About

Lake County’s trusted oral surgeons for over 30 years.

Dr. LaTocha and Dr. Gasper have spent three decades partnering with Lake County dentists and their patients — delivering specialized surgical care with the experience, technology, and comfort the community deserves.

Board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons complete years of additional hospital-based surgical training after dental school, with a deep focus on the mouth, jaw, and facial structures. That specialized depth is what makes us a trusted resource for dentists across the area — and a confident choice for patients facing procedures that call for surgical expertise.

Wisdom teeth and dental implants are among the most common reasons patients come to us, and over three decades we’ve performed thousands of each. Whether it’s a routine extraction or a more involved case requiring bone grafting or advanced implant planning, Dr. LaTocha and Dr. Gasper bring the experience to handle it well.

We also know that for many patients, the biggest concern isn’t the procedure itself — it’s the anxiety leading up to it. That’s why we offer multiple sedation options, from nitrous oxide to IV sedation, so you and your surgeon can find the right level of comfort for you. Pain and anxiety should never stand in the way of care you need.

For 30 years, Lake County families and their dental teams have trusted us with some of their most important decisions. That relationship means everything to us – and it shows in how we work.
