About

Board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon Paul Koshgerian, DMD, MD, operates out of Grantville at 6386 Alvarado Ct, Suite 110, San Diego, CA 92120, as part of The Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Specialists of San Diego. Dr. Koshgerian holds dual degrees — a DMD from the University of Kentucky College of Dentistry, where he graduated first in his class, and an MD from the University of Louisville School of Medicine earned in 2012. He completed general surgery training and an oral and maxillofacial surgery residency in 2015, followed by a Kaiser Permanente surgical team appointment, and holds board certification from the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. The Grantville office — one of three San Diego locations in the practice — sits just off Interstate 8 east of SDSU, and handles the full scope of oral surgery: wisdom-tooth extraction, dental implant placement, bone grafting, impacted-canine exposure, full-arch restoration, and facial trauma treatment. General dentists across the 92120 ZIP refer surgical cases to the Alvarado Court office, and the practice maintains a direct coordination pathway with Alvarado Dental Group on Alvarado Road for pre-surgical imaging and post-operative restorative follow-up. IV sedation and general anesthesia are administered in-house using 3D scanning and diagnostic imaging equipment, eliminating the need for hospital-based operating suites for most procedures. Dr. Koshgerian also performs oral surgery at a UCSD-affiliated community dental clinic serving underserved populations in San Diego. Post-surgical rehabilitation for TMJ cases and jaw-mobility recovery routes through the Grantville sports-medicine corridor, and San Diego Sports Medicine & Family Health Center manages the soft-tissue recovery phase following maxillofacial procedures. The practice offers Stemodontics stem-cell banking following wisdom-tooth extraction, preserving viable dental pulp stem cells for potential future therapeutic use. The Alvarado Court surgical suite processes implant placement using digitally guided surgical stent protocols calibrated to CBCT scan data, reducing chair time and improving positional accuracy for single-unit and full-arch cases.
