Wisdom Teeth - Oral Surgeon Recs? Couldn’t find any related posts on this sub, so please drop your oral surgeon recommendations for wisdom tooth removal if you can!...

A little late on the reply but I got mine done by Stephen Skoly at Chapel View in Cranston. Some older short dude that was pretty nice and took out all 4 of my teeth in literally like 5 minutes with zero problems. He only prescribed ibuprofen but I haven’t heard of too many oral surgeons that prescribe anything like percs or vics anymore for wisdom teeth. Good luck!!!

Not wisdom tooth but I had a broken tooth extracted at Perfect Smiles in Seekonk. I was in and out of there in 20 minutes. Didn't feel a thing. I used to have horrible anxiety about going to the dentist but these guys are great. I'm going in for a crown tomorrow and actually looking forward to it.

I'd recommend Dr. Ray English in Warwick. He did my wisdom teeth years ago and I honestly had no pain by the next day. None of mine were impacted which I'm sure played a role but it was a very good experience.

Dr Dante Gulino in Westerly (Beach st) yanked mine out with minimal issues or pain. Granted they weren't severely impacted but he did a good job non the less.
The procedure went smoothly, except for the tooth that was swallowed. But that's one me- apparently I coughed (I don't remember- good drugs) as he was taking it out of my mouth and I bumped the tooth grabber thingy. The tooth dropped and down the hatch it went before he could react... When I came around he strongly advised a chest x-ray to confirm it's actually location but I figured if it was in my lungs, it'd hurt like hell when the drugs wore off and the roaring case of bacterial pneumonia would be a solid indicator of its presence in a lung.
Never came down with pneumonia, pretty sure I know exactly where it went in the end (wasn't interested in poking around with poop knife in the toilet).
