Genetic Disorders
Close to our heart.
At OP, we have a special place in our hearts for children and adults born with genetic conditions. We have treated oral health issues related to congenital conditions such as cleft palate, Down syndrome, ectodermal dysplasia, amelogenesis imperfecta, dentogenesis imperfecta, incontinentia pigmenti and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome — just to name a few.
Expertise with reach.
Not only do we understand these complex disorders, we know how to properly diagnosis and treat them. That’s why families from over 18 states have traveled to Arkansas for our expertise.
Putting it all together
We have experience in leveraging medical insurance to help offset the expenses associated with reconstructive surgery. Likewise, we have become efficient in combining appointments to reduce travel costs and time off from school or work.
Our well-trained doctors and master technicians have helped patients from all over the US with congenital issues affecting their oral health. In many of these scenarios, we are creating the perfect smile for a child who has never actually had one.
Here for you
For over a decade, we have made it our purpose to grow into a Center for Help. Our team is recognized by the NIH, NORD, many craniofacial organizations and various Down syndrome groups. We serve as one of the few US dental centers for NFED. OP literally "wrote the book" & "NFED Dental Providers Toolkit," so more dentists can leverage medical insurance for their patients. We have worked with senators to draft legislation and served as a knowledge resource for insurance commissioners.
We host annual medical billing classes that are taught by The Z Group LLC, for dental professionals.
“Working with Ozark Prosthodontics has been a life changing experience for our family. After years of searching, we found Ozark through a lucky google search that resulted in finding an old forum for craniofacial patients. I took a chance and called the number on the forum. The first time I spoke to Lori McNeel, I cried. I had finally found someone who understood the pain my husband had been enduring most of his life. In May 2019, my husband had his first of many surgeries. The first surgery was transformative—suddenly my husband could chew without pain and was no longer embarrassed of his smile. We had a long road ahead of us, but we knew we had made the right decision to work with Ozark. Dr. Sinada is the most professional, caring, and thoughtful doctor I have ever met. His bedside manner and communication are next to none, and while each surgery was stressful, I knew my husband was in excellent hands. Nearly eighteen months and six surgeries later, I can honestly say working with the Ozark team has been one of the best decisions we have ever made for our family.”
