Specialties

We perform many types of procedures related to oral surgery at Riverside Oral and Facial Surgery. Dr. Hunt’s expertise in procedures (including dental extractions, dental implants, preparation for orthodontics, oral pathology and many more) make him a knowledgeable and popular oral health care provider in the northwest Georgia area.

Riverside’s Surgeons are uniquely qualified to perform cosmetic procedures involving the aesthetic aspects of the face, mouth, teeth, jaw, nose, ears, neck & eyes.  Due to recent advances and specialized techniques, many facial cosmetic surgery procedures are minimally invasive and can be performed in the office setting using local and/or intravenous sedation or General Anesthesia. As a result, patients are able to recover quicker and benefit from the cost savings that office-based surgery provides.A consultation with Dr. Hunt or Dr. Smalley can determine if you are a candidate for these procedures.

Skin care & enhancements also available.
