Our Flint office is on the south side of Flint near I-75 and US-23, our Saginaw office is off of M-84 and Tittabawassee Road, our Bay City office is northwest of the Saginaw River on Shrestha Drive, and our Owosso office is next to the Shiawassee River off of S Michigan 52.

Dr. Frey strives to make patients feel comfortable by providing them with personalized treatments and alleviating any concerns. Most people visit Greater Michigan Oral Surgeons & Dental Implant Center because they are experiencing pain, discomfort, or worry about an existing problem, and Dr. Frey finds it rewarding when they experience exceptional care and improved oral health. Overall, Dr. Frey is happy that oral surgery provides him the opportunity to combine his skills in surgery and anesthesia so that he can provide timely and effective treatment for his patients.

Dr. Frey has lived in the Flint area for most of his life. After graduating from Grand Blanc High School and attending the University of Michigan as an undergraduate, Dr. Frey received his dental degree from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. He also completed a 1-year general practice residency at the Medical College of Ohio and a 3-year residency in oral and maxillofacial surgery at the Detroit Medical Center.

During both of these residencies, Dr. Frey gained extensive hands-on training in surgery and treatment of oral and facial defects, disease, and trauma. He also completed extensive training in anesthesia and IV sedation delivery and management. Following his training, he returned here to his hometown and began seeing patients in this practice. After 26 years of practice, his goals remain the same: to treat each patient like he or she is family and to provide the best care possible.

Dr. Lesneski strives to achieve excellence in providing compassionate care and delivering the optimal outcome to every patient. Whether youve lost teeth and are seeking to replace them with dental implants, have impacted wisdom teeth or canines, have sustained a traumatic facial injury, or would like to improve your youthful appearance, Dr. Lesneski and his staff have the knowledge and expertise to diagnose your problem and treat it appropriately. At the end of the day, patient safety, comfort, and satisfaction are his top priorities.

Dr. Lesneski completed his undergraduate studies at Michigan State University and then went on to earn his dental degree at the University of Detroit Mercy. Following the completion of his schooling, he began his surgical training at Temple University in Philadelphia and finished his residency at Gundersen Lutheran Health System in Wisconsin.

The experience and training that Dr. Lesneski received gave him the skills necessary to diagnose and address a variety of oral conditions for patients of all ages. Dr. Lesneski is highly trained in all aspects of treatment, from addressing complex facial injuries to safely administering anesthesia. He finds it extremely satisfying to help patients heal and regain their oral health and function.

Dr. Kittle was born in Germany but grew up all over the world with his family moving every four years. He knew from a young age that he wanted to pursue a healthcare career. After serving for two years on a Mormon mission in Brazil and having already worked as a dental assistant in his fathers office, he decided to pursue dentistry. It was during dental school that he learned about oral and maxillofacial surgery and realized that he loved it and wanted to become an oral surgeon.

Dr. Kittle finds his job extremely rewarding, and he loves being able to provide patients with positive treatment experiences. He makes sure to talk patients through the process so they can feel comfortable with the procedure and have a chance to ask questions. Dr. Kittle, along with our entire team, believes in the importance of effectively communicating with our patients and their families to ensure a comfortable treatment process.

Dr. Kittle earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Kansas, Lawrence in 2003. He continued his education at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, where he completed his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. After graduating from dental school in 2007, he completed the Advanced Education in General Dentistry Program Program at Fort Sill, OK. He then went on to complete his four-year oral and maxillofacial residency at San Antonio Military Medical Center.

Dr. Kittle is certified by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (ABOMS), making him the highest qualified dental professional to treat your oral surgery needs. To earn his board-certification, he completed rigorous written and oral exams to demonstrate his exemplary knowledge of the oral and maxillofacial specialty.

In his spare time, Dr. Kittle is an amateur photographer who loves taking photos. In addition, he enjoys jogging/running, mountain biking, and other forms of exercise. He is an avid reader and a sports-enthusiast and loves spending time with his wife and children.

April and Dr. John are amazing! They have a great bedside manner and treat their patients with respect. April's comforting personality was much appreciated as I have a fear of dentist (thank goodness Dr. John is a surgeon!). My procedure went extremely well and I have healed incredibly fast. I would highly recommend them to anyone and already have!

Becky took care of me and I couldn't have felt more comfortable. She was so patent with me as I have very bad anxiety and she sat with me the entire time. The doctor himself had amazing bedside manner and I would recommend to anyone especially if you have anxiety.

I had all 4 wisdom teeth removed at this location and I couldn't recommend this business more! I suffer from extreme anxiety/panic attacks and the staff was so comforting and patient with me. When I had questions post-surgery they got me in within the next day just so I could have some piece of mind. I had no complications during or after surgery, everything went very smooth. So glad I went here.
