This was my first time seeing Dr. Christopher Ban for a tooth extraction and he was wonderful. He. Has excellent bedside manner, explains every step of the process before and during the procedure, and was able to quickly and comfortably complete the extraction. A huge plus was his dental hygienist was the sweetest woman. She reassured me and checked on me throughout the procedure. I am 4 days post extraction and I had very little pain and swelling. Great experience overall. Highly recommended!

I am so happy I chose Dr. Ban to place two implants on the upper right I believe tooth 2 and 3. He completed the uncovering a couple weeks ago. He is very kind and let me know what he was doing every step of the way. I had never had implants before so I really has a lot of anxiety about them. I spoke to the office about that prior and a script was available to calm my nerves. The entire team was professional, courteous, caring and friendly.
I definately recommend Dr. Ban for imll pl ants and should I need extractions or implants in the future he will be the Oral Surgeon I will go to.
Thanks so much. Off to get these implants crowned, that appointment is already set up with my dentist.
Again thank you Dr. Ban!

My daughter had her wisdom teeth removed yesterday and was understandably very nervous beforehand. The entire experience went incredibly smoothly. The surgeon and staff were professional, kind, and reassuring throughout the process. So far, she has had minimal swelling and pain鈥攎uch less than we anticipated. She says she would highly recommend this oral surgeon! 馃槉

I have been going to Dr Ban for years, both for myself and my family. Two of my children had wisdom teeth removed. As of this writing he has placed 4 implants ( the first about 10 years ago the last 3 days ago). I have never had any issues with the placement, stregnth or quality of his work. I recently had 2 extractions . He and his staff made it as painless as possible. I highly recommend the Ross Township location. I havent been to the Beaver location but that office has been very professional when I call.
