I would use Dr Esla again, if needed. Everyone was friendly and upbeat. I was having a tooth extraction and was a bit anxious. They made me feel comfortable and I experienced no pain at the time and very little pain since then. They gave me excellent instructions on post care and I have had no problems.

Dr Esla & staff were very kind to me, on the day of my procedure Dr Esla met with my Husband & I & explained everything beforehand, I was kept very comfortable, & everything went as planned with no problems, I would definitely recommend Dr Esla for any oral surgeries in the future.

The extraction was fast, painless and simple. The local anesthetic application was very painful. I felt that the doctor was miffed that I opted out of implants and bone grafts. I’m 64 and know many who became sick after implants and regretted them. My mouth is very painful and can’t imagine how much more painful it would be if I had the bone grafts done at the same time.

First time patient and I wa very impressed with how fast the check in process was. Literally 1-3 minute wait to get called back! My extraction was fast and I had no complaints or pain after. I was referred due to a breathing issue and that office as confident Dr Elsa could handle it. He definitely did!

I had 5 teeth removed here a week ago and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The whole team was incredibly friendly, caring, and made me feel completely at ease from start to finish. They explained everything clearly, checked on me often, and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. I was nervous going in, but they turned what could’ve been a stressful situation into something smooth and surprisingly easy. Recovery has gone great too. I’m truly grateful for their professionalism and kindness. Highly recommend!
