I'm 24 hours post a molar extraction with sedation. I can honestly say this was my best dentistry experience in my 61 years of dental care! I could not have asked for a nicer group or more professional group, from the front office to all the staff that took care of me during the set up to completion of my procedure. I feel this was the most humane dentistry procedure I've ever had.

All the employees were very nice and professional. My regular dentist had suggested Dr. Aaron Baldwin for implants that I was needing due to permanent bridgework deterioration. Dr. Baldwin discussed with me what he would recommend and I felt confident in his ability to do a good job and schedule an appointment to have the implants. The implants were done in their office, everyone was professional and very helpful answering any of my questions and the surgery went well. On a follow-up appointment I found out that Dr Baldwin did not do what he and I had discussed which was to put in some cadaver bone to fill in the spaces where my bone had degraded. I did not know at the time that this would affect the final implants. Once they put in the final implants I did not have a full set of teeth. Because Dr Baldwin did not put the screws in the right places for the all on 4 implants I don't have any teeth in the back on either side of my mouth instead of a full set on top I only have 11 teeth starting in the middle front and spreading to each side. At this point which is over a year past my implants I'm not happy at all. I feel like Dr Baldwin made a decision while I was in it anesthesia and it was not the right one for me. Plus the cadaver bone was part of the estimate for my work being done and since it wasn't used I didn't get any money back and I had to pay all up front. I guess I wish I had talked to someone else before I went with Dr Baldwin. But he was nice and I trusted him and I would not do it again

This place is exceptional!!! The staff are so caring and so professional. No detail in my care was left out. Dr. Baldwin did a fantastic job removing my impacted wisdom tooth and the molar next to it. I had minimal swelling and only took Advil for some discomfort even though I had prescription pain medication. I live in Little Rock and will tell you it was definitely worth the drive to Hot Springs to have this done.

I highly recommend, my 19 year old with impacted wisdom teeth had a smooth surgery and no pain or swelling afterwards. He was up and back to normal routines the day after his wisdom teeth removal.

Everything and everyone was so incredibly nice. I was so nervous and with very little effort the young lady calmed me down; just because she was so calm and kind. Everyone was.. Everything was. In short.. this place was amazing.

Have a really good experience. I had questions about my options concerning a problem with my tooth, and I was certainly lead in the best direction for my situation. Everyone was helpful and friendly, and I know that they all have their patients' best interest at heart.

Dr. Praetzel and his staff saved my life! I went in the have some oral surgery and was put on a heart monitor which sowed that I had some heart Issues, which was news to me. Dr. Praetzel said I would have to check with a heart specialist first before he could do the oral surgery. It is a good thing that he checked my heart first because I had to have a quadruple bypass. my widow maker was 95 percent closed plus other heart issues. After the bypass the oral surgery went very well! I am very pleased with Dr. Praetzel and his staff and would highly recommend them. I thank God for them because he (God) is my healer!

My experience was great. I was kind of nervous at first but the staff made me feel very comfortable. Everyone was nice. The office was very pretty and clean. My visit was with Dr. Baldwin, he explained everything well. I was in and out 45 mins to an hour with the removal of two wisdom teeth plus one extra tooth. I would definitely recommend to family/friends.
