No one wants to have a tooth extracted, but I had to, and I found Dr. Chen and his staff to be an excellent provider of care. He and his staff are very professional. Dr. Chen is sure of himself, but yet very gentle. Dr. Chen is my new dentist of choice! Dr. Chen explained the procedure thoroughly and talked to me about replacement options he could provide once the gum and bone healed. He sensed my anxiety and offered me nitrous and music to enjoy during the procedure. Although, I had never had nitrous before, I accepted because I was quite nervous. I had a menu of music to choose from and headphones to enjoy. His assistant started the nitrous and music selection about 10 minutes before the procedure. After about 3 min I didn’t have a care in the world. While Dr. Chen extracted my tooth, I was laying on the beach with a refreshing drink in hand, so I felt :). The procedure went swiftly, without pain or agony, and I was on my way in no time. Dr. Chen even gave me a surprise call the next morning to check on my condition, and to see if I had any questions. It's been one now, and my gum is closed and healing well. You won’t be disappointed! Thank you Dr. Chen & Staff!
