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 />
