placement!
Dental Implants
Have you heard about dental implants, the revolutionary method for
permanent tooth replacement?
We are the high-desert’s “Center for Dental Implant”. Dr. Tiner places implants to substitute for the root lost teeth, providing a stable foundation on which your restorative dentist can anchor your new crown, bridge or denture.
We utilize the most advanced implant systems and placement procedures, which sometimes allow your restorative dentist to immediately attach your restoration…accomplishing in a single day what used to take months to complete.
Are you a candidate for dental implants?
Surgical Suite
Lonnie W. Tiner, D.D.S. strives to provide the highest quality surgical care in a comfortable and pleasant environment.
For your convenience, we perform most surgeries on-site, utilizing state-of-the-art monitoring systems.
Thanks to our in-office surgical suite, you will be cared for by the same team you have come to know and trust during your pre-operative visits.
For patients who require a hospital setting, Dr. Tiner is on-staff at Hi Desert Medical Center in Joshua Tree.
Anesthesia
If just hearing the work “surgery” makes you uneasy, you’re not alone.
Every day, Dr. Tiner successfully treats patients with severe anxiety.
Dr. Tiner is certified in general anesthesia and IV sedation and will help you choose the option that’s best for you.
General anesthesia and IV sedation allow you to drift through your procedure without a care and leave our office rested and relaxed. Fear will never stand in the way of needed treatment, talk to us about general anesthesia and IV sedation.
Wisdom Teeth
By the age of 18, the average adult has 32 teeth. The average mouth holds only 28.
These four extra teeth are your wisdom teeth. They may grow sideways, partially emerge from the gum, or remain beneath the gum and bone.
Impacted wisdom teeth can cause pain and infection and disrupts alignment.
The removal of impacted wisdom teeth can resolve these issues and prevent more extensive problems later.
Dr. Tiner can perform your surgery on-site, offering a selection of anesthesia options for your comfort, including general anesthesia and IV sedation.
Bone Grafting
If you’re missing teeth but have been told you’re not a candidate for dental implants because of the insufficient bone support, you should know…state-of-the-art bone and tissue grafting can make implant placement possible.
Dr. Tiner has special training in the most advanced techniques to re-grow or replace bone and gum tissue lost over time.
By providing bone and tissue grafting, as well as dental implant placement, Lonnie W. Tiner, D.D.S., offers permanent tooth replacement when others say nothing can be done.
Oral Cancer
Shockingly, 34 thousand new cases of oral cancer are diagnosed every year.
Because early symptoms are usually painless and hidden, oral cancer has traditionally been diagnosed in later stages, resulting in an alarming mortality rate.
Dr. Tiner recommends you perform monthly self-examinations. Ask us for a brochure the next time you’re in the office.
If you smoke, use smokeless tobacco or drink alcohol or have poor oral hygiene, loose dentures or rough teeth surfaces, we recommend you visit your general dentist or Dr. Tiner for a yearly examination.

You were referred to us for specialized care because Dr. Tiner is among the most experiences and accomplished oral and maxillofacial surgeons in the area.
Oral and maxillofacial surgical treatment is always a team effort. Our reputation is built by working closely with your restorative dentist to provide the most comprehensive care available.
Dr. Tiner warmly welcome new patients and greatly appreciates the referrals we’ve received over the years from patients and fellow dental professionals.
