    I had a gum graft procedure in Aug 2023 and I could've been advised better on it by Dr Adams. The…read moredonor graft clearly failed but at the time I didn't understand what was happening and I already had a lot of anxiety about it so I was just trusting him. I just felt weird about it and each time I asked him if it was normal he said it was. He even told me at the six week post op appt to "don't worry about it don't look at it just leave it alone" and ever since then I had two dentists and one hygienist tell me that I need gum graft surgery, and when I told him I had it done they were each surprised.. so that was my first hint that I was right, and then they also pointed out things that he said "were fine" were not. I'm about to have the procedure again with a different periodontist that has made me feel like I am heard, not brushed off like a bug off on someone's shoulder. I walked into Adam's office knowing that I had at least three teeth on top that had recession but to my surprise, he only pointed out one so I went with it. This new doctor immediately pointed out the three on top without me saying anything. Long story short this taught me to always get a second opinion and to go with your gut.

    Dr. Adams and all of his staff are wonderful. I have been seeing Dr. Adams for about three or four…read moreyears. He has communicated with my dentist and orthodontist regularly. He has listened to me. He has calmed me. His work is superior. The hygienists are friendly, through, and explain step by step what is being done. I have never had to wait, I arrive a few minutes before my appointment and am seen almost immediately. Check out is fast, easy and friendly. I have never been surprised by the cost. I strongly recommend Dr. Adams if you are looking for a periodontist.

    Some important things to know about this practice is they don't take insurance, which is a telltale…read moresign of a strictly profit-driven office. I have a dentist who is pretty unconcerned with my gum issues, but my gums are receding and I'm in a losing battle with my oral health so I called this office to inquire about being a patient and was told they wouldn't accept me without getting a referral from my dentist. I literally started crying on the phone and she could care less. Then I hopped on Yelp and see all their negative reviews and I guess I dodged a bullet here.

    Let me start by saying my Free Gingival Graft was the first "surgery" I have ever had. Coming from…read morea woman with a pretty strong dental anxiety, and even more so just anxiety in general, let me tell you, I was legitimately scared, anxious, and nervous when I found out from my dentist this procedure was going to have to happen sooner than later. I had my consultation 2 weeks ago. The office is beautiful, peaceful, and actually relaxing. Dr. McKenzie is my provider, Amy was my assistant, and Debbie my Treatment Coordinator during that visit. They knew I was incredibly nervous and skeptical, but it was more than obvious they know what they are doing. Dr. McKenzie has a great bedside manner, as well as Amy (who really needed to distract me while taking my impression for my stent) and was able to provide answers to all of my questions since this first meeting. Amy and Debbie were also incredibly patient, kind, and knowledgeable. It did not take Dr. McKenzie long at all to realize exactly what procedure I needed done, and of course I already knew with my research, answer-seeking and overthinking. Ha! I went over the procedure, payment/payment options, and my mountainous list of questions during the consultation and was able to get scheduled for the following week, so here we are, my first surgery scheduled! I probably called Debbie 4 different times for questions and an early RX request (to ensure I would have it the night prior). Once again, happily answered all of my questions and was kind, patient, and even funny! I loved working with Debbie and would highly recommend her and her team! The day of procedure, I got there 15 minutes early, bright and early at 6:45. My parents went with me since I was getting IV sedation, but also nerves of course. So when they called me back and sat me down, I was probably the most nervous, because hey, anxiety. However, Dr. McKenzie came in to answer any more questions and made me feel better about the whole procedure. Amy, and the anesthesiologist also did, and told me exactly what would happen, as I have never been sedated like that before. They told me it was normal for my heart rate to be high, hey, anxiety again, and it would be over before I knew it. When I got the IV, that is actually the last thing I remember, and before I knew it I was up and the procedure was done. It took 45 minutes. IV sedation - highly recommend if you have dental anxiety, or anxiety at all! Lets talk about the pain now, this was one of my many concerns. I have a decent pain tolerance but when it comes to my mouth, hey that's a sensitive place! With my procedure, they removed tissue from the roof of my mouth and sewed it onto my front gums for the graft. It sounds horrible - yes. However, I was not aware of any of this happening. Once again - grab that IV sedation while it's hot. I did not feel any pain on the roof of my mouth until the next day, and with the pain medicine RX, it definitely helped. I took that and Advil throughout the healing process. The gums were a bit sore for a few days, but to be completely honest, so much less sore than I thought! I was also provided a stent which TRULY protects and limits your pallet pain. I am baffled at how any providers would not opt for providing this piece of the healing process. For the first few days, you want to stick with cold + soft foods such as ice cream, applesauce, shakes, smoothies - but they will give you all of this information ahead of time. Also, I miss pizza. Dr. McKenzie not only called to check on me the day after my surgery, I was able to text him questions a few days later and he responded right away. Longest Yelp review yet but my view on this surgery has changed completely, thanks to the patience, knowledge, and way my experience went with Dr. McKenzie and his team. Thank you!

    This is my first experience with this business and I couldn't be happier…read more The care I received stated when I walked thru the door. The front desk is kind, provided me with perfect instructions and answered my questions. Getting an x- ray was so easy and she was sweet and patient! I was nervous! The dentist took quality time with me to understand my medical history and my needs. He explained several options, pros & cons, of course giving me the choice but what really amazed me is the way he explained things to me, the care I actually felt for what he is doing and I am able to make an educated decision asto what I'd like to proceed with. And NO PRESSURE AT ALL. I'm very impressed with this practice. Thank you for the excellent visit, it means so much to me.
