Dr. Pace removed the affected tooth quickly as well as the new graft. There was zero pain during and following the procedure. Can't ask for much more than that. Highly recommended.

The staff is absolutely wonderful! They made my appointment a breeze. I had my wisdom teeth removed and I came in pretty nervous but they got me back immediately and chatted with me to keep my mind off of it until Dr. Pace came in (which was pretty quickly) Dr. Pace came in with such a professional and calming presence. I knew immediately I was in great hands. After surgery he even came out to speak with my driver. Dr. Pace also has an amazing technique with wisdom teeth. I have yet to experience much pain and I did have one impacted. I hope that I will never have to see him again for extractions but I will definitely recommend everyone to him. Thank you for making such a nerve racking thing a not so scary one.

The doctor was great. But, they have been completely incompetent when dealing with my insurance, didn't provide the anesthesia codes upfront so insurance didn't cover it, then as a final insult they made the check for little money we got back out to my 12 year old daughter. Idiots...

Dr. Pace and his staff are both professional and efficient. Dr. Pace listens and makes recommendations, not one to do surgery right away.

Both of my children saw Dr. Pace for wisdom teeth removal and had an excellent experience. ALL the staff was extrememly personable and caring! They eased any nerves and along with leaving detailed post op instructions Dr. Pace called himself both times to make sure everything was fine and there were no further questions.

All options for the dental surgery was explained by Dr. Pace, and I was able to choose the best procedure for me. There wasn't hardly any pain/discomfort after the extraction, which makes me believe his dental skills are very, very good. Yes I would recommend Dr. Pace to others and I will request to see him for any additional teeth problems.
