I was given all the information about my tooth extraction with implant and so I was very prepared. I opted to just have the local novacaine and Dr. Bulford talked to me through the procedure and was very calm and worked quickly which I appreciated. I would recommend him to anyone needing these kind of services. I felt safe and felt no pain throughout the procedure which was a bonus! Having a tooth extracted and implant placed is not generally a pleasant experience but Dr. Bulford made it easier than I thought!

Dr Bulford is a talented & excellent oral surgeon. My implant was placed in a relatively short pain-free visit with just mild discomfort after the procedure when the anesthesia wore off. I was very impressed with his technique and staff!

My oral surgery was nothing less than the best from the minute arrived. I followed the directions that were written down clearly and concisely for me to follow preop and postop. My med schedule worked fine swelling is minimal and used the cold pac per directions. There were no questions left unanswered. Just follow the instructions and know that you’re in expert hands. My sincere gratitude to Doctor Buford and his awesome staff.

Dr. Bulford and his team are truly exceptional. My granddaughter underwent the extraction of her four wisdom teeth, and Dr. Bulford personally informed me that everything went smoothly. The nurses provided excellent care to Hannah during her recovery, ensuring her comfort even as she was being placed in the car for the journey home. I cannot praise this office and Dr. Bulford enough - I wholeheartedly recommend them.
