Had an amazing experience here! I had a wisdom tooth causing pain, Dr. Breese and his team got me in same-day for a consultation and were able to do an extraction the next day. Procedure itself was very quick and through; I was in and out of the chair in maybe 10 minutes total. Post-op instructions and care were clear; Dr. Breese even personally called me the evening of extraction to check in on my recovery. Insurance coverage and total cost were explained up front and pricing was quite reasonable. Highly recommend!

Amazing experience with Dr. Breese and his staff! My husband and I both had implants done and we felt very well taken care of by both Dr. Breeze and his entire staff. He is very skilled, patient, and kind. He put us at ease almost immediately and there was very little pain associated with the procedure. I would highly recommend this practice for anyone wanting exemplary, compassionate care.

Dr. Breese is great! Him and his team took care of me when I needed to get my wisdom teeth pulled out. I’m a naturally anxious person, while I was having my procedure I almost panicked but he gave me time and breaks to recover until I felt better. He talked me through the whole thing and made sure I was ok. He played The Weeknd for me so I was happy. He explained the preparation for the procedure and everything for the healing process afterword. He made sure I understood what was happening and felt comfortable, I appreciate that a lot. He also answered all my questions and concerns. My brother was also a patient of his and Dr Breese took great care of him! It’s expensive but worth it! I feel like Dr Breese and his team really care about their patients. :)

Fantastic service. Dr. Breese and his staff are super professional and make you feel right at home; always greeting you with a smile and making sure you’re comfortable the whole time you’re in their presence. They take an anxiety inducing situation and turn it into a pleasant experience. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Breese to all of my family and friends.

I greatly recommend this place. First of all, the staff are very welcoming and very kind. Dr. Breese takes his time to explain to you EVERYTHING you need to know. Above all, he did an amazing job taking out all 4 of my wisdom teeth! My cheeks were not puffy at all. My recovery was smooth!

About Carlsbad Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
Carlsbad Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery is an oral surgery practice located at 1289 Carlsbad Village Drive in Carlsbad, California, and it also serves patients from nearby Oceanside, Vista, Encinitas, San Marcos, Solana Beach, and Fallbrook. The practice describes itself as focused on oral surgery and dental implants, with care ranging from wisdom tooth removal to corrective jaw surgery. Dental implant treatment covers the full range, from replacing a single missing tooth to options for patients missing all of their upper or lower teeth, including implant supported overdentures and what the practice calls Teeth-in-a-Day implants for patients who meet specific criteria.
Because many implant patients need to rebuild jawbone first, the practice performs both simple and advanced bone grafting, including ridge augmentation, sinus lifts, and socket preservation, and it states that it uses L-PRF, a product made from the patient's own blood, to support healing. Other services listed on the website include tooth extractions, exposure of impacted canines, oral pathology, jaw surgery, treatment of facial trauma and dental injuries, sleep apnea care, 3D imaging, and anesthesia. The practice notes that its team is trained in assisting with intravenous sedation and anesthesia in the office, and that opioid free recovery options are offered for surgical procedures. Dental implant placement is described as a team effort between the oral surgeon, who performs the implant surgery, and the patient's restorative dentist.
