This team was AMAZING! i had my wisdom tooth removed here. I was in and out with very minimal pain and I only had local anesthetic. I came in with anxiety as I had never had a tooth removed prior to my visit & they definitely made me feel at ease. I would 100% definitely recommend you get your tooth extractions addressed here if you ever need it!

About Upper Valley Oral Surgery
Upper Valley Oral Surgery is an oral and maxillofacial surgery practice with three New Hampshire offices, including this location at 110 Charlestown Road in Claremont, along with offices in West Lebanon and New London. The practice describes its focus as complex implant based oral reconstruction and single tooth implant replacements. Its dental implant services range from single implants and implant supported bridges to implant fixed dentures and implant supported dentures, and the practice also offers bone grafting procedures such as ridge augmentation, sinus lift, and socket preservation to prepare the jaw for implants.
Beyond implants, the surgeons perform a full range of tooth extractions, wisdom tooth removal, exposure of impacted teeth, and oral pathology evaluation, and the practice offers 3D imaging. Procedures can be performed under deep or light intravenous anesthesia and sedation so patients can rest comfortably during surgery, and the staff hold certifications from the American Heart Association and the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgical Assistants. Established in 1972, the practice states a patient first philosophy that extends from the first scheduled appointment through the post operative phone call and after care. The Claremont office notes that days and hours may vary, so patients are encouraged to call ahead for current availability.
