Today, we honor the men and women who have served our country with courage, commitment, and sacrifice.
Here in Colorado Springs, we are deeply grateful to care for so many veterans and active-duty service members from our local community. It is a privilege to support you in return.
We are especially proud of Dr. Listello, who served in the United States Air Force before continuing his service to others through healthcare. His experience, integrity, and dedication to patient care reflect the same values he carried while in uniform.
To our veterans, our active-duty members, and your families:
Thank you for your service, your resilience, and your continued trust in us.

🌟 Healing Naturally with PRF 🌟
At Pikes Peak Oral Surgery, we’re always looking for ways to help our patients heal faster and more comfortably. That’s why we use PRF – Platelet-Rich Fibrin – during many surgical procedures.
🔹 What is PRF?
PRF is created from a small sample of your own blood, spun in a centrifuge to separate out a concentrated layer full of platelets, white blood cells, and growth factors.
🔹 Why is it helpful?
These natural healing components are then placed at your surgical site, where they:
✨ Boost healing
✨ Reduce swelling and discomfort
✨ Lower risk of complications
✨ Promote stronger bone and tissue regeneration
🔹 Where do we use it?
PRF is especially helpful in procedures like dental implants, extractions, and bone grafting.
By using your body’s own resources, we’re making healing faster, smoother, and more predictable—for a smile that recovers beautifully. 💙
