What is Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery?
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is a specialty of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and defects of the mouth, jaw and facial areas. The Latin root words Ora (mouth), maxilla (jaw), and faci (face), explain the long, foreign-sounding name.
A board Certified Surgeon must complete an oral and maxillofacial training program of at least three years following dental school. The program must be approved by the American Dental Association. Following completion of the program, the doctor must pass a rigorous oral and written exam administered by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery to be certified as a Diplomate.
All of our surgeons are board certified.
Dental Implants in Columbus
Dental implants are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. The person who has lost teeth regains the ability to eat virtually anything and can smile with confidence, knowing that teeth appear natural and that facial contours will be preserved.
Dental implants are changing the way people live. With them, people are rediscovering the comfort and confidence to eat, speak, laugh and enjoy life. For more information about dental implants or to schedule a consultation appointment, call our office.

Patient Review from Kim G
Dr. Allen, & his entire staff are top notch quality professionals. You’ll receive exceptional care, beginning to end. I realize a person can be scared or a bit apprehensive when getting oral surgery. Dr. Allen has a way with people; a way of putting your mind at ease. B4 u no it, your in the chair, out like a light (the best sleep btw) & awake by the time you’ve ever had a chance to worry or think about being nervous to begin with. The great thing about West Ga/Dr. Allen is, I’ve never had to worry about what type of care I’ll receive, or if Id be just another number. HE IS VERY GOOD, in my opinion the best at what he does. He really is the most down to earth doc I’ve ever met.

Patient Review from April H
I was treated with the upmost respect by everyone in the office. i had 1 tooth pulled and 2 implants place, I did not feel any pain and the next day still no pain. i saw the X-ray and the placement of the implant was perfect. I would recommend the staff and Dr Mark Zwickey to anyone. His approach and knowledge was beyond perfect, they made me feel relaxed, he wasted no time getting the job done. i have worked in the medical field for 20 years and DR Zwickey is the best in his field i have ever known. Make an appointment with him and you will never regret your decision.

Patient Review from Brenda L
I had 2 teeth extracted by Dr. Zwickey. He is the best Oral Surgeon I have ever been to. I didn't feel a thing I would never consider anyone else. In fact, I am going back for an Implant consult. The office staff makes you feel comfortable from start to finish. The main thing I loved was how everything was explained to me and his assistant took her time answering my questions regarding aftercare!!!!

Patient Review from Judy D
This office is one of the best organized I have experienced. This is my third procedure.Each time my waiting room time was minimal. The staff members are friendly, caring, organized, and very efficient. They kept me informed of each thing they were going to do. Dr. Zwickey is very gentle and careful not to cause any discomfort. The communication with my dentist is also very good.

Patient Review from Monica F
Highly recommend very professional nice and clean office. I didn’t feel a thing. I had to get about 8 or 9 up teeth and one back bottom tooth removed with an immediate upper denture. They got me comfortable and next thing i knew i was waking up ready to go home and it was over. Very pleasant experience!! I would give 10 stars but there’s only 5 lol 😉

Patient Review from Daryl Y
I can't say that having a tooth extracted was fun, but it was as pleasant of an experience as it possibly could be at West Georgia Oral and Facial Surgery. When I called for the appointment and explained that I was in pain, they found a way to have me seen almost immediately. The check in and the check out process was really a breeze. The staff and Dr. Zwickey were extremely friendly, courteous, and professional. I felt like the evaluation and the procedure were both top notch and best of all I was treated very quickly and the procedure was nearly painless. The facility is super nice, easily accessible, and appeared to me to have all of the most up to date equipment. If I ever need oral surgery again, this is where I will go. I highly recommend this business!
