Excellent care for my well being on my extraction, Dr. Norloff was very thorough with my care. Everyone in the office was very nice.

Got my wisdom teeth taken out here , and from the consultation up to surgery day. All the staff was very nice, the front desk workers and dental assistants were very sweet . And the Dr himself was very efficient and answered all my questions . I really appreciate everyone because I've had other consultations in the area and never went back to due to lack of professionalism. So thank you to everyone at total bite! For making my experience enjoyable! Hugh recommend to anyone that needs work done read more

My experience with Dr. Herrera's office has been excellent, for the initial consultation to the surgery today. Dr. Nordloff performed my surgery; during the consultation at the Watsonville office, he took the time to answer my questions, explain his recommendations and treatment plan, and then go over the timeline for recovery and future procedures I need. When I arrived for my surgery this morning at the Salinas office, the atmosphere was quiet and relaxed. The staff was welcoming and professional, and Dr. Nordloff was again very clear and attentive to my comfort and questions. The surgery was painless and faster than I expected. I was provided with instructions, ice packs, and information about my prescriptions. I would recommend Dr. Herrera and Dr. Nordloff to anyone in need of oral surgery or dental implants. read more

If you need an oral surgeon, Dr.Herrera is the best for many reasons. His staff is excellent in the TLC area ( blanket, headphones, explanations, calling home to make sure I was ok or had questions). He is a genius at making procedures almost painless. He is kind and caring, though serious at first. When there was a concern a week after a procedure, they got me in and checked it out and took care of the situation . I have had many experiences with him and am so glad I found him and his office and surgery staff. Definitely A plus rating!!!! Also, Santa Cruz, Watsonville and Salinas locations. read more

From my consultation with Dr. Nordloff, to my procedure on Friday, everything went very smoothly in explaining what would occur. The staff are very professional and pleasant. I was a little apprehensive about having the work done as I have had very little dental work like this done. From the onset when I was being put under, I felt somewhat relaxed and then do not remember anything after that. Thank goodness... Thank you to all of your staff and especially Dr. Nordloff for his expertise in dental surgery. read more

Got my wisdom teeth extracted as an emergency today. I'm terrified of dentist and have horrible anxiety. I informed the staff and doctor. They were very understanding, supportive and reassuring.

Everyone was great. read more

My dentist was wonderful. Pulled 2 teeth and he was very gentle , called 2 times to check up on me.

Had a 6 month follow up from a tooth extraction and bone graft. I received a CT scan to tell me if I had enough bone for an implant in my back molar. I usually have anxiety with appointments for procedures - I worry about not fully understanding what I am getting into. Dr. Herrera was very thorough in his explanation of the implant procedure for the length of bone I had, and was good at answering any questions I had. My appointment was at 2, and I was done by 2:30. My past extraction by Dr. Herrera was also very quick and painless, thanks to his skill and local anesthesia. I was referred by Dr. Amy Do Family Dentistry and have Guardian insurance. read more

After years of searching for a Dentist that could perform Zygomatic Implants on me so I could finally have Upper Fixed teeth. This place is Amazing!!! From the Staff to all the Assistants and mainly to Dr. Herrera who was amazing at explaining the whole procedure and costs to me.

And these are just the Temps, after all the healing is done, (several months) I'll go back for my Permanent Zirconia upper and lower teeth, that will last me for Life!! Thank You Dr. Herrera!!!

I hate going to the dentist. Period. And COVID was the perfect excuse to NOT go. But I knew I was having issues with some teeth, molars to be specific. I finally had to pay attention when a tooth finally cracked and came apart. I wish I'd have been smart enough to have known that was good enough reason to go to an oral surgeon, but I put things off, located a local DDS and got in about two months after the first cracked tooth. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Herrera and his staff. Professional, patient, kind. After my first visit (a month after the DDS visit), they scrambled to get me into surgery before my insurance expired. A little over a month later--today-- my long-overdue dental issues were dealt with, a little over a week after the tooth finally broke all the way, now probably making its removal a little less fun. We agreed to go with IV sedation, I admit I was concerned when the drug of choice wasn't propofol. But it turned out better! I'm a difficult IV stick. Dr. Herrera got me in one poke. I was given a little nitrous oxide to take the edge off (wasn't sure if I was feeling it), and as the staff drew up the other meds, I remember thinking 2.5 mg of Versed isn't gonna get the job done. A few minutes the dose was repeated. Still didn't think I was loopy enough to sit through this. The last things I remember are a bite block (not painful), someone saying "ketamine," feeling a poke in the jaw--and then goodbye. The pain isn't yet horrible but the local hasn't worn off. I'm taking the meds he routinely prescribed for patient comfort. I believe I am well-prepared for my aftercare, for complications to look for and to expect for tomorrow to be a little rough. Probably one of the most thoughtful post-procedures after-care things they do for you is give you two small cold packs that you can renew in your freezer. They are the perfect size to tuck onto your face/lower jaw. Dr. Herrera placed two bone grafts (removed three teeth) in preparation for dental implants as soon as we can accomplish them. I have already recommended Dr. Herrera to family members in need of dental surgery. I wouldn't hesitate to use his services again if I had to (nothing personal, I hope I keep the rest of my teeth!) read more

I had the "A-Team" of care! The doctor and all the staff and the nurses put me at ease and took excellent care of me as I was an emotional wreck from a lot of dental PTSD. Had my surgery three hours ago and I am doing great! I cannot thank them enough for their high-quality of care! my husband said the office staff was so easy to work with very friendly and very knowledgeable. Will be going back for any other future work I need done. read more

My doctor was did an amazing job from connecting with his patient to explaining the whole treatment that I received. Should I ever need another service her you bet I coming back. Thank you for everything. Also I didn't add any pictures but take my world the place is very clean and aesthetically pleasing. read more
