We have been harassing this office since JANUARY for the surgeon to fill out my boyfriend's…read morepaperwork for short term disability after his surgery. His job requires this paperwork to be filled out in its entirety, before he can return to work. There is a statute for this paperwork to be completed, and after this statute the FMLA is denied and he will be terminated for time missed. The surgeon is William Curtis, and he only works out of this office 1 day a week or less, and HE is the ONLY person who can fill out this paperwork. After finally getting this surgeon to fill out my boyfriend's FMLA paperwork, it was done INCORRECTLY and only signed 1 of the 3 papers needed for him to return to work. We have called, we have shown up to the office and cried in the lobby, we have done everything we can for these people to get this paperwork sorted out and are consistently given roundabout responses with no action. My boyfriend will be terminated from his position in 4 days, because of the negligence of the surgeon and the people working this office who are not making this an absolute priority. Real people trying to just pay their bills and survive will be severely impacted by the sheer unprofessionalism given from this practice. I've heard corporate dentistry is bad, but I am now learning first hand how they don't care about their patients in the chair, they only care about money in their pockets and insurance companies that pay the best. They got him in, extracted 7 of his teeth under general anesthesia, took our money, billed the insurance from our yearly max, and now my boyfriend will lose his job AND his insurance because they cannot simply fill out paperwork. If you want an office and surgeons who don't care about the livelihoods of their patients day to day, and who use AI to filter their calls, then by all means, this is the office for you. I have never been more disgusted with a health care practice in my whole life. Corporate dentistry does not care about your dental needs, your financial situation, or your fears of losing your career. If I could give zero stars I will, and I will be posting this review everywhere I possibly can.

It's was a pleasant experience. One of the ladies was playing country music while they were doing…read morethe procedure. I felt relaxed. Definitely will recommend Northern Nevada Oral.

Dr. Thomas Melendrez is hands down the best oral surgeon in Reno. His team at Silver State Oral &…read moreMaxillofacial Surgery has been great to work with. From the moment I called in, the staff was professional, welcoming and extremely organized. They made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Pricing was transparent and explained very well. Dr. Melendrez took the time to clearly explain the tooth extraction procedure, implant procedure and answered all of my questions. He made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. His expertise and calm demeanor really stood out to me. The procedures themselves were much easier than I thought they would be. My recovery was quicker than I expected too! The entire team genuinely cares about their patients and goes above and beyond to provide excellent care. If you're looking for a skilled oral surgeon with an outstanding staff, I highly recommend Dr. Melendrez and Silver State Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. He also did both of my kids wisdom Teeth years ago and did an excellent job with them as well!

I always get anxious before seeing a dentist. Dr. Melendrez was referred to me by an endodontist…read morefor an extraction, bone graft and implant. The office staff was so pleasant and professional. They answered all my questions and was so patient with me. The oral surgery went better than I expected. I wasn't sedated since I didn't have anyone that could drive me home afterwards. I decided on nitrous oxide to reduce the anxiety and fear. Dr. Melendrez gave me the novocaine and stayed in the room and chatted until it was time to get started. It was a very nice conversation and it put me at ease. He worked quick. The extraction and the bone graft took less than 15 minutes. There was barely any swelling or pain. I highly recommend Dr. Melendrez and his staff especially if you are anxious going to the dentist.
