If you or a family member in the Lindenhurst area is missing a tooth — or needs an extraction followed by an implant — finding a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon nearby matters. Precision Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is located in Deer Park, just minutes from Lindenhurst, and performs the full range of dental implant procedures in-office. Dr. Mohamed El-Ounsi completed a hospital-based surgical residency and focuses his practice on implant surgery, bone grafting, IV sedation, and complex extractions. Patients from Lindenhurst can reach our Deer Park office in under 10 minutes via the Sunrise Highway corridor.
Meet Your Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon
Dr. El-Ounsi’s path to oral and maxillofacial surgery began at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where he earned a degree in psychology, followed by a master’s degree in pharmacology from Tulane School of Medicine. He then completed dental school at the New York University College of Dentistry before pursuing a general practice residency at Bellevue Hospital Center, where he focused on implant, dentoalveolar surgery, and complex dental rehabilitation.
He went on to complete his oral and maxillofacial surgery residency at NYU Langone and Bellevue Hospital, one of the top OMS programs in the country, serving as chief resident during his final year of training. He is a fellow of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons and a diplomate of the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, and he holds memberships in the American Dental Association, the New York State Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, the Suffolk County Dental Society, and the New York State Dental Association.
We take on the full scope of oral and maxillofacial surgery, but we hold a particular interest in dentoalveolar and implant surgery, IV sedation, and helping patients who thought they had run out of options for restoring their smile.
Dental Implants We Provide Near Lindenhurst
Patients from Lindenhurst who come to us are most commonly referred by their dentist for implant placement after a tooth extraction, or they come in independently after realizing their denture or bridge is no longer working well. Here is what we handle most frequently for patients in the area:
Single-Tooth Implants. A single titanium post replaces the root of a missing tooth, topped with a custom crown. The result is permanent, looks natural, and does not require altering the adjacent teeth the way a bridge does.
Multiple-Tooth Implants and Bridges. When a few teeth are missing in the same area, implant-supported bridges fill the gap without putting pressure on healthy surrounding teeth.
Full-Arch Rehabilitation. For patients who have lost most or all of their teeth in an arch, we place four to six implants strategically to anchor a fixed prosthesis. Same-day options are available for qualifying patients.
Bone Grafting. When bone volume has been lost due to extraction or gum disease, a bone graft may be needed before implant placement. This is performed in-office and is part of the same treatment plan.
Implant-Supported Dentures. For current denture wearers who want a stable, non-removable alternative, implant-supported dentures offer improved retention and chewing function.

Why Patients Near Lindenhurst Choose Precision
Tooth loss remains a common concern among adults, and the causes behind it are largely preventable with the right care. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, cavities, gum disease, and smoking are the leading causes of tooth loss, and adults with certain chronic conditions like diabetes or heart disease experience it more frequently. That reality is part of why we see so many patients from the Lindenhurst area who have put off treatment for years before finally coming in.
We understand that walking into an oral surgery office can feel intimidating, especially if you have been burned by unclear pricing or rushed appointments elsewhere. That is why we prioritize financial transparency for every treatment we recommend, and we never pressure patients into a plan that does not fit their needs or budget. We accept a wide range of dental insurance plans, including Aetna, Cigna, Delta Dental PPO, MetLife, and United Healthcare Dental, along with financing options through CareCredit, Cherry, Alphaeon, and Proceed to help make treatment more accessible.
Advanced Technology, Individualized Care
We invest in state-of-the-art technology because precision matters in surgery. But technology alone does not build trust. What patients tell us they value most is how much time we take to explain what is happening, why a specific approach is recommended, and what recovery will actually look like. Our team offers same-day consultations and urgent same-day care for dental emergencies, so a sudden issue does not have to mean days of waiting in pain.
We also source biomaterials and specialized supplies on an individualized basis for each patient’s treatment, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach to procedures like bone grafting or implant placement.
Understanding Your Treatment Options
Before recommending any procedure, we take time to walk through your full range of options. Some patients are candidates for immediate implants, while others may need orthodontic impaction treatment or a bone graft before moving forward with a permanent restoration. If bone density is insufficient for a standard implant, we may also discuss zygomatic implants or remote anchorage as alternatives.
We also spend time clearing up common misconceptions about oral surgery. Many patients delay treatment because they assume the process will be more painful, more expensive, or more disruptive to their lives than it actually is with modern techniques and sedation options like IV sedation and general anesthesia.
