First, thank you Dr. Saltman and his team!!!
I got all four of my wisdom teeth removed during fall break of my first semester of law school, and Dr. Saltman made the procedure go so well it didn't affect my academics at all (the surgery was done Thursday morning and I was back to school Monday). Going under anesthesia makes me anxious, but Dr. Saltman calmed my nerves by listening to and validating my emotions. Furthermore, Dr. Saltman does an incredible job parsing down complex medical talk into digestible bits so that you can be be in control and a part of every step of the procedure. He will go above and beyond for his patients!!
Lastly, Dr. Saltman works alongside an incredible team. Every assistant or administrative person I interacted with were all knowledgeable, patient, and caring towards not only me throughout this process, but also to my family as they waited for me during the surgery.
This office is filled with classic rock and kind people; highly, highly, highly recommend!!!

I am deeply grateful to Dr. Saltman and his team. The front desk staff are skillful, supportive, and responsive, and I offer them my absolute highest praise. I first came in last year for an urgent visit, as an unopposed wisdom tooth was causing discomfort and showing signs of bacterial infection. The care I received was exceptional—thorough, attentive, and reassuring, especially given my older age. The anesthesia was excellent, but what stood out most was the doctor’s combination of technical mastery and a reassuringly gentle approach. That initial experience was so positive that I returned to have my remaining wisdom teeth extracted. I look forward to entrusting any future oral surgery needs to Dr. Saltman, and I give him my absolute highest praise for the skillful and deeply considerate care I have received.

I'm absolutely thrilled with the care I received from Dr. Saltman for my recent tooth extraction and dental implant.
From our first consultation, Dr. Saltman was all about patient education. He took the time to thoroughly explain every option and procedure, so I always knew exactly what to expect.
You can tell Dr. Saltman is truly passionate about his work, and he takes care to make sure he is getting as close to perfect results as he can get - not just "good enough". I healed very quickly from both procedures, which I credit to his skill. He also has a fantastic patient-first approach – he even sent me home with ice cream after my procedures, which was such a thoughtful touch.
Most importantly, the process was refreshingly price transparent. I never had to worry about hidden costs or surprises, which is a huge relief when getting dental work done. He made sure I was aware, with printouts, of the estimates from my very first consultation.
I highly recommend Dr. Saltman to anyone looking for exceptional oral surgery with a truly caring and professional team.

I could not possibly do justice to how wonderful Dr. Saltman has been. I came to his office with a complex issue related to a history of Lyme disease, and before the tooth extraction he performed for me, he even went as far as to contact my Lyme disease doctor to ensure that he had a perfect understanding of the case, and that he provided the best care and treatment plan. The extraction went flawlessly and he took the time to fully explain every step of the process to me. Dr. Saltman is both exceptionally kind and talented. Would recommend his office to anyone.

When my dentist recommended I have a wisdom tooth removed, I was not at all sure that was a good idea. But Dr. Saltman and his staff made me very comfortable and relaxed, and did an amazing job. The extraction was more difficult than he expected, but I had no complications or problems. He has a great gentle touch and a wonderful manner. I would strongly recommend him and his office for any procedures!
