Can't recommend them enough! After a fast moving tooth infection in a front tooth I was told I needed an extraction, bone graft and implant... and I was totally terrfied lol. Dr. Vakkas was fantastic though and he's a total expert at what he does, I shouldn't have been worried at all. I also have to say all the surgery assistants and receptionists were very nice and reassuring too!
My first surgery was the extraction and bone graft and I opted for numbing injections. I didn't feel the tooth come out at all and then the graft was done and stitched up in just a few minutes. The aftercare instructions were very helpful and I had no pain afterwards. Three months later I had my implant placed and aside from some intense drilling it was another quick and painless procedure. Recovery was even smoother and I was back to normal after a day. Three months after that I was just cleared for my crown and I'm excited to have a tooth again! My only regret is buying a temporary flipper because it was expensive and I only wore it one time. Hopefully I never need to have oral surgery again but if I do I will definitely come back here!

Dr Kim is amazing!! I had such anxiety about my extraction!! Being a former dental and oral surgery assistant, I’ve seen worst case scenarios. He was easy going and had a calming voice. I was numb and extraction done in no time!! I couldn’t believe it when he said, “it’s out.” If you have anxiety about oral surgery…Dr Kim is your man!! His staff is very friendly as well…a great practice indeed!!

I was referred to Lititz Oral Surgery by my Dentist for Extraction of Wisdom Teeth. I had my evaluation on a Monday and by that Friday my procedure was done. All I remember was going in, getting hooked to a Vital Machine and then waking up walking to my car. It was a quick and painless experience. I recommend this facility to anyone who needs to get mouth work done. The facility is a very clean and organized, the staff are very welcoming , friendly, and professional. I had a wonderful experience 😊

This place deserves 10 stars. I’m never changing this review. The care I got from Doctor Vakkas and Kristin was all love and support. This place not only did great but they accommodated my mental health. Also Dr. Vakkas manager is sooooo nice. She cares tremendously about people. If you need any oral surgery, request referrals to here. Trust me I’m a bad and strict reviewer. Only 2 places on Google have 5 stars from me and Litiz Oral Surgery in Hershey is one of the two. I hope there business booms!

My regular dentist referred me to Lititz Oral Surgery due to an upcoming tooth extraction. The procedure went extremely smoothly and quickly! The dentist and the assistants were very friendly and caring professionals! They made me feel at ease when having the IV. I highly recommend Lititz Oral Surgery!
