Booking an appointment
You can schedule an appointment directly with our specialist in oral and maxillofacial surgery. It’s advisable to book time with the specialist if you need procedures such as dental implants or surgical extraction of wisdom teeth.
Another approach is to schedule an appointment with one of Helmiäinen’s general dentists. Our professionals work seamlessly together, and our general dentists can refer patients as needed to our specialists in oral and maxillofacial surgery.
