I had 2 shattered teeth that needed extraction. Once in the chair, the dental assistant was amazing! She talked me through everything! She truly has a gift for her career! Doc came in, introduced himself, left, and assistant was back in motion! Doc returned and about 10 15 minutes later, I was walking out! I cannot recall names! I forget names when I am nervous! Thank you for making an unpleasant situation, go smoothly!

I loved the nurses! They made it fun! Eased my mind too of any anxiety I mightve had. I will say post procedure of all four wisdom teeth at once has been hell for me, but they did awesome! And I got to keep my teeth

I was referred here by my dentist and I am incredibly pleased with the outcome. I had all 4 wisdom teeth pulled at once. I felt nothing. The doctor was very knowledgeable and caring as were his nurses. Thank you all at MOFS for a good experience.
