Reviews

"After I badly fractured a tooth and lived with the pain for several days, I discussed my options with my dentist and endodontist. They both concluded that the best course of action was likely to have the tooth removed and replaced with an implant. They referred me to Dr. Delgado who graciously got me in right away. He, and importantly his staff, were unfailing generous with their time in explaining the process and performing the procedure. Dr Delgado performed the extraction expertly. It was quick and painless. I was stitched up and on my way home in about an hour. It’s now nearly 24 hours later and I’m pain free. I couldn’t have asked for anything more, and I look forward to working with his team on follow-up appointments to plan for the new implant."

"This is a great place to go for oral surgery. I needed a tooth extracted in preparation for a bridge, and Dr. Delgado was so kind, professional and honest with his evaluation of my tooth. His calm demeanor made me feel very comfortable, he communicated what he was doing as he worked, and he went to great lengths to make sure I was okay and without pain. Sue Lynn was an excellent assistant who was so friendly and compassionate; she also provided great tips and instructions for after care. This practice is outstanding, and I highly recommend them."

"This past Monday I was somewhat apprehensive about getting a 3-root molar extracted. I thank God for Dr. Delgado who, based on an x-ray from my regular dentist, confirmed that the tooth had to come out. He then masterfully applied a local anesthesia and in less than 15 minutes he removed the tooth. He said I would feel some pressure which I did but there was no pain. He was very reassuring that the procedure would go well, and it did. His assistant Sue Lynn then lovingly explained the post-surgery do's and don'ts and also gave me written instructions to take home. The front office staff was very nice and helpful. I highly recommend Dr. Delgado to anyone who needs oral surgery performed."
