Oral & Facial Surgery Center takes patient and community education on oral health very seriously.  We believe that you’re never too young or too old to learn about oral health and dental care.

Dr. Skoch Presenting Educational Presentation at Butterfield Trail Village

On Thursday, September 2, 2010, Dr. Steven Skoch (one of our board certified surgeons in the Fayetteville AR surgery center) gave an educational PowerPoint presentation on Dental Implants to interested residents of Butterfield Trail Village.  Included in this informative presentation were facts regarding the history and progression of dental implants, the benefits of dental implants over other options for missing teeth, bone grafting, candidates for dental implants and other relevant and interesting information regarding this topic.

Well received by those who attended, an excellent Question and Answer period followed the presentation.

Earning the accreditation seal from AAAHC is one of many ways that Oral & Facial Surgery Center ensures optimal patient care.  We voluntarily undergo a strict and thorough review of every aspect of our surgery centers to ensure that:

1. Our patients are treated with respect, consideration and dignity.
2. Our patients are provided complete information concerning their diagnosis, evaluation, treatment, and prognosis and that they are involved in the decision-making processes involving their care.
3. Our patients are provided information regarding their rights and responsibilities, other procedures offered through OFSC, provision for after-hours and/or emergency care, clear and written estimate of fees, provision of alternative payment options, and high-standard credentialing of our health care professionals.
4. Our patients are ensured privacy of their health information and provided a means for feedback through our post-surgery patient satisfaction surveys.
5. Our patients are promised an ongoing quality management and improvement program and a risk-management program designed to protect the life and welfare of every patient and employee.
6. Our patients can be assured that every surgeon on the OFSC team is Board Certified, that our surgery centers have an on-staff registered nurse, and that our dental and surgical team of professionals are not only provided ongoing education but are also CPR and ACLS certified.
7. Both of our accredited facilities meet and exceed all local, state and federal requirements.
8. Our surgery centers always ensure adequate personnel, state-of-the-art equipment, and exceptional surgical and post-operative care.
