Dr. Shen and his staff did a fantastic job removing four wisdom teeth. I healed within a couple of weeks without issue. The staff provided excellent communication.

I honestly had a really good experience , I was super anxious and the assistant helped calm me down a bit (as much as she could) and the dr came in and put me to sleep right away , everything went smoothly and im healing really well.

Overall, a great experience today! My son was well taken care of by every staff member. The Dental Assistants working with Dr. Shen were both professional and compassionate. The office and clinical areas were spotless and well-organized. As a dental clinician myself, I was very impressed. Thank you again for taking such excellent care of my kiddo!

Extremely pleased with my recent procedure done at Bay State Oral Surgery. I had all 4 wisdom teeth extracted, and though I was nervous for the procedure, this office did well to ease my anxiety. The front desk staff are very responsive with questions over the phone and Deborah, the dental assistant, was thorough at explaining what to expect throughout the process and post procedure. Dr Shen never rushed through the consultation; and as someone who works in healthcare, I appreciated his honesty about the risks/benefits of the procedure. Dr Shen did an amazing job. I recommend Bay State for whoever is anxious about having this procedure done, as they will make this process a breeze. 馃檪

I had four wisdom teeth removed today. The receptionists, assistants, and the doctor were all fantastic. I was met with boundless kindness and comfort. The receptionist I spoke to was very helpful in getting me in for a consultation as soon possible as I was experiencing excruciating pain. Following the consultation, I was scheduled for my surgery the following week, and they even called to offer a sooner appointment which really helped me expedite the process. Dr. Shen is fantastic!!!! He is very humble and he really listens to what you have to say. Throughout the procedure he kept asking if I was comfortable or in pain. I can't imagine going anywhere else for oral surgery. I highly recommend this place

About Bay State Oral Surgery Associates
Bay State Oral Surgery Associates, Inc. is an oral surgery specialty practice at 9 Linden Street in Worcester, Massachusetts, dedicated exclusively to oral and maxillofacial surgery. Formerly known as Drs. Berg, Hirshberg and Halsband Inc., the practice describes itself as one of the most established oral surgery practices in the Worcester area. Its services range from routine tooth extractions and wisdom teeth removal to dental implants and bone grafting procedures, including ridge augmentation, sinus lift and socket preservation. For patients missing teeth, the practice offers implant placement for single teeth, options for those missing all upper or lower teeth, implant supported overdentures and a Teeth-in-an-Hour approach. The practice notes that Dr. Shen places single stage implants, which do not require a second procedure to uncover them, and that in some situations an implant can be placed at the same time as the tooth extraction.
The practice works as a team with each patient's primary dentist and other health professionals, with the oral surgeon performing the implant surgery, any needed extractions and bone grafting while the patient's own dentist makes the final replacement teeth. Several methods of anesthesia are available, and the office provides 3D imaging along with oral pathology, pre-prosthetic surgery and exposure of impacted teeth. The practice states its core values as professionalism, honesty, passion and empathy, and says its team has served the Worcester County area for more than 15 years. The office serves patients from Worcester, Shrewsbury, Holden, Grafton, Charlton, Auburn, Sturbridge and Paxton, and is open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm and Wednesday from 8:00 am to 12:30 pm.
