Experience Oral Surgery Redefined
At Ottawa Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, we are dedicated to delivering full-scope oral and maxillofacial surgical care with precision, integrity, and respect for every patient and referring clinician. Our practice was founded on a simple belief: exceptional surgical outcomes are achieved not only through technical excellence, but through thoughtful communication, collaboration, and trust.
We serve patients throughout Ottawa and beyond, and we are proud to be a specialty practice built to support both individuals and the dental professionals who entrust us with their care.
The Art and Science of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
Twin surgeons Dr. Dane McMillan and Dr. Kale McMillan envisioned a surgical practice that transcends procedural dentistry. Their shared philosophy integrates advanced surgical expertise with a patient-centered approach—where education, clarity, and compassion are integral to every decision.
As Canada’s only dual specialists in oral and maxillofacial surgery and prosthodontics, the McMillans bring a uniquely comprehensive perspective to complex surgical and restorative cases. This dual training allows for cohesive planning across surgical and prosthetic disciplines, particularly in advanced implant, reconstructive, and oncologic care.
Their approach ensures that treatment decisions are not made in isolation, but with full consideration of function, aesthetics, long-term outcomes, and patient well-being.
A Standard Beyond Compare
Our practice is intentionally designed to honor the trust placed in us by general dentists and specialists. We believe the referral relationship is a partnership, grounded in shared respect and a mutual commitment to patient care.
With two specialists working in close alignment, complex cases benefit from shared insight, refined decision-making, and consistent communication.
Every procedure—from dental implants to reconstructive jaw surgery—is performed with meticulous technique, functional precision, and aesthetic sensitivity.
Referring clinicians can expect clear communication, timely reporting, and seamless coordination before, during, and after treatment.
Surgical Leadership
Dr. Dane McMillan and Dr. Kale McMillan are aligned in vision, philosophy, and clinical standards. Their approach merges advanced surgical training with thoughtful patient engagement, ensuring individuals feel as informed as they are cared for.
Both surgeons hold extensive training and licensure across multiple jurisdictions, reflecting a depth of education and experience that informs their comprehensive approach to care.
Care Beyond Geography
While our practice is based in Ottawa, we routinely care for patients who travel from outside the region. Our team is experienced in coordinating treatment efficiently for those coming from a distance, ensuring care is delivered with the same level of precision and attention regardless of geography.
We are committed to providing expert care to patients near and far, without compromise.
