My experience at this place was phenomenal! I had 4 very painful wisdom teeth that needed out ASAP. They got me in for my consult very quickly where I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Krueger. He was very kind and listened to my concerns during the consult. They were able to get me a price quote at that appointment(very reasonably priced) and schedule my extraction within a few weeks! They were very thorough with their pre-extraction instructions. The day of the extraction I had the kindest surgical assistant who kindly talked me through everything because I was extremely nervous. She answered all of my questions, made me feel comfortable, and less nervous! Dr. Krueger did a great job and even called me later that night to make sure I was doing alright. I highly recommend this place š

I had my wisdom teeth removed (all 4) by Dr. Lenox. He was extremely helpful both before and after the procedure with any questions or concerns I had and made himself very available via phone.
The office staff was courteous and reassured me as best as they could when I was a bit nervous leading up to going out.
Everything I needed was provided to me after the surgery including some smoothie gift cards. I really appreciate the effort that the clinic and Dr. Lenox seemed to give me specifically. My bottom teeth were impacted so the pain has been pretty bad at times, but I feel nothing on the top and would recommend Dr. Lenox to anyone needing to get their wisdom teeth removed. He did an excellent job and I really felt that he cared about how I was feeling even after I left.

Iāve had a bad experience with having a cyst from my jaw removed while living in the Midwest. The cyst recurred and I needed a revision - I was terrified.
Dr. Lenox took great care and time to explain the issue, and review surgery options from a best and worst case perspective. He took time, and I felt he was very thorough and thoughtful in his approach.
The day of surgery went very smooth. I was scheduled for deep sedation. I have tough veins, but the IV went in smoothly. I remember very little of the procedure; parts of the conversation and the background music. I felt calm and had absolutely no pain. Recovery was a breeze and there was barely any swelling or bruising. Post op visit was quick and informative as well.
Dr. Lenox and his team were extremely competent and compassionate in all interactions I had - Iād highly recommend this practice!

A recent trip to urgent care brought to light that I had an abscess and needed surgery fairly quickly. I was referred to Kruger and Lenox, and Iām very glad I went through with the surgery here. I have a severe phobia of the dentist, even at 23 years old I had a full fledged panic attack on my way to the consultation. The office is very warm and comforting, and the staff are all absolutely amazing. Before my appointment I was given all of my estimated out of pocket costs, which were extremely reasonable considering I was being put under. I had surgery today and I would just like to thank all of the staff for being so kind and understanding and for putting me at ease as best they could. Dr. Lenox explained everything that would be happening during the procedure in a way that was comforting rather than terrifying. I still hate the dentist, but I would completely recommend Kruger and Lenox and I plan on coming here for any future procedures.

Was in pain with a broken bottom wisdom tooth and needed it cut out by an oral surgeon.I called around for an appointment and his staff was able to get me in the next day for a consult and the next day to get it pulled. I was a nervous wreck because I fear āthe Dentistā but the whole staff was awesome and sweet! Dr Petersen and his assistant instantly made me feel comfortable and showed me they cared! It was the best experience Iāve ever had at a dentist office! Dr Petersen is The BEST!!

About Ridgeline Oral Surgery & Implants
Ridgeline Oral Surgery & Implants is an oral and maxillofacial surgery practice located at 1475 Southwest Chandler Avenue in Bend, Oregon, serving patients throughout Bend, Redmond, and the surrounding Central Oregon communities. The practice, formerly known as Krueger & Lenox Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, offers a full range of implant based tooth replacement options, including single implants and full arch solutions such as All on 4 treatment for patients missing some or all of their teeth. The team also provides bone grafting, wisdom tooth removal, and other oral surgery procedures alongside dental implant care, giving patients a single practice for both the surgical placement and supporting procedures their treatment may require.
Patients considering dental implants can expect a consultation focused on their specific needs, since treatment for a single missing tooth looks very different from treatment for a full mouth restoration. The West Bend office is one of the practice's three Central Oregon locations, making it a convenient option for patients on the west side of Bend as well as those traveling in from nearby towns. Reviewers have noted a welcoming, professional staff and clear communication from the surgical team before and after procedures, which can help ease the natural nervousness that comes with any surgical dental treatment.
