With over 20 years of experience, Dr. John R. Pasqual specializes in<br />

all surgery of the mouth and facial-complex, from wisdom teeth, and<br />

dental implants to facial trauma and reconstructive surgery.<br />

When looking for a dental specialist and surgeon who is<br />

trusted and experienced in oral and facial reconstruction,<br />

Dr. John R. Pasqual continues to be a top recommendation.<br />

Pasqual Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, located in Delray Beach for over<br />

12 years, offers only the highest quality technology such as laser surgery<br />

and Three-Dimensional Scans for the betterment of their patients.<br />

“The practice focuses on oral surgery and rehabilitation, dental<br />

implants, oral pathology, cancer screenings, facial trauma and reconstructive<br />

surgery of the mouth and the face,” said Dr. Pasqual.<br />

“We have added laser-assisted surgery to our practice; it is less<br />

traumatic and gentler to the surrounding tissues, less pain after<br />

surgery and less downtime. The goal of providing advanced technology<br />

and procedures is for better healing and decreased discomfort<br />

for our patients.”<br />

Dr. Pasqual’s staff is trained in IV sedation within their state-ofthe-art<br />

office, which offers private rooms and a relaxing setting for<br />

each patient. They have recently incorporated lasers in the practice<br />

for surgical cases, which is less painful and provides for faster recovery<br />

times. The office is also utilizing Platelet Rich Fibrin to accelerate<br />

the healing of soft and hard tissue.<br />

“Pasqual Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery is different from many dental<br />

or medical clinics; we are a very patient-centric office. We focus on the<br />

patients’ physical as well as emotional wellbeing,” said Dr. Pasqual.<br />

The center utilizes only the best diagnostic equipment including<br />

i-CAT 3D imaging which produces precise high-definition 3D scans<br />

of your entire mouth, face and skull so an accurate treatment plan<br />

may be established. Dr. Pasqual’s office is one of the few centers<br />

that utilize this advanced technology that greatly benefits each<br />

patient because of its accuracy. They also offer a procedure called<br />

NightLase, which is a laser treatment used to decrease the frequency<br />

of snoring at night and improve patient’s airways to sleep better.<br />

Other offerings include: Botox and facial fillers, dental implants,<br />

wisdom teeth, oral rehabilitation, and utilizing laser for facial aesthetics<br />

to decrease scaring, wrinkles, and sun spots with minimal<br />

downtime and discomfort. Dr. Pasqual’s experience in the only surgical<br />

specialty of dentistry gives him an edge over many.<br />

In fact, oral and maxillofacial surgery requires years of hospitalbased<br />

surgical and medical training after graduation from dental<br />

school. John R. Pasqual, D.M.D., P.A. is a board-certified oral and<br />

maxillofacial surgeon and fellow of the American Association of<br />

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, as well as fellow of the American<br />

College of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons. He is a graduate and<br />

graduating class President of the University of Pittsburgh School<br />

of Dental Medicine. Dr. Pasqual received post-graduate training<br />

in surgery as well as anesthesia at Case Western Reserve University,<br />

MetroHealth Medical Center, a level I trauma center located in<br />

Cleveland, Ohio where he served as chief resident.<br />

Dr. Pasqual has many accolades and gives back in other areas of<br />

his life, including being the past President of the Palm Beach County<br />

Dental Association, as well as the <strong>Atlantic</strong> Coast District Dental Association.<br />

He is the former Chairman of the Bethesda Hospital Foundation,<br />

and current member of Bethesda Hospital East and West Board<br />
