Hats off to Dr. Ding - the BEST BEST BEST oral surgeon IN THE WORLD! I was referred to Dr. Ding by my family dentist - Dr. Sura at Reveal Dental next door when I needed to remove 4 wisdom teeth and the other 4 regular teeth for my orthodontics treatment. If you go to Dr. Ding, I can 1 million percent guarantee you that you're in great hands and will have an awesome and painless experience. I came from Vietnam and had really bad and painful experience (even from cavity filling) with dentists there which has traumatized me until today. I came to Dr. Ding in Oct 2018 for a consultation when I knew that there might be a potential of removing 4 wisdom teeth. Dr. Ding's staff took my x-ray, and Dr. Ding explained everything very thoroughly. He dropped me a bomb (which I knew he would) that I had to let those 4 wisdom teeth go because they were impacted. My top ones came out in an angle leaning on my big molars. My bottom ones only peaked out of my gum for a little and they were sideway. He checked my nerves on the x-ray and said there was nothing to worry about since my nerves stayed low. One thing that gave me chills was that he would need to cut my gum open to remove the impacted bottom wisdom teeth because of the way they grew. That part freaked me out. I've never had anything cut open my whole life, and now I would have to do it in my mouth? I postponed the decision for a few months until my orthodontist told me that I really needed to let them go AS WELL AS additional 4 more to make sure for my teeth to straighten out. In mid May 2019 I was brave enough to come to Dr. Ding again and told him I was ready for the procedure and needed him to pull 4 more. He went through everything clearly and thoroughly with me again. I would be put to sleep through IV during the procedure, just so I could have the best and painless experience. He also warned me ahead of time that I would hate him for 2-3 days because my bottom wisdom teeth would be a bit difficult to take out, so I would expect to be sore a bit more. My appointment was at 7:30am and I was taken in right at 7:30am. The assistant got my blood pressure, put wires and stickers on my body to measure my breathing during my sleep. Dr. Ding waited no time to come in. He's also an expert in injecting IV. I just followed his instruction on how to release or hold my hand, and everything was in without me feeling a needle poking my skin. I was then immediately assisted with an oxygen mask. Dr. Ding then said something and before he finished his one sentence, I was knocked out around 7:40am. Then I heard people talking and tools being put away. An assistant asked if I was awake and the procedure was successfully done. I looked at the clock and it was 8:10am - it only took Dr. Ding 30 minutes or less to pull 8 teeth in one seating. Is he a superman?! I was then moved to the recovery room, still in and out of the other world. Dr. Ding went over my medicine with my husband, what I should and shouldn't do, and all that good stuff. I left the office 30 minutes later. Recovery: Painless and too good to be expected. Dr. Ding called me that afternoon to check I was doing, how the bleeding was, and how I felt. It was very nice thoughtful of him to do so. I already expected to be sore and uncomfortable for 2-3 days as he warned me, but I was not sore at all. My cheeks did not even swell, I didn't get to look like a chipmunk. People couldn't tell that I got the procedure done from just looking at me or talking to me. I stayed on the prescribed Ibuprofen and only took the strong pain killers on the day of the procedure just to calm it down after the anesthesia wore off. Other than that, I still have a full bottle of the strong pain killers. The most important thing is to follow his instructions very carefully and everything will be just fine. Post-op follow-up: One week after the procedure, I came back to visit Dr. Ding again to make sure I was healing properly, and I was. Dr. Ding was always available to answer any question/concern and see me if something was bothering me. The recovery process really shows how skilled/talent Dr. Ding is. Even with those complicated teeth, he pulled it off as if nothing happened, and I was so impressed. Pricing: I see reviews saying that it's pricey here. As a very happy patient, I'm confident to tell you that you get what you pay for. When it comes to your health, you can't put a price on it. I strongly recommend you to go with Dr. Ding for any oral or maxillofacial needs. I'm not saying he's expensive or cheap because I didn't compare prices anywhere. I 100% trust my dentist's referrals. Based on what I paid (both insurance coverage and my own out-of-pocket), the service I received and my recovery experience, it's absolutely worth every penny and I think it's very reasonable. THANK YOU THANK YOU Dr. Ding and the entire staff at Austin Oral Surgery in Cedar Park. I truly appreciate the care and the service you provided me. read more

Very knowledgeable and highly recommend! Spends time understanding patient's medical issues prior to meeting and then thoroughly going through recommendations. read more

This doc is amazing and super detailed orientated. My stitches are aligned so perfectly. I was soooo scared to go under anesthesia, but that didn't stop he and his staff from comforting me. I never felt judged or pain once, only supported. This doc also removed wisdom teeth from both my sons. I wish I could give more stars for this doc and his staff. Thank you, Doc, for helping me today !!! read more

Does a great job and very informative! Both him and his staff are fantastic! My whole family will use him when the time arrives.

I am hoping this review gives someone a thorough feel for this wonderful doctor. I went in yesterday and had to have a molar and wisdom tooth removed. They were able to squeeze me in quickly. My pain had started in the night on Sunday, followed into Monday where I couldnt stand it anymore and made an appt with Hero Dental in Leander. Didn't really like the dentist I saw there. She gave me a list of numbers to call as referrals-and I was in such pain I couldn't believe they wouldn't help at least track down something for me. They also took an x-ray and showed me more wisdom teeth they recommended come out. So, when I left the Hero Dental, Dr. Ding was the first I called over at Austin Oral in Cedar Park. Heather, one of the nursing staff there spent time with me on the phone, so comforting, she really listened to my issue and pain, tolf me all about Dr. Ding and made me feel so welcomed. She squeezed me in the next morning. So, by day 3 that morning, the pain was bad. I walked in to Austin Oral and felt so welcomed by the staff. They are all SOOOO nice. They could see I was in a lot of pain. Heather took care of me, got to meet her. She is great!! Then I met Dr. Ding. I had wanted to tell him I didnt feel like I need the other 2 wisdom teeth extracted, just the one creating the pain. I didn't even have to say it. He looked at the x-ray and recommended we focus on the ones causing the pain! I couldn't have been happier. He patted me on the shoulder, very comforting response, and we headed back for the extraction. The room was so nice, light music in the background, the team prepped me, gave me a cozy blanket and I was out like a baby. Then, when I awoke, I felt like I had barely been there lol. The best part, no nerve pain anymore from that darned wisdom tooth and molar. Oh man was that such a good feeling! Then he patted me on the shoulder again and told me if there is anything I need to let him know. Heather wheeled me out to the car where my wife was waiting for the hand off. I went home and took a long nap. After which my wife came over to check on me and said I brought you something you might want to hear. She played it, it was a message from Dr Ding himself checking on me!! She saw me smile and I said, I never expect that kind of bedside from doctors as I know they are so busy. But my gosh! He left the same message on my phone so he had to call twice out of his busy schedule. He did not have to nor did I expect, but wow, that says a lot! I am doing awesome now and will see him for a follow up next week. Austin Oral and Dr Ding are the bomb! Just an awesome person and professional with a great staff of professionals. I hope this review gets back to them. Healthcare is a day to day tough industry, seeing lots of people like me. They bring their best, even on their worst days. You guys are great and Dr. Ding, you are loved by this community! You have this guy's admiration and thx! read more

Absolutely the worst experience. Was referred to him for a tumor in my mouth. After a pano X-ray, his prognosis was a carcinoma with thinning/deterioration on the bone. Left terrified and never had any follow up from him or the ENT that was supposedly going to call me. Found my own ENT, a trustworthy one who was cautiously optimistic after a CT scan that the tumor was benign. After surgery and a pathology report, it was benign with NO bone deterioration. He needs to stick with what he actually knows and not give a prognosis to put terror in someone and then charge $300 for a consult fee. Not professional, no follow-up & questionable ethics. read more

We can't thank Dr. Michael Ding (OralSurgeon) enough for helping out Michael's mom. I went to school with Dr. Michael Ding at Baylor College Of Dentistry up in Dallas and now we live just down the street from his office. Small World! He took such great care of Irene today...it was the last bit of treatment she needed with a specialist. Thank you Dr. Michael Ding for your expertise and generosity! We were just in for a consult and left 20 minutes later with her dental needs complete. AMAZING! If y'all need an Oral Surgeon in the Austin area Dr. Michael Ding is the BEST!!! Oh, and Big Thanks to Heather for getting everything set up, it was a pleasure meeting you! Everyone there is so friendly and professional! It's an absolutely beautiful office too! read more

Michael P Ding, DDS MD - Oral Surgeons Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr Ding and his staff. I was referred to him by my dentist after my dental implant failed, and it punctured my sinus. I am hyper anxious about any dental procedures. He performed my surgery that was painless under sedation. My recovery was exceptional and painless also. I hope that I do not need an oral surgeon in the future but if I do, this will be the doctor that I have on speed dial. His staff is very professional and and they were all very kind and very attentive. read more

I would like to write a long review for Dr. Ding but apparently other reviews already covers how you would experience at his clinic. The short answer is, you won't be disappointed and you will have no regrets on your choice. read more

The billing practices of this office are deceptive. They sent me a surprise bill for $500 after the surgery with no explanation whatsoever. They had assured me before the surgery that I had already paid everything I owed. Extremely irritating. read more

Highly professional and the great customer service. Mr Ding in my opinion is the best at in his profession. Would recommend to anyone wanting an honest and professional opinion. read more

My dentist referred me to Dr. Ding to receive a tooth implant post, to be placed into my lower jaw. The whole process took about two years between getting braces, getting braces taken off, and a bone graph in order to place the implant post. The entire process was a long one, and Dr. Ding made it a great experience! Throughout the process, he explained thoroughly what my options were, what to expect pre, during, and post surgery, and was real when it came to the amount of anticipated pain. I went through two surgeries with Dr. Ding, one I was put under for (bone graph) and the other I was not (implant post). After both surgeries, Dr. Ding personally called me after a few hours after to check on my recovery. Which was a very nice and much appreciated personal touch! Dr. Ding's offices are also really nice - the waiting room is stocked with water, coffee, and usually HGTV playing on the screens. It does run cold in the offices. Each time I had surgery I was always offered a warm blanket - which I always took them up on that offer haha. Throughout the two years, my company switched insurances three times - which was the worst part of all of this haha. Dr. Ding's billing department staff was AMAZING at helping me navigate the process! They were very specific on what I needed to do with the insurance companies. They explained the insurance process in a comprehensive manner and provided resources to me, that allowed me to make the best financial treatment decision. I would highly recommend using Dr. Ding's services, should you be in need of an oral surgeon. read more

We loved our experience with Dr Ding! My daughter had wisdom teeth removed and it was a seamless process. Dr. Ding has a friendly and confident demeanor. I felt totally comfortable leaving my daughter in his capable hands! Recommend 100%! read more

My family and I have seen Dr. Ding multiple times and I'd NEVER go to anyone else. He's thorough, kind, and the best oral surgeon I've ever experienced. read more

Dr. Ding and his team is truly the best! He really listened to my needs, concerns, and answered any questions I had beforehand. I barely remembered anything from my wisdom teeth procedure and am in very little to no pain. He got it done within 30 minutes and I waited for less than 5 minutes upon arrival. I recommend Dr. Ding if you're looking for painless and comfortable wisdom teeth extraction. read more

Before deciding to have major jaw surgery, it was imperative I do the research to find the right surgeon. I'm happy I took the time to do so because I found Dr. Ding! He performed corrective double jaw surgery on me 2 weeks ago. He did a phenomenal job! My recovery is going exceptionally well and I couldn't be any happier with my progress. Dr. Ding is the epitome of what a great Doctor should be! He is professional, attentive, compassionate, and forward thinking. His passion for what he does speaks volumes in his great work! His team and office personnel are also great! I can say hands down that this one of the best practices I've had the pleasure of visiting. read more

Great service! I had a dislocated jaw and they were able to accommodate and get me in to reset. Very professional and a joy to do business with. read more

Dr. Ding came recommended to me by my dentist. Upon looking at Dr. Ding's reviews, I am always a little suspect when someone has nothing but 5 star ratings. Anyway, I read just about all of the reviews and was impressed. So I selected him and today I had 11 teeth extracted and some bone shaping done in preparation for implants in 3 to 4 months. Most of the reviews are accurate - great manners, good staff, good surgical experience. The problem came after I got home. The pain meds were not working but when I called to ask for something stronger, Dr. Ding basically told me to "gut it out". Asshole. He's a young guy but hasn't learned in life that one shoe doesn't fit all sizes. I'm 62 years old and just don't have time for this.... read more

Dr Ding gets 5 stars on tooth extraction and prep for implant because: 1- Asked him to keep sedation and other meds to a minimum. No foggy contiousness after procedure. Was able to go to work after my coffee. 2- First Dr, not Ding, who advertises a lot, said I would need a sinus lift. Yuk. So asked my dentist for the a referal to who she considers the best. She gave me Dr Ding. Dr Ding explained, showed me on the xray and showed implant, why I had enough bone to not need a sinus lift. 3- I am kind of paranoid, so read up on procedure and everything that can go wrong. Dr Ding gave me confidance that he was ready for all contigencies. Did I say I'm paranoid, I called the day before and ask for a list of all meds Dr Ding would use so I could double check interactions in the web against my blood pressure meds. They happily gave me the info, even spelling out each meds. So Dr Ding is perfect if you worry easily and want someone who will give you reasurance, and don't want extra unessery procedure, and want to go ligth on the meds. read more

When my daughter's pediatric dentist told us she needed an extra tooth pulled, Dr. Ding was who she referred us to. My daughter was very worried about the procedure, and I cannot tell you how amazing Dr. Ding was during the entire process. During our consultation, Dr. Ding explained to her (my 8 year-old) exactly what he was going to do and what it would feel like. He even explained how she would feel after the sedation wore off. I was amazed when he kept asking her "do YOU have any questions?" instead of asking ME if I had any questions. It was obvious that he truly cares about his young patients and wants them to be informed and comfortable in his office. The day of the extraction, he was helpful and attentive... and my daughter was asking for Dr. Ding in her recovery room. He has a calming manner about himself and even followed up with a personal phone call later in the day to check on my daughter. If you're looking for an oral surgeon... definitely, hands down, go see Dr. Ding! read more

Dr. Ding is super great! Nothing but nice, patient and is always attentive. Tall, good looking and of course a nice smile for all the ladies out there who want a handsome doctor :) My surgery to get my bottom wisdom teeth out went super smooth, the nurse gives a nice warm blanket since the surgery room is cold, and the recovery time is quick. Plus having Dr. Ding explain everything in such great detail, I didn't need to ask any additional questions or second guess myself. If you have to have dental surgery, Dr. Ding is the best one to go to! read more

My dentist referred me to Dr. Ding for 3 extractions. My initial office visit was very pleasant! Dr. Ding is very knowledgable and breaks everything down for you. He even agreed with my dentist's recommendations to leave the other 3 wisdom teeth in place for the time being! So only one of those puppies is coming out and he said that's the only one that will cause me any discomfort. My dentist told me he chose Dr. Ding to extract his own daughters wisdom teeth a few months ago and that he scored the highest EVER in the US on the oral surgery test! Wow, no wonder this guy seems like he knows what he's talking about ;) My surgery is in a few days so I will finish this review after then to make it complete. UPDATE: My surgery went GREAT and so did my healing. No issues whatsoever and my follow up went really well. He does AMAING work!!! read more

Dr. Ding was professional, respectful, and went out of his way to take great care of my family! Despite other health conditions present Dr. Ding was able to quickly and easily perform two extractions under IV sedation. His staff is friendly, courteous and attentive. He personally called the day after the oral surgery to check on us and to see if there is anything we needed, or if we had any questions about the post operative care information we were given. Dr. Ding now treats several members of my family, we trust him and his care with everything from routine procedures to complicated cases - and we have always been impressed with the results of his care and the compassion he has for his patients. As a medical professional myself, I am confident in recommending Dr. Ding and his staff. They truly care about the wellbeing of their patients and their surgical outcomes. Dr. Ding can professionally, efficiently, and safely handle a vast variety of patients of all ages and conditions, even those with allergies, underlying conditions, and complicated case. We are extremity grateful for his care, expertise, and compassion, and we (as a family) refer all of our friends and family to Dr. Ding. read more

I had a wisdom tooth removed. As a senior, I was apprehensive. My dentist referred me to him. Dr. Ding was the best! Thank you! He explained everything completely. It was over before I could blink. No complications. Friendly and efficient staff. He's easy to be around and instills calm and confidence. I sure appreciated his phone call at the end of the day, to see how I was doing. read more

Dr, Ding and his staff were awesome! I needed an emergency tooth extraction and he fit me in first thing Monday morning. The procedure was quick and the recovery was easy. He even called me personally the next day to see how I was doing. I highly recommend Dr. Ding for any oral surgery needs. read more

I got a toothache over Memorial Day weekend--a week after having a c-section. By the time I saw my dentist on Tuesday, I was in extreme pain and was having difficulty swallowing. I could not eat or drink and was unable to nurse my baby due to the pain. I had a severe infection and my dentist referred me to an endodontist, who was able to see me within a couple of hours. A x-ray verified that I needed the tooth pulled immediately. By this time, it was after 4pm. The endodontist called Dr. Ding and he agreed to see me right away even though it was so late. Dr. Ding is one of the most personable and compassionate doctors I have ever been to. He and his team started my surgery after the office was officially closed and when I woke up I felt instant relief. Dr. Ding went to the parking lot to speak with my husband--who had been sitting in the car with our newborn son--to give him post-op information for me. I have never had a toothache progress that quickly, and the situation could have been so much worse had it not been for Dr. Ding. My recovery has been smooth and I am now without pain. I was not a previous patient of Dr. Ding, so the fact that he was willing to perform my surgery immediately after hours was amazing. I cannot recommend Dr. Ding and his team highly enough! read more

I went in on a Tuesday for my consultation with Dr. Ding about having my wisdom teeth extracted and had the procedure done 2 days later on Thursday. I explained when I called that I had a very short window in which I could take off of work, and they were wonderful about being understanding and working with me. I tend to do things as natural as possible, so I made multiple requests and was rather nervous about the procedure. Dr. Ding was AMAZING about it all! So kind, honest, reassuring and seriously talented. He even started my IV (that is RARE for a physician to do) and I didn't even feel it OR bruise, and THAT is saying something for a redhead. I was in and out in no time and had zero pain or memory of the procedure! Dr. Ding called me personally later that day to check in on me. I had a question a few days later and the nurse returned my call in less than 30 minutes. Very nice facility, prompt appointment, and great staff. Without a doubt I will be back with my two girls when the time comes for their wisdom teeth to be extracted. Thank you, Dr. Ding for being so incredible - you are truly amazing at what you do! read more

Dr.Ding and his staff were fantastic. Not only did they get me in immediately, the day after my dentist recommended I get my wisdom teeth taken out, but they went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. Christy, his assistant, made the process easy and smooth and I appreciated her attitude and conversation before the surgery. I would highly recommend anyone to this fine practice. read more

I'm so very happy to have found Dr Ding. I had to have my wisdom teeth removed and he was amazing. I was quite nervous but the surgery and recovery went so smoothly. Dr Ding is a wonderfully skilled oral surgeon, the best you can find. He's even great at putting in an IV. I would not hesitate recommending him to everyone I know. read more

My 5 year old had to have an extra tooth extracted. They had to go in through the roof of his mouth to extract this extra tooth. Obviously, we were very nervous about the procedure. I can't thank Dr. Ding and his staff enough for everything. They were so professional and made my son feel at ease about the surgery. From the initial consultation, to the post-op appointment, everything was perfect. We were always seen on time which is rare these days for doctor appointments. On the morning of his surgery, the nurses were so kind to our son and made him feel calm about his surgery. Later in the day after his procedure, Dr. Ding called to check on our son. I highly recommend Dr. Ding for any oral surgery but especially for young children. If our son has to have his wisdom teeth taken out down the road, we will be going back to Dr. Ding. read more

What a gem Dr Ding is! This is my first experience with an oral surgeon and I highly recommend him. I was so nervous when I first got there but after talking with him, I was super comfortable. There is no pressure to do everything at one time. I appreciate his honesty and wiliness to take things at my financial pace. You are in good hands with Dr Ding:) read more

In a word: OUTSTANDING! I had a damaged root canal and my dentist recommended Dr. Ding to fix it. What a wise dentist (Dr. Eivens) I have because Dr. Ding and the excellent staff at Austin Oral Surgery took me in, set me at ease, explained what needed to be done. All in words that I could relate to. They then proceded to fix my issue in a painless and very professional way! What a doctor, what a staff, what a great experience! Any concern I had was way unfounded. No after pain. No side effects. Thank you Dr Ding and your great staff. read more

I had to have all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed last Thursday and Dr. Ding was amazing! He made sure that all my questions were answered and that I was comfortable. On the day of surgery, he and his staff were all very friendly and made me feel confident that it would run smoothly. I have had some surgery before and was more nervous about the IV than the actual procedure! I was so thankful that he was able to get it on the first try! My surgery went very well as did my recovery. I don't have any complaints and would highly recommend!! read more

I was so nervous about getting my tooth pulled and having my new implant put in! Dr. Ding was the best! He made me feel so comfortable with his awesome "bedside" mannerism! He thoroughly explained everything in a way a non- clinical person could understand. He instantly put me at ease about the procedure. During the procedure I couldn't feel anything or feel the IV he put in. It was so smooth! His staff was AMAZING and very caring! I highly recommend his facility if you need an oral surgeon!!! read more

I was referred to Dr. Ding by my dentist to have an implant done on a tooth that I had a previous root canal on that would not heal. Dr. Ding explained the procedure thoroughly and put me at ease. I had the IV sedation for having the tooth pulled. Dr. Ding is an expert at sedation. He put the IV in really fast and before he even finished his first sentence I was out. I din't have any bruising and I didn't feel groggy afterwards. I had very minimal pain after the procedure.I went back for the second step for my implant and it was the same way. I highly recommend Dr. Ding and his staff has always been friendly and helpful as well. read more

I give Dr. Ding, Katelyn and Jamie a five plus. Dr. ding pulled a tooth that had a root canal and the tooth was also broke. What a challenge. I am terrified of needles and Dr. Ding discussed different ways I could be sedated. After the procedure I expected to feel all kinds of pain. However, I did not feel any. This was a big plus since I do not like taking pain medication. I appreciated Dr. Ding's chair side manner before and after the procedure. He called me at home to make sure I was okay and to answer any questions. Katelyn and Jamie were great!! They were very attentive. My visit was very relaxing. I highly recommend Dr. Ding and his staff. Thank you for an awesome experience. read more

My teen daughter had her four impacted wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Ding, and the entire process exceeded her (and my) expectations! During the initial consultation, Dr. Ding put my daughter's fears at ease as he thoroughly explained what would happen before, during, and after. Then, the actual procedure only took about 30 mins and afterward my daughter had no pain, no swelling. It was amazing. Dr. Ding called a few hours after surgery to see how she was doing. He was absolutely wonderful and highly skilled, and the entire staff was excellent, too. Our family dentist recommended Dr. Ding, and my daughter and I highly recommend him, too. read more

Dr. Ding did 2 implants in August. Again, no pain, a little discomfort for a few days. Can't say enough to show my appreciation for Dr. Ding! Thank you! read more

Dr. Ding and his assistant Ms.Bella made my wisdom tooth extraction a 'walk in the park'! Professional, friendly, answered all my questions with kindness... no pain! read more

Dr Ding was amazing. I am a confirmed dentalphobe, and he did a magnificent job extracting a broken molar. I would recommend him without reservation. read more
