Oral surgery in Waynesboro, VA

I knew from the 3D xray and previous root problems, that it would be a really tough extraction. In fact, three other dentists including an oral surgeon had turned it down! Indeed, it was super, super tough. He took out a back molar with long roots that were knotted together AND had extra roots growing out of the bottom of them. It took over an hour and a half and I have to admit, it was awful! I have a gene which makes me more susceptible to pain. BUT he gave me extra painkiller as I needed it, so as miserable as it was, I was not in pain. Just miserable. I felt super confident the doctor was working as hard and fast and as carefully as he could. That was two days ago. I am bruised but confident he did a remarkable job under the worst of circumstances. Patient, competent, and kind. I am so thankful to have that tooth (which had had infections going on for nearly a year I was controlling with clove oil) OUT of my mouth for good! Thank you, thank you, thank you Dr Cena and staff. UPDATE: The crown is now placed and it is wonderful. Some crowns are too close to get floss around, and some are too far from neighboring teeth and all food gets stuck there. This is perfect and felt "normal" within 24 hours of placement. All is well.

I now have a lower full arch permanently installed— It’s is life changing. The journey was rough getting here though. The office where I began was going through a series of temporary doctors and communication was awful. The temporary denture was ill fitting, looked ridiculous being bright white, and was so painful I could not wear it. I spent two extra months in that state because of the disconnect between the changing doctors. But then I switched over to the Waynesboro office and my experience with them has been extraordinary. The staff is professional and pleasant, I can always reach the office, and the communication has been excellent. The doctor really listened to what I was hoping for, changed the plan from snap on and off to permanent, and designed the denture with the tech to look completely natural, and the staff lightened my upper teeth to match. He was clearly an expert in this area and handled everything beautifully. I am so grateful!

Staff were friendly and profession
