I received the best care. I have no pain noticed. Dr Deathridge did a remarkable job. Surgical staph Tia and Lexi are quite the team. My questions were answered. There advice was greatly appreciated. Thank You Face and Jaw Surgery, Bismarck ND.

The receptionist I encountered was extremely unprofessional and dismissive during what was clearly a scheduling mix-up. Instead of helping resolve the issue, her tone and behavior escalated the situation and made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. In a medical setting especially a surgery center patients are often in a vulnerable position, and basic courtesy and respect should be the standard.

Came here to get 3 teeth taken out. Staff was very friendly and made me feel comfortable. Whole thing from them taking me to the back to telling me they were done was an hour if that.

Underwent an implant procedure on 21 November 2025. The procedure took about 30 minutes, maybe not even. Dr. Deathrage and his staff of four were aces; professional and very friendly. There was ABSOLUTELY NO pain during the procedure, the night of the procedure, or for the entire week after. Two more steps, the next in six months. I will try and remember to provide an update. So far, everything is great. I was impressed.

I couldn’t be more thankful to Bismarck Face &Jaw surgery center. Due to my pregnancy, other providers didn’t feel comfortable providing care to me or even let me come see them. When I called the surgery center, all staff were caring, kind and courteous and got me in quickly. They understood that despite my pregnancy, I still needed dental care and at least to be seen. I was so thankful to find a provider who didn’t just say nothing we can do. I’ve gotten to work with both doctors Dr. Miller and Dr. Knoll. Both took the time to answer all my questions and talked through risks and benefits, worked with my OB provider to ensure both baby and I were safe, received the best care and management. Dr. Knoll ensured the procedure was very well managed and I did not feel a bit of pain despite limited options of anesthesia or pain medications. Not only that, facility is great, clean and all staff courteous and kind. Highly recommend, best place in Bismarck!
