I can't even begin to express how happy I am with the work Dr. Kevin Jeworski did on my wisdom teeth. During a regular check-up 4 years ago (when I was only 16 years old), my primary care dentist found that my wisdom teeth were impacted, and the lower ones almost horizontally so. But I didn't have any problems back then, so I wasn't convinced about getting wisdom teeth removed when they weren't troubling me.
Fast forward to December 2020, I woke up one morning with pain and swelling behind my second molar, and I knew right away that my impacted wisdom teeth had started causing symptoms. To get immediate symptomatic treatment, I went to my family dentist where I also had another x-ray taken which showed that the roots of my lower wisdom teeth had grown and were now in close proximity to the nerve! The oral surgeon in my area was unavailable, so a family friend of mine, who is also a dentist, referred me to Dr. Jeworski.
So Dr. Kevin Jeworski looked at my x-ray and then called me saying that he can remove my wisdom teeth on the same day as my consultation with him! So I decided to fast for 6 hours before my consultation. During the consultation process, I met him, we discussed the anesthesia options (I chose local anesthesia with laughing gas), and he assured me that it won't be a difficult process. I immediately noticed his friendly nature, his sense of humor, and his knowledge owing to his years of experience. I felt at ease!
Before I knew it, I was on the surgical chair breathing the laughing gas with Dr. Jeworski and his assistant performing the surgery. I was awake during the process, so I was watching him carry out the procedure. Dr. Jeworski knew exactly what he was doing, and I knew from watching him, that I'm in the best hands!
Not 30 minutes later, the procedure was done, and all 4 of my wisdom teeth were successfully taken out. I had very little swelling, almost no pain, and I was eating most of my regular foods by the 3rd day after surgery. The only issue I faced was that the left side of my chin was slightly numb following the surgery, even after the local anesthesia wore off. This is common if the roots of the lower wisdom teeth are close to the nerve, and this nerve gets compressed while the wisdom teeth are being removed. This is not a serious problem at all, and it usually goes away in a matter of weeks, like it did in my case.
All in all, I am extremely impressed with Dr. Jeworski. He is quite possibly the best and the most experienced doctor I have ever visited. My only regret is not getting wisdom teeth removed from him sooner! I guess 5 stars would be too low if it weren't the best I could give him. read more
