We had a fantastic experience from start to finish. My 11-year old had to have two “shark teeth” removed and she ended up having two wisdom teeth removed also. She was really scared. Dr. Kelson and his staff were steady and calming. When it was time for the procedure to start, she followed them without a glance back. When it was over, she was grumpy, but said she felt like only two minutes had passed. Their instructions for post-surgical care were easy and reassuring. I am thankful for how easy they made today.

I have taken both my kids to Dr. Kelson to have their wisdom teeth removed. Each time from the time I called the office to the time we left the staff was warm welcoming and made the entire experience smooth and easy. Both kids had good a good experience and healed beautifully. I highly recommend for any oral surgery needs.

Dr. Kelson and his staff are very professional, thoughtful, and kind. They explained everything thoroughly, eased any fears, and provided compassionate care. We have multiple family members that have had wisdom teeth extracted by Dr. Kelson over the years, and it has been an exceptionally great experience each time. From personal experience, we all recommend Dr. Kelson. Five shiny stars!

Had a great experience with everyone there, the communication before and after my extraction was wonderful! Dr Kelson made me feel very comfortable and did an outstanding job, the easiest dental work from start to finish I’ve ever had! Highly Recommend from someone who is not a fan of having dental work done!

Dr. Stephen Kelson is fantastic. My daughter had oral surgery and was very nervous about it and he made her and I feel very comfortable. The surgery went great and he followed up with us after to make sure she was doing okay and to check in. Everyone in their office is super nice and it was overall a great experience. They took great care of the both of us. Highly recommended! 10/10
