Had a tooth extraction, Dr. Keith did a great job. He was always explaining what was going to be happening. The support staff did a good job of letting me know how to care for the area and what to expect. All things considered, a very good experience.

I’ve needed a tooth pulled for several years. and kept putting it off. My experience at Ames Oral Surgeons made me wish I’d have done it sooner. From my first call to the procedure, the expierence was first class and professional. The front office ladies welcomed me and kept me informed, rescheduling around a snow storm with several calls. The dental assistants were kind and professional making the tooth extraction go smoothly. Keeping me informed every step along the way. Dr. Cho… I may never need another tooth pulled but if I do, Dr. Cho will do it. He kept me informed along the way, keeping me informed and explaining what was next. AND… Dr. Cho called me personally a few hours after the procedure to make sure. was doing ok. What Dr. does that? Dr. Cho, that’s who! All in all… Kudos to Ames Oral Surgery! They are the Best!

I am no stranger to Ames Oral Surgeon’s as I have had several implant procedures done by Dr. Kazwell. He and his staff are the best in the Midwest! They are professional, kind, and make you feel very welcome and comfortable. They truly care and it shows in their work. Wonderful experience and highly recommend them!!!

Dr. Kazwell was great at reassuring me and making me feel comfortable with the extraction I was about to have. After my last extraction I had real anxiety, because it didn't go so well. I had a great experience this time.

Best experience I could imagine while having a tooth extracted! Dr. Cho was amazing. I didn’t feel the needle at all while he was numbing my mouth. He was able to get the tooth out fast and I had minimal discomfort after the numbing wore off. All of the staff here are super friendly and knowledgeable. Great job all around!

Ames Oral Surgeons at 1212 Duff Avenue in Ames, Iowa is the Ames office of Iowa Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons, PC, an oral surgery group that also serves patients from offices in West Des Moines, East Des Moines, Ankeny, Waukee, and Marshalltown. The practice focuses on oral and maxillofacial surgery, with dental implants as a core service. The practice's website explains that implant placement is a team effort between the oral surgeon, who performs the implant surgery, any needed tooth extractions, and bone grafting, and the patient's own restorative dentist, who fits and makes the final replacement teeth.
For patients replacing a single tooth, several teeth, or a full upper or lower arch, the practice describes options that include single stage implants, implant supported overdentures, and, in some situations, placing the implant at the same time as the tooth extraction. Bone grafting services such as sinus lift, ridge augmentation, and socket preservation are offered to help prepare the jaw for implants. Other services listed on the practice's site include wisdom teeth removal, tooth extractions, jaw surgery, facial trauma care, oral pathology, pre-prosthetic surgery, 3D imaging, and anesthesia. The practice states that its mission is to help patients live healthier lives in a caring environment where comfort and health come first. The Ames office can be reached at (515) 232-6830.

The practice's website notes that Dr. Jirsa is board-certified by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and completed a four-year oral and maxillofacial surgery residency at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, and that Dr. Keith completed his four-year oral and maxillofacial surgery residency at the University of Iowa Hospitals & Clinics.
