Oral Surgeon in Yorktown Heights

When oral health problems reach the point where surgery is the answer, the qualifications of the person performing that surgery matter enormously. Board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons bring a level of precision, training, and clinical scope that goes far beyond general dentistry, and that distinction can make all the difference in your outcome and overall comfort during what is often a significant moment in your health journey.

At Northern Westchester Dental Care in Yorktown Heights, Dr. Cameron Lewis brings the depth of a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon directly into our multi-specialist practice. Trained at New York Medical College and affiliated with both the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) and the American College of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (ACOS), Dr. Lewis delivers Manhattan-caliber surgical care right here in Northern Westchester, where you can trust that your treatment is in the most capable hands.

What an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon Does

Oral and maxillofacial surgery is one of the most comprehensive surgical specialties in dentistry, requiring years of dedicated hospital-based training that sets it apart from other dental disciplines. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons complete four to six years of hospital-based surgical residency following dental school, training alongside medical residents in general surgery, anesthesiology, internal medicine, and other specialty areas. This rigorous preparation qualifies them to diagnose and treat conditions of the mouth, teeth, jaws, face, and surrounding structures, from complex extractions and implant placement to bone reconstruction and sedation management.

Dr. Lewis carries that level of training into every procedure he performs at Northern Westchester Dental Care. Patients who come to us with surgical needs are treated right here in the same practice they trust, by a surgeon whose credentials reflect the highest standards in the field, with no unfamiliar offices or disconnected referrals to navigate.

Oral Surgery Services Offered at Our Yorktown Heights Practice

Dr. Lewis handles a broad range of surgical procedures at our Yorktown Heights office, and every plan is shaped by each patient’s individual needs and overall health picture. Our “Whole Body Dentistry” philosophy means we look beyond the immediate surgical site to ensure your treatment supports your well-being in a meaningful, lasting way.

From the moment you arrive for your consultation to the day of surgery and every follow-up appointment after, our team manages your care as a unified whole, coordinating between Dr. Lewis and our general and specialist dentists to ensure nothing falls through the cracks.

The Credentials Behind Dr. Lewis's Oral Surgery Care

Dr. Lewis completed his surgical training at New York Medical College, a leading academic medical institution with a long-standing reputation for producing highly trained physicians and surgeons. His board certification in oral and maxillofacial surgery reflects that he has met the rigorous written and clinical examination requirements set by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, a distinction that only a portion of practicing oral surgeons hold.

AAOMS and ACOS Affiliation

His active affiliations with AAOMS and ACOS are not simply professional memberships. Both organizations require ongoing continuing education, adherence to clinical excellence standards, and periodic evaluations to ensure that affiliated surgeons maintain the highest level of patient care. For patients at Northern Westchester Dental Care, this means that Dr. Lewis’s knowledge evolves alongside the latest advances in oral surgery, anesthesia, and implant science.

What to Expect Before and After Oral Surgery

Preparation and recovery are two areas where patients often have the most questions, and we take both seriously. Before your procedure, Dr. Lewis and our team will walk you through everything so there are no surprises on the day of surgery. Our advanced dental technology allows us to plan each procedure with precision before treatment begins, reducing uncertainty and supporting better outcomes across the board.

After surgery, we provide detailed post-operative guidance through our pre- and post-care resources so that your recovery is as smooth and informed as possible. Healing properly after procedures like bone grafting ahead of dental implants or a complex extraction requires clear guidance and a team that remains available when questions arise, and ours does.
