Center For Oral And Maxillofacial Surgery

They were horribly unsympathetic to health issues that made fasting for the anesthetic sedation for 6 hours until we'll after lunch nearly impossible, and that was just the start of the problem. When I arrived, they were nearly 20 minutes late for the consult, which would've meant more time in the am to eat before I had to fast instead of getting up at 5 am to choke down food. The staff didn't want to answer any of my questions at the consult, promising to answer them when I woke up, and they had us make a deposit instead of billing us for the total once insurance fclaims were file, which I was not told about ahead. It was not a small deposit. After surgery for the wisdom tooth removal, they handed off a sheet of generic instructions and packed me into the car with my husband while I was still too out of it to ask questions. They didn't answer any questions about how to eat and care for myself after the double extraction due to dietary restrictions that make eating the usual recovery… foods like eggs and beans for protein not an option. Since the surgery, I am now 8 days out and still in massive pain, pain that is new since the first three days of recovery, which were meant to be the worst. My dentist wanted me to see the surgeon for concerns of infection or drysocket. The surgeon's office insists it's normal and just said to use the antibacterial prescription mouthwash my dentist gave me pre procedure for a few days to see if it'll fix it. If not, all they're going to do is prescribe antibiotics without seeing me to confirm if they are the actual solution or if I have a dry socket and despite being told that antibiotics make me very sick. Needless to say, I do not recommend going here. They have not offered much support and seem to be doing whatever they can to avoid any follow up visit due to the persistent pain that has worsened instead of improving. Not professional at all.
