Need an oral surgeon or a surgeon specializing in maxillofacial procedures? Live in Southwest or South Central Ohio? When looking for the best oral surgeon in Cincinnati, you may want to consider Dr. Scott Puckett. He’s a maxillofacial surgeon with decades of experience—he’s been in practice since 2000. His unique combination of surgical skill, holistic approach to tooth replacement, and focus on cutting-edge dental technology make him a great choice for any oral surgery – from dental implants to full mouth reconstruction. It’s no wonder many of our patients come from all over to receive care from one of the best maxillofacial dental surgeons in the area.
Compassionate Excellence, Just Outside of Cincinnati
Dr. Scott Puckett practices in Wilmington, Ohio, at Wilmington Oral Surgery. It could take up to 45 minutes to an hour to get to his office from your house (Wilmington is about halfway to Columbus from Cincinnati via I-71), but many Cincinnati-area patients feel the drive is worth it for the highly professional, compassionate, friendly care they receive from Dr. Puckett and his staff. Plenty of our patients make the drive even from Columbus and other cities to visit their favorite maxillofacial surgeon—the care is just that good. When you find a dental doctor who resonates with you, you tend to stick with them.
Most of Dr. Puckett’s new patients are referred to him by existing ones, who describe him as “informative,” “kind,” “gentle,” “caring” and “funny.” All great qualifiers. Anyone can go to school and get a degree that allows them to practice full mouth reconstruction and other oral surgeries, but it takes someone special to bring a level of personability and relatability to it. Dr. Puckett is also the board-certified oral surgeon for Clinton County, a distinction that he is honored to have.
Hundreds of satisfied patients have gotten dental implants, wisdom tooth removal, bone grafting, reconstruction and more at Wilmington Oral Surgery. They like that Dr. Puckett “explains things thoroughly,” and “puts you at ease.” In the words of other patients, he is one of Cincinnati’s best oral surgeons because “the procedure was easy,” “it was virtually pain-free,” and “the customer service was excellent.” Most people dread visiting their local maxillofacial surgeon or having mouth operations performed on them—it really doesn’t have to be that way. With Dr. Puckett, him and his talented team put you at ease, and the patient always comes first.
If you need oral surgery, you may want to look on websites that list top Cincinnati oral surgeons, or interview several oral surgeons in person to see if they are a good fit. Dr. Puckett is always open to consulting with potential patients – discussing the oral surgical services they need and explaining his approach – and he’s certified in every type of sedation for dental procedures.
