I was a bit nervous about having all 4 wisdom teeth removed, plus a couple of torn from my lower jawbone, especially since so many people told me their stories of pain and being out of commission for several days. I didn't have to worry at all! Dr. Shaikh and the staff took good care of me, and I was back working the very next day. No pain, and barely any swelling. I highly recommend their practice. Thank you.
