The Center for Jaw and Facial Surgery, P.C.

Absolute worst place to go. I have no idea how he is still practice after reading reviews and talking to others. I am completely mind blown. I went in yesterday to have two teeth removed. I waited for an hour and was called into the room. Which I did not feel was clean. Chairs were nasty and had garage lamps plugged in sitting on the floor in the corners. That alone made me nervous. The nurse came in put my pulse ox on, blood pressure cuff, and then the doctor came in. She put the gas on me and the doctor told me to open my mouth and started. I told him I was scared he said he wasn’t why was I.

I asked if it was going to hurt he said it wasn’t going to hurt him. He put a shot in and I flenched. I was completely caught off guard. I thought he was going to explain the process or let the gas kick in or even just tell me before he started sticking me with shots. Which none of those things happened. I He threw the shot into the tray and said “I’m not doing this. Your done. ” Then walked out. The nurse tried to reassure me then also walked out. They left me in the chair for a few minutes before another nurse came in and tried to talk me into being out to sleep for him to preform the same service. Absolutely not!! This dentist has major anger issues.

I have no idea why people are going to him. I had an infection I was hospitalized for and needed in right away this is where my dentist could get me in. This happened yesterday and I have since talked to three people about my experience and they all had bad experiences with this dentist. I wish I would’ve asked around and read reviews before I wasn’t my day there. I waited until today to leave a review because luckily enough my dentist called another oral surgeon in effingham and they just had a opening for the next day. I went in at 9:50 they had me in a room by 10:10. Explained everything, super kind, great bed side manner, professional, and just all around amazing. Absolutely no pain start to finish. Like I said I have no idea why people are going to this place. Make the extra drive, pay the extra money, wait the extra day. Nothing is worth the trauma this will put you through

I've had all 4 wisdom teeth out over 1 to 1. 5 years. People on here say he's rude with no bedside manner. He made me laugh every visit. Took no longer than an hr from walking in the building to walking out to my ride. Each time, including when he took two out at once it didn't take him more than entire song on the radio to finish.

He gets in gets the job done and moves on. He had rooms full and 5 People in his lobby when I got here at 10 and by 11 he had an empty lobby and half his rooms full. You want someone to get ur teeth out fast and done right he's the right choice. He's one of, if not only, facial surgeon around effingham. U want someone to be nice and hold ur hand go elsewhere want someone to get the job done and have u home within an hr? Come here.

I will say they were very busy and I had a long wait time. However, it has been only 3 days and I still feel no pain. The stitches already came out and I had little to no bleeding after my extraction. He was quick with the procedure and I didn't even realize he had finished. Best and fastest extraction I have ever had done. The staff was friendly and nice during registration and waiting.

Terrible experience. Came in room screaming about he does not practice some type of dentistry. Would not listen to my story. He just kept on yelling and pacing. I needed a tooth pulled. He yelled twice open your mouth.

I thought he was going to hit me with the instrument to remove tooth. So I let him pull tooth. When he yanked the tooth, I felt like I was going to fly off the chair. A total disaster and tears.
