Overall my wisdom tooth extraction went by very quickly and Dr. Ali made sure it was as quick and painless as possible. I was very reassured and cared for during the whole procedure. My plasma tasted awful but I hope it works well to heal me. Financial cuts in my bill were very helpful as well. Thanks Dr. Ali!…

“Great service at Dr. Ali's office”
I'm 16 years old. I came to Dr. Ali's office a week ago to get my wisdom teeth removed. Months prior to my visit, my gums near my molars had become painful to brush. I couldn't wait any longer to get treatment, and upon examination, Dr. Ali discovered that my wisdom teeth were impacted and needed to be removed.
The surgery was very easy for me. Dr. Ali and his employees were very kind and did all they could to make my experience as pleasant as possible. I was put under sedation and woke up a few hours later when Dr. Ali was finishing my final sutures. I didn't feel a thing. In addition, prior to my surgery, Dr. Ali had extracted blood from my arm (to fill the holes) and added growth hormones to speed up the healing process. This step was extremely helpful-- for only three days, I had to control my pain and watch what I was eating. After that, however, I was able to return to my normal eating routine.
Prior to my appointment, my friends had told me their share of scary wisdom teeth removal stories, and I wasn't sure what to expect. Luckily for me, it took less than a week for my mouth to feel normal again, and as of now my stitches are gradually falling out. As far as I'm concerned, my healing process is nearly over. All in all, the service offered at this dental office is excellent, and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking treatment.

“GIFTED!”
It was the amazing staff and the wonderful service... it was the flexible hours and th great location... but most important, it was the way Dr. Ali fixed what the other well meaning but talentless BUTCHER did with my mouth. I am a person who smiles a LOT. I am so incredibly happy a co worker recommended Dr. Ali's office to me! He is an absolute genius! Very good looking staff as well!!
