There are not enough wonderful things that I can say about Dr. Puckett and his staff. I have extreme anxiety and the fact that I got to the office is a testament to the lovely ladies on staff who calmed my fears. Dr. P came in and calmed me even more. I couldn't believe that a place this professional AND so well trained existed. It made having to go back for a different issue so much easier. He was so understanding about our financial situation as well. I will never go anywhere else and I refer people to him any chance that I get. Thank you so much. All of you are golden in my book. God bless you!!

If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would. The staff and dentist is beyond amazing. They are quick to get you in and have excellent service. I had 3 teeth extracted from here in May and ended up taking my 3 yr old son here today. They did a great job with him. He was not having it but they got him done quick and easy. And they tried hard to make him feel good about it. Thank you again to all the staff and wonderful Dentist.

I had my consultation back in November with Dr. Puckett to have my wisdom teeth removed and he and his staff was so friendly and funny. They explained everything so well. Dr. Puckett even sent me home with the prescriptions orders to get my painkillers ahead of time. When the day of surgery came they took good care of me. They sent me home with a couple sets of ice packs and something to put them in that I could wrap around my head. Someone left a picture of what this looks like in their review. They'll also send you home with a gel to put in your sockets to prevent dry socket. My recovery was pretty smooth overall. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to have their wisdom teeth removed!

Just a shout out to Dr. Puckett and his staff... As an employee at the local cancer center, the oncologists and staff here have been so grateful for his kindness and compassion in taking on our low income patients and assuring that they have dental care and clearance prior to starting cancer treatments. He has showed kindness and compassion at his own personal financial loss to assure that the most ailing members of our community can get the care they so urgently need. He is not just a wonderful oral surgeon, but an angel on earth to our most desperate patients.

Dr. Puckett and his staff are absolutely amazing! From the consultation, to the actual surgery, and with the financial side of things everything was absolutely perfect. I was terrified to have this procedure done, but my dentist said I needed to have my wisdom teeth extracted. I had heard so many great things about Wilmington Oral Surgery and Dr. Puckett that I decided to go and have a consultation. I even went out of network to go here and I am soooo happy that I did bc my experience was better than I ever could have imagined! I had to have all 4 wisdom teeth removed and I am telling you that I had ZERO PAIN during the procedure and ZERO PAIN during recovery. I healed quickly and never had to use the prescription pain medicines that they give you. If you are looking for an oral surgeon Dr. Puckett is the one!

I had my wisdom teeth removed, a couple days ago, and the recovery has went so much better than I've expected. Virtually zero pain whatsoever. Dr. Puckett and his staff are so kind, and make your experience so comfortable and smooth. I definitely recommend having Dr. Puckett remove your teeth, he knows what he is doing.

I have had a lot of issues with Dentists in the past few years, to say I was initially less than thrilled to go to another. But Dr. Puckett really turned it around in the consultation, he listened to me about my chronic illness, my concerns about my healing process, and assured me that nobody would be taking my teeth home but me if I asked for them (I know it's silly but I had a dentist demand my extracted tooth once). I could not be more happy with the professional and calm nature of not only Dr. Puckett but his entire staff. I have no fears when getting my teeth extracted tomorrow!

I'm so thankful for Dr. Puckett and his amazing staff. My 10 year old needed to have several baby teeth and one adult tooth removed, and after having been given the runaround for *months* from another oral surgeon's office (only to find they were ultimately shutting down) Dr. Puckett's office got us in quickly, and we were able to get my son's surgery scheduled very quickly, as well. My son, who is terrified of dentists, was completely comfortable with Dr. Puckett and his staff. Dr. Puckett had him laughing and at ease 60 seconds into his first visit. My son's surgery was completed this morning, and he barely had any nervousness at all walking into the office today. For a child who previously panicked at the word "dentist", that's pretty incredible, and is further proof of how comfortable my son felt there after only one visit. Thirty minutes later, they were bringing him out of surgery, a little groggy, but in great shape. Thank you so much, Dr. Puckett, Rebecca, Kelsie, and to all the other staff who took such fantastic care of my son and put my worries at ease.

This is for anyone with extreme anxiety and is feeling anxious about getting their wisdom teeth removed. I have extreme anxiety and almost chickened out. Never been under before. The doctor and his team made me very comfortable and it was over in what felt like seconds. Overall a fantastic job by the whole team. Thank you all very much.

I would give Dr. Puckett and Staff a 10 Star rating if I could. Most pleasant experience ever! Staff is so so nice and you can tell they love their job. They are organized, thorough and professional. I remember Doc making me laugh while putting my IV in ( sedation) and him asking what my favorite pasta is and then I woke up ready to go home. So happy today was a good day! Thank you doc & staff.
