I stumbled upon this office and quickly learned that Dr. Bedford & his staff are WONDERFUL. Since my first phone call with them they were so helpful and kind, I really felt welcomed and that they really wanted to help me. They worked with me to make sure my insurance would cover everything and even returned my calls and kept me up to date. They called to remind me to not eat or drink the day of my surgery and the day of they were so nice and informative, they made sure I was comfortable and wanted me to ask any questions I had. My wisdom teeth removal went great and although I don't remember leaving, my boyfriend was filled in on how to follow up and care for my mouth for the next week. I am so happy and please with my experience here, I will recommend them to anyone who asks and will return if I have to.

Just like other reviews, he was humming a tune nearly the entire time, making funny comments and his staff genuinely also seemed to enjoy their work and were so very nice! The office is bright & fairly modern in the exam areas, and I really like that they have computers right there to show your x-rays right away. But sorry, no TVs like some of the other dentists in the area, but that's OK with me. They do have music on speakers, though. The cleaning and exam were very thorough and I didn't feel like the Dr. was rushing off to another patient - he took his time and talked to me and reviewed everything, making me feel like a valuable patient.

Once I was in the chair, they started right away.....There is a lot to be said for a doctor's office that you do not have to wait...at all! I am not sure how they do it, but it was the most comfortable dentist experience ever; my mouth/lips did not feel weird after wards, because they were so gentle....more so than when I floss my own teeth! They explain everything they are doing, what they are looking for etc....although you are in and out in a timely manner, they do not rush. You get their full attention as if you were the only patient that day. I am actually looking forward to going back....

He was the kindest and sweetest man and took great care of me. I was not sedated the first go around as my veins are hard to find and he didn't want to keep sticking me. So he numbed me up really good and gave me some laughing gas. The process of removing my lower wisdom teeth was fairly quick. I did get dry socket and had to come back for treatment. The staff were very friendly as well. A few years later I returned and had the same experience. Pleasant as always. This time it hurt a little more as my upper wisdom teeth were removed and they were impacted. The healing process took a little longer than the first time. I got to interact with Dr.Herbosa, as I had to go back due to some pain and discomfort. He was nice and pleasant to deal with as well.

I had surgery on 4 wisdom teeth cavitation sites with Dr. Moreland in April 2014. Unfortunately…read morethe whole left side of my face became infected - jawbone, sinuses, ears, and I was starting to lose my vision on the left side. I've spent about $15k trying to recover from the cavitation disaster at Dr. Moreland's office. I am so thankful that I am still alive, and want to share what I've learned so hopefully no one else makes the same mistakes I did. Pros: -Scheduling and billing are easy and well organized at this office. Cons: - This office does not use ozone. Never, ever have dental surgery without ozone!!! You are just asking for a nasty infection. - The helper forced my jaw open when I was numb and I heard a 'pop.' Dr. Moreland said 'Don't force it' but it was already too late. I had nasty Trismus and jaw pain. Trismus is very difficult to get rid of. - Dr. Moreland drains people's sinuses through their mouths. I've talked to two ENT doctors and one oral surgeon since my disaster with Dr. Moreland, and all of them agree that draining the sinuses through the mouth is a very bad idea. Bacteria, fungus, and mold in the mouth can then make their way to the sinuses. If the hole he makes doesn't heal, you will have to put a metal plate in the roof of your mouth to avoid chronic sinus problems. Thank God I didn't let him do this to me! - After surgery, when things weren't going well, I called Dr. Moreland's office every day. His assistants basically always said the same thing - this is normal and don't be a wimp. Moreland himself wouldn't talk to me until my sinuses ruptured and I demanded to talk to him. I asked if I could come back and he could open my infected side up again. He refused and told me to find someone locally to work with. - Dr. Moreland used a DRILL to drill up into my sinuses. Another oral surgeon later told me that you should never, ever use a drill in the sinus area. It felt like he was using a jackhammer, and I ended up with severe head trauma. I spent thousands at the oseopath and chiropractor trying to unravel all of the head trauma, headaches, and pain. Tips: - Cavitation surgery might be able to be prevented with ozone injections. Try those first!! In hindsight, I had 2 dentists, 1 MD and 1 oral surgeon all tell me that I probably didn't need the uppers done, they could've likely been resolved with ozone injections alone. - Do not do oral surgery with anyone who does not use ozone to help prevent infection. - Ask in advance if they force your mouth open during surgery. - If you do have cavitation surgery, find someone who will do ozone injections into each site after surgery. Reference [1] is a case from Dr. Moreland where even after surgery, there are still multiple cavitations. - Never let anyone drain your sinuses through your mouth. - Never let anyone drill into your sinuses. Period. - Try nasal ozone for sinus infections & ear infections - amazing! - Don't forget to support your immune system after dental procedures.

Two years ago, my daughter had major jaw surgery conducted by Dr. Movahed. This surgery was over 6…read morehours long! Prior to the surgery my daughter had trouble breathing, slept with her mouth open and had an extremely weak chin. The surgery was miraculous! Post surgery, my daughter has no breathing issues, can sleep with her mouth closed and now has a beautiful profile with a chin perfectly proportioned to her face. In fact, her whole face seemed to properly align itself. She's a beautiful young woman. Most amazing was the post op recovery. She experienced very little pain! In fact, we only used about half the prescribed pain pills. Dr. Movahed was a stickler about the dos and don'ts of recovery - something extremely necessary with teenagers. I had to constantly remind my daughter that she just had major surgery and should take it easy with chewing hard foods. That's how remarkable this surgery was. The challenges of the surgery were traveling to St Louis and dealing with the insurance company. Dr. Movahed's staff was very helpful on both accounts. Jaw surgery is a major operation, and you want the best. In my opinion, Dr. Movahed proved to be the best with my daughter's life-changing operation.

When they say you have to be mentally prepared for jaw surgery, they MEAN IT!…read more   I was terrified to have jaw surgery! So terrified that that I put it off for over 20 years. After needing braces for the third time, I was introduced to Dr. Movahed. I was extremely hesitant to meet with him, and I only agreed to the consultation to appease my orthodontist. To my surprise, I agreed to meet a Dr. who completely change my mind about surgery. From my first visit, until now (9 months post-op), Dr. Movahed and his staff have been EXCEPTIONAL. The entire process was very smooth and I always felt like they truly took the time to get to know me and my needs, which put me at ease during the entire process.   Following my procedure, Dr. Movahed and his nurse practitioner were always a call or text away. I never felt confused about the process nor did I feel neglected in my care or communication regarding the procedure and recovery.   I felt like it was very critical to follow ALL of the "rules" after surgery. I was very intentional about following the instructions, and my recovery went very smoothly. Some days were mentally rough, due to the limited diet you have to follow; however, with Dr. Movahed and my personal support system/family it was doable. Overall, I am beyond grateful that I went through with the procedure. I went into the procedure expecting minor changes to my profile, but the results are far better than anyone anticipated (for the better)! Dr. Movahed is truly more than just a doctor, he is an artist! One that takes pride in his work and is just as invested in each and every patient as they are in themselves.   If you are considering surgery (or highly against it like I was ) I recommend scheduling a consultation with Dr. Movahed and giving him a chance to walk you through the experience as he did with me.

DISAPPOINTING!!! In…read moreMay of 2025, I had 3 teeth extracted. I made it very clear I was unsure if I was moving forward with my dental implant, since I was having a knee replacement later in the year. I was given a price of $615.00 as my total payment. I was assured everything was covered, regardless if I had my implant or not. Payment was made the day I had the teeth extracted. In August, I received another statement stating that I still owed $83.00, to which I paid right away. Fast forward 10 months, and I receive ANOTHER bill from OFSI for $674.00 stating that there was a "miscommunication" with my insurance company regarding me not getting the implant. 10 months later...when I went to appeal I was denied twice because I was past my 180 day window to appeal. When I questioned why it took 10 months no one could give me an answer. The office staff that I spoke with was not professional and not helpful. I was very frustrated that no one in the office was honest with me letting me know that the bone graft would only be covered IF I went ahead with the dental implant. This office lacks communication and transparency. Plus..I was not happy about the procedure, strapping my hands down in the chair and giving me ZERO post surgical information. I only gave them 1 star because I had too.. ZERO STARS...
