Dr. DeLisi is Board certified Diplomate with additional fellowship training in anesthesia. Board Certification is the highest level of excellence an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon can achieve in the field after completing the mandatory requirements of a surgical residency in an accredited surgical program.

The American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is the most difficult, extensive, and comprehensive Board in the field of dentistry. Achieving certification requires a vigorous schedule of academic and clinical testing in all areas of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery before a national certifying board made up of the finest surgeons in the world.

Diplomates who have achieved board certification are required to perform certification maintenance yearly, ensuring that the surgeon is keeping up with the latest advances in dentistry, medicine, anesthesia and surgery. Dr. DeLisi achieved Board Certification in 2008 and is proud to maintain this credential as a Diplomate of the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.

Not all Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons are board certified due to the rigors and requirements associated with Diplomate status. Dr. DeLisi believes all patients deserve the best from their provider, and he is committed to surgical excellence and the standard of care set by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons are the most qualified, experienced, and highest-trained surgical specialists in the field of Dentistry. They are the only dental specialists to receive extensive training in dentistry, medicine, surgery, and anesthesia. They are uniquely the most qualified to place dental implants, perform teeth extractions and provide surgery to patients in need.

An Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon cares for the most complex surgical challenges and are often called upon to provide treatment for patients with significant medical histories and disabilities. They are the only dental specialist that serve the community as on-call trauma surgeons, treating the most complicated cases of facial trauma.

Went and had a broken molar removed today. Everyone was a pleasure to be around and I was very relaxed with the doctor and staff performing the extraction surgery. We're onto the healing process now and I couldn't be happier with the tooth now gone. Thank you.

I was super nervous as this was my first surgery ever but the girl with the yellow bandana (I’m sorry, I don’t remember names that well,) was super nice and we made a couple jokes! I got the laughing gas and almost instantly I started to get drowsy but I was still going. Then Dr. DeLisi put in the other medicine and I got totally zonked out. Lightweight, amirite?Anyway, I got woken up after the very quick procedure with surprisingly not a lot of pain! I was given an easy to follow set of instructions and TONS of gauze for my gums.I’m sitting on my couch maybe five hours later and besides the gauze, drowsiness and tiniest bit of aching from my surgery site, I feel perfectly normal. While I am sad I forgot to take a picture so I could show it off, I had a great first surgery.Fantastic group of doctors and fantastic service! I would definitely trust them again to work on my mouth!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Honestly I was very very nervous. My face was calm and collected but inside no way I was so crazy nervous! Being that I was getting two wisdom teeth pulled today. As soon as I walked in the receptionist was very welcoming, then they pulled me to the back and the dental assistant said to not worry about a thing. And surely as soon as she put the nitrate i went to sleep and then woke up and here i am, everything felt super fast. The Doctor was great, previous appointment he went straight to the point of what to expect and what he was going to do.My personal opinion this Dental office is great!!

I was scared, first time, prayed, thanked God and the set up was quick and painless, the gas I've never done b4 was quick I musta been tired from all the pain I passed out. Woke up and was done. First day of recovery and THANK GOD FOR BROTHER DELISI, no pain. 5 star for this MILITARY NAVAL DENTIST. Of all the government jobs, he chose to work for civillians, im dirt poor and this man treated me like I was 5 star kin..GOD BLESS THIS MAN!.

I got my wisdom teeth taken out and mass removed from my mouth by Dr Delisi and his surgical team. They were amazing and did a great job from start to finish I was very nervous going into surgery for the first time but my mind was at ease as soon as I stepped into the office and I didn’t have any pain or discomfort at all.Thank you

I’ve had multiple procedures done at Dr Delisi’s office. Every time has been an extremely smooth experience, coupled with the amazing staff and great vibes throughout the office, I would go back 100 times over. Really enjoyed how comfortable I felt throughout my extractions because of the staff, usually I don’t handle that stuff great but they made me feel really confident about the surgery throughout the whole thing. Dr Delisi really knows what he’s doing, I am extremely impressed with how smooth my healing process was post procedure.
