Wisdom Teeth

What are wisdom teeth?

Third molars are commonly referred to as wisdom teeth. They are usually the last teeth to develop and are located in the back of your mouth, behind your second molars. Their development is usually completed between the middle teenage years and early twenties, a time traditionally associated with the onset of maturity and the attainment of wisdom.

The whole experience was one of a kind. I heard how bad it is to get your wisdom tooth pulled and the staff and the DR made it a walk in park. I was talking to them through the who procedure.

The staff was very sweet and efficient, they scheduled my appointment as soon as possible and they were able to make my visit very comfortable. I'm very anxious when it comes to dental appointments but they were very nice and I don't even remember a thing after surgery. I felt no pain at all after surgery, the doctor did an amazing job.

The staff is amazing the office is great if it wasn’t for the doctor and his pathetic bedside manner and the fact that he completely insulted me then I would recommend 100%. But because of him I will not recommend nor return

I was not happy when my child was not given ample time to rest before release. It made it difficult to walk home when still under anesthesia.

Overall we had a good experience,the doctors were friendly and the place is so clean and very professional. The only issue I had was when right after my daughter came out of anaesthesia the nurse seemed very inconsiderate to the fact my daughter was all drugged up. My daughter was whimpering , crying and tried her hardest to stay awake and the nurse kept saying "don't cry and don't fall asleep" in a very rude tone. I personally felt like she was being very passive aggressive but I didn't want to confront her or say anything because my daughter just needed to go home.

Dr. Shen was great - very clear with instructions and caring with my son's first surgery (wisdom tooth extraction). He even called the evening after the surgery to check on him and answer any questions. We really appreciate how thorough and caring he is!
