Dr Wilgus is THE BEST. Sadly, I too have had much dental work and periodontal issues. Referred to Dr. WIlgus by my dentist, I have been in his office for years. He is awesome, as are his hygienists. I appreciate Dr. Wilgus working with me to save my teeth, rather than rushing me towards implants. Very highly recommend!!! read more

Let's be honest, no one likes the idea of having a tooth pulled, in my case, two wisdom teeth and another back tooth readied for an implant. If you find yourself in my situation , chose your dentist wisely, I luckily chose Jeremy Wilgus. I arrived on time and was immediately attended to by a bevy of smiling faces, all so friendly and comforting. Brenda H. Set up the I V for the sedative, yeah, I choose to sleep through the procedure. Brenda definitely had done this before, the I V was painless. As we waited for the Dentist, Brenda showed me some of the supplies that would be used and explained the procedure. This was done in a very relaxed and calm manner, which helped soothe my nerves. Doctor Wilgus arrived and calmly explained what I should expect and how to care for my mouth afterwards. After the sedative was administered we talked for about a minute and I was out. My next recollection was waking after the procedure. Other then feeling a bit groggy, I experienced no pain. In the week following the procedure, today, I've experienced very little discomfort, I was really pleasantly surprised, the procedure I dreaded was over and it wasn't bad at all. Actually, other than eating soft food, it was no big deal. This is the place to go for a case such as mine, you will be pleasantly surprised! read more

As a retired nurse, I know how challenging it is to find a doctor who is superb in his/her specialty field and genuinely warm & caring as well. Dr. Wilgus is that rare doctor. And his office crew members are always professional & courteous. read more

Wow! I broke a crown off and am relatively new to SoCal, so, I was very pleased when my dentist, Dr. McCarthy got me a same day appt. with Dr. Wilgus. I had an extraction and an implant done two hours later. I'm really scared of the dentist and was pleased that Dr. Wilgus was super gentle, patient and sweet. Nothing hurt and it seemed to go by fast. I'm a bit sore the next day, but nothing out of the ordinary. He also explained what he was doing which makes me less anxious. I highly recommend him and his kind staff. I feel like I hit the jackpot finding him during this icky tooth hot mess. read more

I have had SO much dental work. I found out I had an infected tooth that was causing me pain. The tooth needed to be pulled and I made the decision to have a dental implant. Mydentist referred me to Dr. Wilgus. he is great, and so is his staff. This will be my 8th dental implant (ugh), and has been the easiest one so far. I am new to this area, and am relying on referrals from strangers and from Yelp. This is a lovely and caring peridontists practice. As a, sadly, very experienced dental patient, i can recommend them highly. read more

While traveling overseas, I broke a tooth on an olive pit. I was referred to Dr. Wilgus for removal of the tooth and implant. He noticed I needed serious gum work on other areas and suggested treatment. I had multiple surgeries and even went to their office for a routine cleaning. My teeth and gums feel better than ever. I am so happy! During all of the treatments, Dr. Wilgus and his staff were friendly, professional and helpful. I even got calls after my surgeries directly from Dr. Wilgus to make sure everything was okay. One surgery came right after a holiday weekend, but I needed to get in touch with the doctor during the weekend. I was worried, but called and was put in touch with the doctor right away. Talk about service! I will continue to use Dr. Wilgus in addition to my dentist to prevent further issues from arising. I want great dental care, not band-aid dentistry. read more

I was referred to Dr. Wilgus at the beginning of the year. I had every intention of doing a review on him at that time, but I forgot until I was looking something up today. I cannot say anything negative about my experience. From the staff, to the appointments to the actual procedure. The staff was so friendly. professional and personable. It seemed evident to me that Dr. Wilgus chose this profession because he wanted to make a difference. Prior to my surgery, I hid my smile. My teeth were small and I had just gotten my braces off. He reshaped my gums and I am happily smiling now. My husband even stated that it was nice to see me smiling without a closed mouth or with my hand covering it. I would highly recommend Dr. Wilgus and his staff to anyone. read more

About two years after my gum graft surgery I continue to get very positive compliments from my GP dentist about Dr. Wilgas' work. Very nice to know that he fixed an issue that my dentist thought would result in the loss of a molar tooth and the results are permanent. Can't compliment Dr. Wilgas enough. read more

This was one of the best experiences I have had at a periodontal office. I was not blessed with the best teeth and even though I take good care of them, over the years I have had lots of work. When my dentist referred me to Dr Wilgus, I was a little reluctant because it was a little ways away from where I work and live. I'm so glad I made the treck to this office. From Debbie at the front office to Brenda the assistant, plus others which I didn't get there names, they were all very welcoming and friendly. They kept me informed as to everything they were doing the whole time. Then there was Dr Wilgus, oh my word, he is so good looking as well as being super nice. The grafting procedure was done in no time and with NO discomfort! He explained everything he did and he gave me the after care instructions as to what to expect later. He has the best bedside manor ever, plus did I mention how cute he is? I would surely recommend this office to anyone needing a Periodontal procedure. Thank you everyone at Camarillo Periodontist! read more

Dr. Wilgus was a huge help - after being told by another dentist that 20K worth of extensive surgery, tooth extraction and reconstruction was needed - Dr. Wilgus simply did some gum grafting that has held for over two years now and the area is perfect. Great staff - I drive over 50 miles to see them! read more

Dr Wilgus and all of his staff are professional, caring and understanding. No one ever enjoys hearing they need to have gum graft surgery, yet from start to finish this was a pleasant experience. Their upbeat and friendly approach instilled confidence immediately. I was referred to Dr Wilgus by my regular dentist and I am glad I was. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing periodontal services. read more

What might have been a scary, miserable experience for my 13 year old son, was anything but, thanks to Dr. Wilgus and his staff. My 13 year old son had a labial frenectomy and a gingivectomy to remove the extra gum tissue caused by the squeezing action from his braces. Dr. Wilgus made my son feel comfortable during the procedure (only slight pain during the last 2 minutes) and his post-care went smoothly with almost no pain (no pain killers were needed) and no infection (no antibiotics were needed). From a cosmetic standpoint, today there the muscle did re-attach slightly but much higher up. Regarding the gingevectomy to remove the bunched gums caused by braces, when we went to our post-appointment, Dr. Wilgus made a comment about how he now has "bigger teeth" but my son's gingivectomy did not increase the size of his teeth, nor was that the purpose. The doctor removed the extra depth from the gums (if you were to look from the side of his front, top teeth gumline before the surgery, you would have seen the gum tissue bunched up between and above the front teeth from the braces squeezing the teeth together) but he did not cut the gumLINE in any way to increase the size of his front teeth. So, although we are satisfied with the results, the doctor did not recall EXACTLY what he did during our post op appointment. I guess in a way that is a testament to how nice and normal my son's gums do look now since even his doctor couldn't tell which type of cut he made to the gums! lol. His minor forgetfulness at the post-op is the reason I cannot give him the full monty (5 stars). I recommend Dr. Wilgus for a gingivectomy (removal of bunched-up gums caused by the squeezing action of braces) and labial frenectomy (for space between front two teeth). Additionally, he put my 13 year old son at ease and the entire process caused absolutely no anxiety or pain! read more

There is not a better surgeon in the area for gums and implants! Dr wilgus is outstanding, thankful ventura county has him and we dont have to drive to West LA for a person of this caliber! Many people including myself get nervous when going to the dentist, but Dr wilgus completely alleviates the stress through his personality, his tone, how he articulates your situation and how he talks to you during the procedure. I wish my general dentist was a good as him. Finally, his staff couldn't be more pleasant and warm. They make you calm and well taken care of the moment you walk in the door. read more

Got referred from my dentist for some needed gum surgery. Dr Wilgus and his staff were great! Didn't feel the shot, he did such a great job with my stitches, protective coverings and checkup. I actually used the word delightful when they were done with my procedure. I would highly recommend him. read more

Fabulous periodonist. Did not even feel the novacain shot. He did a great job and I highly recommend him. He is the One.

I drive from northern Cali to see Dr. Wilgus. He has the most gentle hand in the industry. I can barely feel it when he is working on me. The IV sedation option is a god-sent since I am a huge baby with NO pain threshold. The staff is also wonderful. As I was leaving, still groggy after IV sedation, Diane in the front office remembered how much I liked an article in one of their magazines and sent it home with me. I was completely shocked that someone would take note and then still remember after my gum graft surgery without any discussion about it. Given the nature of my visit to their office, I have been seriously impressed with how pleasant my experience has been. read more

Dr. Wilgus is simply awesome. He came highly recommended by Dr. Leslie Solomon and I can see why. I've had a couple of procedures and some checkups with him and he and his staff always made me feel at ease and never rushed. I hope I never have to see him again :-) but if I do I know he'll take care of me. Would definitely recommend him. read more

I have been to Dr Wilgus for 2 gum grafts and cannot say enough about the great and personal service. Everything went well and like the other review I also had a personal call from Dr Wilgus to check up on how I was feeling. Very little pain and great recovery and followup. I know I need some additional treatment and I will be back to see Dr Wilgus. read more

I'm a huge fan of Dr. Wilgus and his office. Highly, Highly recommend them. When my dentist told me I needed gum surgery, I had never had it done and was a little freaked out about it. Dr. Wilgus was incredibly nice, explaining the proceedure, offering me many choices for my comfort level of whether I wanted to be put under or the usual numbing way. (I decided not to be put under and went with numbing) He promised me I would not feel a thing..it would be over in less than 45 minutes and it went exactly as he said it would. I went home shocked not to be in a lot of pain and was pleasantly surprised when he called later that evening to check up on how i was doing. It was nice to know he was concerned about my well being. When my Dentist told me I had to have an implant done, I was like, your kidding? Due to my first experience with Dr. Wilgus I wanted to go back to him. This time also more freaked out as I have not had a tooth pulled since my wisdom teeth as a kid...I'm now 55 yrs old. Again he said I had options...but this time recommended a sedative be taken the night before I came in for the appointment and another pill to be taken 90 minutes before the appointment. It absolutely did the trick. I got into the office, he nummed my mouth and again within 45 minutes...tooth was out, I was stitched up. Dr. Wilgus said I would be aware of what was happening (pressure pulling the tooth out) but my nerves were gone..I went home to go back to sleep...and rested the remainder of the day..but virtually had minimal pain. So cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Wilgus and his girls are great too, very helpful, nice and great to work with. read more
