This is my second time with Dr Guorgui and his team. A year ago,I had my wisdom teeth extracted with IV sedation procedure. Recently I also had few other teeth extracted using sedation to help with my braces treatment. I had a relaxing,stress free experience on both occasions. Hands down the best surgical/ sedation dentistry team. They keep us well informed with the before and after care instructions which is followed up with a call from Dr Guorgui himself clarifying all concerns. The nurses are very helpful as well. Keep up the good work.

I had a tooth extraction with sedation a week ago and I was quite nervous about it. However everything went well and I didn't feel nervous at all after speaking with Dr Guorgui and his staff. They put me at ease. They were very professional, efficient and compassionate! I would definitely want Dr Guorgui and his team to look after me for any future dental work.

Super-flexible times, (even after 5PM on weekdays). Full service A+. Everytime I leave I have enough floss to mummify myself and other dental stationaries. I hope this office does NOT change it's staff or its culture. A+++.
