I've had an extraction done at the PCHC emergency dental clinic before and it was not a great experience. I fully expected a similar experience here, but boy was I wrong. The extraction itself took about 2 minutes, and it was over so quick I didn't even realize it had come out, I thought he was just switching tools! Everyone was kind and patient, the facility was beautiful, I hope i never need another extraction, but if I do, I'm coming back here!

Dr. Livingston and his team are AMAZING! They actually care about their patients and how they feel. Great choice in music while pulling teeth too! The way that they coordinate same day teeth after extractions with Bangor Denture is sooo great! 5 out of 5, highly recommended!

To be honest, I was a little nervous about getting a wisdom tooth pulled. My dentist recommended Dr Livingston at Twin Pines. The staff are very professional and friendly. The actual extraction took only seconds. I could not believe it was over so fast. Best of all, when the numbing agent wore off, a few hours later, there was virtually no pain. Just a touch of soreness around the injection sites but it was mild. If I could give Twin Pines Extraction 10 stars, I would.

I had a bottom wisdom tooth pulled this morning, the whole experience was amazing. I walked in with extreme anxiety as Ive never had an extraction before but the staff made sure I was comfortable the whole time. I didnt feel the extraction at all just the numbing shots but it wasn't unbearable just uncomfortable. Would definitely recommend and will be coming back in the future

If I could give this place 10 stars I truly would. I have suffered from tooth pain for years and have had so many bad experiences with dental extractions and by miles this was the best experience I have ever had. I walked in so anxious but the place didn’t feel sterile and scary it was warm and welcoming, they were very no b.s but as someone who has severe dental anxiety I felt completely confident that I was in good hands. The extraction was the most simple painless experience I’ve ever had. The Dr. truly is one of the best, the staff is amazing as well. Even gave me a stress ball! If you have any anxiety and not sure where to go this is the place!! Will not stop recommending.

Twin Pines Extraction and Denture Center is a dental office at 12 Stillwater Avenue, Suite 6, in Bangor, Maine, established in 2021. The practice focuses on a narrow set of services: removing damaged, decayed, infected, or broken teeth, preparing patients for dentures, and placing dental implants. On the implant side, the office offers implant retained dentures, where titanium implants are surgically placed in the jaw at strategic spots to hold a denture securely, as well as single tooth implants. The practice describes implant retained dentures as an option for patients whose dentures no longer stay in place or who are tired of relying on adhesives.
The office also provides immediate dentures and handles the steps needed to get a comfortable denture fit, including frenectomy (removing the band of tissue connecting the lip to the gums), bone smoothing surgery to remove excess bone growth, and implants to hold dentures in place. Every case is evaluated individually, and the practice notes that Dr. Livingston takes the time to determine how many implants a patient needs to properly support a denture. Twin Pines says it can get patients in quickly for extractions, works with referring doctors in the area, and aims to make patients feel comfortable and relaxed from start to finish.
The practice is led by Dr. Joseph Livingston, DDS. According to the practice website, Dr. Livingston served in the U.S. Army with the First Infantry Division from 2003 to 2008, including two tours in Iraq, then earned a bachelor's degree in Biology at Utah State University before completing his dental degree at Dalhousie Dental School in Halifax, Nova Scotia. He settled in central Maine after dental school and is raising a family there.
