Our 13-year-old son had an impacted adult canine tooth that stubbornly wouldn't move into place. We were told to see an oral surgeon for an "extract and bond", a process we had never heard of. Dr. Murphy met with us for a consultation a few weeks before the procedure to calm my mama nerves and explained that he does this procedure multiple times a week. The day of the surgery, the girls in the front office could tell our son was nervous and immediately started reassuring him. Right before the surgery, Dr. Murphy took the time to go over all the details with our anxious son so that he would know exactly what to expect. Dr. Murphy was patient, kind, and very calm as he answered our son's questions and eased his nerves. The surgery was smooth and the recovery was far easier than I imagined, thanks in large part to the supplies and detailed checklist they sent home with us. We will certainly be back to Dr. Murphy when our kids inevitably need their wisdom teeth extracted in the coming years!

My daughter had her wisdom teeth extracted last month by Dr. Murphy. We highly recommend him and his whole staff! They all were very kind and supportive. They went over the procedure and all the aftercare beforehand and sent us home with all the information needed for the days and weeks following. We greatly appreciated it!! 馃檪馃檪

The whole team is wonderful! From the girls at the front desk to the dental assistants to Dr. Murphy! They made my 13 year old son feel comfortable from the first appointment! Dr. Murphy explains everything to you very friendly and professional. My son had 8 teeth extracted and he was doing great by day 2. I attribute his fast healing to Dr. Murphy and his medical team for doing such a great job! Hopefully he doesn't need another oral surgery, but if he does, we will return to Dr. Murphy! Thank you for taking such great care with Logan!

I had a great experience getting my wisdom teeth extracted here. Dr. Murphy took his time answering all of my questions and explained every step of the process in great detail. The surgery itself went incredibly smooth and I鈥檓 happy to say I had no pain or complications afterwards. Everyone was kind, patient, and very comforting throughout the entire visit which made the experience easy and manageable. I鈥檓 grateful for the care I received and would highly recommend Dr. Murphy to anyone needing oral surgery.
