FYI-- there are 2 separate Yelp review pages for the same place. Unfortunately I have genetic periodontal disease--am otherwise very healthy-- and this disease is no joke. I came to Berkeley-Orinda Oral Surgery 5 years ago for extractions, and had to come back again this week. This time my doctor was Dr. Irving, and he is amazing! He is kind, calm, has incredible expertise and knowledge, and is handsome! :) I felt reassured when I met him for my consultation a couple weeks ago--this place and their doctors really instill trust. I have a fear of needles and stubborn teeth, so I decided to go for sedation, and I'm so glad I did! I did get faint when the IV went in, (which happens to me regularly) but I let the team know, and they handled it really well. I was awake before I knew it, and have had very little pain. Dr. Irving called me later that evening to check on me, which was much appreciated. If you need to get oral surgery of any kind, this is the place to go. If I decide to get implants, I will come back here. All the office staff are great and helpful, and Dr. Irving and his team (Velvet, and a nice nurse) were amazing, and I highly recommend B.O.O.S. read more

I recently was referred here by my dentist (who is not an oral surgeon), to have a tooth pulled. My overall experience here was quite positive. I didn't feel any pain and everything went smoothly, despite me having to lose a tooth. They work efficiently here but also seem patient to answer any and all questions you might have. read more

My brother and I took my 93 year old mom to the Berkeley office to have two teeth extracted. She was not happy to be there but Dr. Bryan Krey and his entire staff could not have been kinder to her. They made the process as comfortable and pleasant as possible. The entire staff was very professional and caring. We were given follow up instructions and received a folllow up call to check on her that evening. The Berkeley office is unimpressive from the outside but once we entered we were taken care of by what seems like a very capable and together practice. If anyone in my family needs their services again I will not hesitate to return. Also, the office has a parking lot and is walking distance to Telgraph Ave. and the Cal campus. read more

I was referred by my regular dentist to this office for an extraction and I am very happy with the treatment I received by Dr. Irving and his staff. They did an excellent job of helping me to feel relaxed and comfortable and they explained the procedure clearly and patiently. In the end, I experienced less pain and discomfort than I have with either a filling or a root canal. I also appreciated Dr. Irving's phone call on the following day to check in on how I was doing. Highly recommended. read more

This is a wonderful office. My mom just had a tooth pulled today with absolutely no problem whatsoever. Correspondence was issued prior to and after the procedure. The staff was so friendly, accommodating, communicative and professional. Parking was great. The atmosphere was relaxing which is a big deal when one is facing Oral Surgery. My sincere gratitude to the entire staff. read more

"Berkeley Orinda Oral Surgery: I don't normally write reviews unless something changes my life--or at least my face--and guess what? Dr. Irving and the team at Berkeley Orinda Oral Surgery did both. Before coming here, I was chewing with the caution of a baby chipmunk and smiling like I was hiding from the paparazzi. Flash forward: thanks to Dr. Irving's magical implant skills, I now eat apples with confidence and smile like I've got a modeling contract pending. Dr. Irving isn't just a surgeon--he's a jaw genius, a bone whisperer, and maybe even a low-key superhero. He explained everything like I was a normal person (not a terrified dental goblin), kept the procedure smooth, and somehow made oral surgery feel like a day at the spa--with titanium. The staff? Kind, helpful, funny, and apparently trained in both medicine and emotional support. ( thank you Velvet) I walked in nervous, but left with a titanium upgrade and a playlist recommendation. So if you're thinking about dental implants and want to keep your dignity, your comfort, and your sense of humor--Berkeley Orinda Oral Surgery is where it's at. Thanks, Dr. Irving. I'm smiling like a lunatic, and it's all your fault. read more

As much as I hated to have to have a tooth extracted, Dr. Irving and his staff made the procedure stress free and pleasant. Great people and highly recommend. Dr. Irving even called me after to see how I was doing! read more

Dr. Irving did an excellent job removing wisdom teeth from both of my kids. He's patient and kind. Highly recommend.

I've visited the Berkeley~Orinda Oral Surgery on October 11, 2024. I received great care and quality professional service under dentist Dr. Greggory B. Irving. The office experience was super professional with positive atmosphere and kind staffers. I went to have my tooth extracted after trying to see many Endodontics who only cared about how much money was in my health insurance account. The level of care was very warming and refreshing alongside Velvet the dentist assistant who was very helpful in making sure that I was doing well when I departed for home. What a great service. read more

Price gouging is alive and well here. I was told I would be paying a total of $760 by the front desk in Orinda. They ended up charging me $1400 and then billed my insurance for $1400 more. I paid out of pocket for a CT scan and they double billed the insurance company. read more
