospital, not their own office? Needs to be done in a hospital because of a medical condition that requires more than what can be done in an office.
Has anyone had successful TMJ surgery in this town? I could use any input anyone might be able to give on finding the right doctor here. From looking around it looks like it's hard to find competent treatment for TMJ and I've already had dealings with two nutwhacker dentists who only managed to make things worse.
I am almost certain I'm going to need jaw surgery.

Anyone know a good dentist/oral surgeon/orthodontist from experience or word of mouth? I currently don't have any insurance. Expecting a big check next week and will finally have enough to pay for everything in full. I need a tooth removed. See pic.

I also need my wisdom teeth removed as well but I plan on going to a school and getting them removed for free there.
After I'm done with that, would like to finally get braces as well. Anyhow, if you have know any good dentist/surgeons and a orthodontist from experience, would appropriate any contact info or recommendations. I haven't seen a dentist in about two years and very nervous about everything. This is something I've been putting off for a very long time and finally glad to be able to take care of this. Thank you for your time.

http://www.widneroms.com/ These guys! I had my wisdom teeth out by Dr. Widner, and my boyfriend had his out by Dr. Alford. We have NO IDEA why, but we were both refunded 100% of our 20% copays, meaning our surgeries were 100% covered by our insurance. We have separate insurances and had the surgeries two years apart, but it was awesome. Also very pain-free, heavy on the prescription painkillers, and great aftercare.
