I've had 2 tooth extractions done by Dr. Hoffman at Carbon Oral Surgery Associates and just have to say how painless and actually pleasant the experience was both times! He explains the process before doing anything, makes sure you're comfortable, and treats you like a person instead of just another job. The whole staff is friendly, caring, and accommodating. I definitely recommend this office if you need dental surgery.

I have had several visits with Dr. McLaughlin throughout the past several years and I would never go to anybody else! He is fantastic. He sits down and explains everything to you and doesn't rush you. He has an awesome sense of humor which makes the visit a little bit easier. I highly recommend him. The staff is amazing and very helpful too. Great experience all around.
I had to come back and edit this review a year later. I am going thru top denture process and this time I had Dr. Hoffman. He truly is a gem!!! Fantastic surgeon and I highly recommend him. He is very patient and has you feeling comfortable because his bedside manner is so pleasant. I loved both surgeons and have to throw in again how kind the front desk is. Wonderful place.

I don't often write reviews but in this case I felt it was extremely appropriate. About a month ago while flossing I pulled out an older filling. Within a few days I was at the dentist being recommended for a root canal. I decided that I would have the tooth extracted and get an implant instead. After a ton of research and calling multiple places I reached out to Carbon. This was the only company that took the time to discuss pricing, the process AND figured out how to get me in sooner. Yesterday I had my appointment. It was great I was in and out with no problems. As of this morning I noticed some discomfort and was dealing with some anxiety about the healing process. They had me come in and double checked my concerns. I am so grateful for the staff and look forward to continuing this process with Carbon

I got all 4 wisdom teeth pulled 1-29-2021 and had a great experience. I was very nervous going in but dr. Hoffman and his staff made me feel very comfortable and put my mind at ease with jokes and small talk. I would highly recommend this office for anyone looking to get oral surgery. They also called me to check up on me the day of surgery so 5 stars from me. Thank you carbon oral surgery and staff!

They brought me tears (of joy!!). Got me in to fix a broken molar - bringing pain like I’ve never felt before. The front office was so incredibly helpful and understanding!! And Dr Hoffman was quick and proficient. Educated me on the whole process, and his assistant was so attentive. Overall A+ service. Highly recommended
