Excellent practice! I picked this place bc I have family that went here. Both offices in Caldwell & in Florham Park are beautiful! My family members had used Dr. Jacobs & loved him, but my appointment was with Dr Kirsch. He is excellent! I had a partially erupted, impacted lower wisdom tooth that has been giving me problems on & off for months now. I saw him back in April for a consult & panoramic X-ray when I was only having some minor discomfort that came & went, he initially recommended me to not remove the tooth at this point because I am 30 years old & the roots have grown in much deeper and they were both placed on either side of a nerve. He wanted me to try some at home treatment & see if it helped first. So a couple months past with on & off minor discomfort, but earlier this week the wisdom tooth got really bad to a point where I couldn't even close my teeth together or chew almost at all, there was some protrusion that was keeping my teeth from touching. I waited a couple days & when it didn't go away I called Dr. Kirsch's office; they fit me in the same day to get it checked out. He has excellent bedside manner & did calm me down bc I am a very nervous person. He had to do a ct scan to have a better image of the affected tooth and to also check to see if there was anything involving the tooth in front that would cause interference with this tooth, the result was that there wasn't so he recommended to now take out the wisdom tooth. The protrusion actually was the root poking through my gums that was causing the swelling! I was nervous, but we discussed everything, he answered every question I had-I told him I didn't want to be put to sleep, he recommended iv sedation and gas because being that the root was bear a nerve and he had to cut around the tooth, that if I made and involuntary movements during surgery that could be dangerous so I was fine with that because I wouldn't be totally out. I went to book my appointment but the next available time he had wasn't until a week later, I took it even though I really didn't want to wait that long because I could barely chew. 5 min after I left, they called me back and said he was willing to come in early on Thursday morning (2 days later) so that I could get done sooner. I was so happy and am so thankful to him that he offered that. He prescribed me a prescription mouth rinse (which does taste gross and makes everything kind of have a bad taste after you use it unfortunately lol) and clindamycin antibiotic to take for the few days before the surgery, every 8 hours. I haven't had any bad side effects to it (so far) other than some mild indegestion but after I started taking it with more water that stopped. (I did google it and I read some scary reviews of it online and of people having delayed reactions weeks later, so I was nervous about continuing to take it, but I am allergic to penicillin so that's the next thing they prescribe.) The morning of the surgery, which was this morning, I arrived & they set me up right away, he again had excellent bedside manner, asked me what kind of music I would like to be played, & took away my nerves right away with his upbeat and positive vibe. I asked about the antibiotic and mentioned the indigestion, he said if everything looks good when he started the surgery that I could finish out my doses for the rest of the day and then I can stop taking it. Don't remember much about the surgery after the gas & iv but I do remember it was painless I don't even remember the needle going in my mouth or feeling them pull my mouth open. Barely felt the iv needle go in. I'm pretty sure he was done in under 30 minutes. There were no issues & he said I could stop the antibiotics next day. Sat for a while to get back to normal, they brought my responsible party in and went over the recovery information, I made my post-op appointment & was on my way! Any issues I have had so far was some nausea for the first few hours after the anesthesia but other than that I have barely any pain, i'm taking 2 Advil every 6 hrs. I am a worrier & called the office multiple times with lots of questions about replacing the gauze among other things & the staff was always patient, friendly & answered all of my questions. Dr. Kirsch even personally called me later in the afternoon to see how I was feeling & to see if I had any questions for him. Such a nice man! The ONLY thing I can say that isn't 100% positive is just that they are expensive, so if you are paying out of pocket, just be aware & discuss pricing with them at your consultation. BUT, with that being said, for an issue like this, I wouldn't want just anyone to remove my tooth, I feel it's totally worth it to have the care & knowledge from one of the best rated oral surgeons to have do this procedure. Will update post if I have any issues or anything else to add! Best of luck to all! read more

Thank you so much to Dr Jacobs and Kelly!! I could not recommend NJOS enough. Everyone in the office was friendly and knowledgeable. The office is so clean, modern and comfortable. They were able to take me in right away for my consultation and schedule me the very next day for surgery. Kelly calmed me down and Dr Jacobs reassured me that the surgery would be a breeze. And it was. My apt was for 1:00 they called me in around 12:50 and I was in the recovery room before 1:30. No pain at all. I can not recommend them enough!! Especially for anyone who has a needle phobia like myself. Dr Jacobs but in the IV in no time I didn't even know it happened. read more

HELPFUL TIPS: If you have insurance, they charge initial visits as "d9630: consult referred by another dentist". The receptionist told me that's how they have done it for years. Consults are NOT typically covered by insurance and this code is most appropriate when you have a written referral. Ask for the code and check with your insurance company BEFORE you make your first appointment. I visited 5 NYU trained oral surgeons with comparable practices and this is the ONLY one that didn't bill the visit as a limited evaluation. They require a deposit to reserve surgery time. Do not use a bank card or anything with a high credit limit. If you end up in my position, your card on file will automatically be charged. I was so lucky mine got stolen. If you have wisdom teeth removal, general anesthesia is NOT necessary. You still have to get a local anesthetic to numb the area. So unless you have anxiety about the dentists, you'll be fine. The doctor refused to perform the procedure on me without it (it was more expensive than the surgery) so I had to go to another doctor. I had them all taken out in 20 minutes elsewhere, fully awake, and I was fine. REVIEW: I have never had to work so hard just to pay someone. I received a bill that was twice as high as I expected due to their use of the consult code d9630 even though I did not have a written referral. It took 12 calls, 5 messages and almost 2 months to finally speak with the one person who answers all the billing questions. Despite reassurances from the receptionist that I wouldn't get any late notices since the delay was on their end, I received two and the final one stated the card they had on file would automatically be charged in 10 days if I did not submit a payment. I left a message explaining to them that the card on file had been cancelled months ago and asked that they call me asap. I still didn't get a call back but the next time I called them, the office manager picked up. She immediately knew who I was and told me they submitted a claims readjustment. Here's the thing, she said they submitted one for a comprehensive evaluation (d150), which was NOT what happened during my visit. I asked why they would use that one instead of the limited evaluation code (d140) and she told me to contact the ADA. Considering the ADA doesn't field calls from the public (believe me I tried) and how long I waited to speak to her, I was surprised by her curt attitude. However, when I saw she submitted a claim for a limited evaluation like I asked, I knew it was because I brought it up in the first place. On the plus side, I'm practically a dental billing & coding expert now. read more

I had to get my wisdom teeth removed in an emergency, and I have no insurance. they refused to discuss payments over the phone and even before I see the doc. Moments before the surgery they gave me a bill for $2100 for only my 2 lower teeth. I refused to that amount because it's ridiculous. I luckily found a doc that was a little far from my home and paid less than half the amount. I would never go back and would not recommend for any one without insurance. read more

My daughter had her 4 wisdom teeth extracted last week by Dr. Kirsch. The healing process was much better than anticipated. I paid the extra fee for the medication to avoid dry socket and with the other prescribed medications along with the surgical method used, my daughter's pain and swelling were very minimal. The bleeding stopped within a few hours. I did not fill the pain medication and she barely needed Motrin. I would highly recommend this office. read more

Dr. Jacobs thrives on the impossible and excels at it. He loves what he does and it shows. He literally is mesmerizing, to be at the level he is at right now is astonishing. I'm indebted to him for the rest of my life for the work he performed on me, that finally gave me a healthier outlook and for the first time in my life a smile, that I now love to show. I knew he was a master of his profession, when I asked him a question and he answered with putting his hand on his chest and stating, "that's for us to worry about", I felt so assured that he was the right surgeon for me, and he proved it. The day I stop visiting him will be a sad one for me, as getting to occasionally see the man who changed my life forever is a privilege. I highly recommend his practice to those needing oral surgery. He's incredible, he's a miracle worker, he rocks, he knows his s*it! I am so elated that I went ahead and made the appointment to NJCOS, because had I not I would not have had this life altering procedure and met not only Dr. Ben Jacobs but Dr. Zachary Spitzer, who I cannot say enough about as well, they truly do work extremely well together, like two-peas-in-a-pod....I Thank God for Dr. Ben Jacobs, and will always think of him when I smile, always! read more

Great experience here. I woke up one Sunday with horrible, throbbing pain coming from my wisdom teeth. By Sunday night the pain was almost unbearable. That Monday morning I was able to be seen by Dr. Jacobs. I agree with a previous reviewer that said Dr. Jacobs has excellent bedside manner and is a wonderful surgeon. I healed wonderfully and the swelling in my face right after surgery was a fraction of what my sister experienced when she went to another doctor in the area. I had all four of my wisdom teeth removed and I was fine to return to work after a day or two. The reason they can't give you a quote over the phone is because they have to see whether your wisdom teeth are impacted or not / amongst other things. The surgery without insurance is pricey; however, when someone is working anywhere near or on my face I would rather spend the extra money and get a quality surgeon that knows what they are doing as opposed to a mediocre surgeon for a few hundred bucks cheaper. I had great insurance during this time and luckily they paid for 95% of it. Dental insurance did not give me any problems and processed my claim almost immediately. However, since two of my teeth were impacted I also had to go through my regular medical insurance and they had me jumping through hoops in order to get reimbursed. If the staff here weren't so helpful I'm not sure if I ever would have gotten reimbursed by them. Great follow-up from the doctor, and the receptionists/other staff members were super helpful in making sure my claims were processed by my insurance. read more

I had been experiencing pain in one of my wisdom teeth and was referred to this location for an emergency consultation. NJCOS was able to fit me in same day and I met with Dr. Adam Schuessler. He, and all of the other staff, were incredibly kind and helpful. I got a full mouth X-ray and discussed the process removing 2 of my wisdom teeth. I was able to schedule my removal at a time that fit my work schedule and got a pain med Rx to hold me over until then. I am writing this review 5 days post-op and have been healing well! Dr. Schuessler and the support staff did a great job explaining the process to me and prepping me for after care. The procedure itself was quick and painless as I was on NO2 with local anesthesia. Dr. Schuessler even did a great job getting my IV hooked up when my veins are notoriously hard to find (lol). The site was well run, clean, and conscious of COVID-19 protocols. I highly recommend NJCOS! I always had about a 30-minute wait time in the waiting room, but the care was stellar and I will certainly keep them in mind if/when I have to get my other 2 wisdom teeth out! read more

If you are looking for an Oral Surgeon, I highly recommend NJ Center For Oral Surgery. Dr. Jacobs, Dr. Kirsch and Dr. Farag are all highly experienced and have amazing bedside manner. The office staff is very pleasant and always willing to help. They have two offices one in Florham Park and the other in Caldwell which makes it very convenient! I highly recommend this office they are definitely a step above the rest! read more

My son had to get his 4 wisdom teeth removed. This was a fabulous experience, dealing with all the staff to schedule the appointments was awesome. The day of the surgery my son was nervous;but, 45 minutes later he woke up very "happy". We were given instructions by Dr, Jacobs and we followed them, By day 2 I had to look in my sons mouth to see if he even had the surgery since he was feeling so fantastic. He went back to his labor job on day 3. No bleeding since the car ride home and yes when I looked in his mouth I saw black stitches in all 4 areas! Overall great experience!! I highly recommend! read more

I can not say enough good things about Dr. Jacobs and his staff. From squeezing me in for an emergency visit (I was in a lot of wisdom tooth pain) to taking their time in answering all my questions, they really pride themselves in providing exceptional care to their patients. This is my second surgical removal of my wisdom teeth and I refused to see any other doctor. After my initial visit, I continued to have questions on my coronectomy procedure and Dr. Jacobs was available on the phone to guide me through any concerns. The day of my surgery he was there along with his staff reassuring me that everything will be fine. The recovery was better than I would have imagined and Dr. Jacobs checked in on me the next day. If you are looking for an oral surgeon, look into NJ Center of Oral Surgery. read more

I saw Dr Jacobs for an implant and my wisdom tooth. His office was beautiful, the staff friendly, and the surgery totally painless because he put me to sleep. Everything healed great and you can't even tell where I lost my tooth. Thanks so much Dr J!! read more

Do not ever bring a child to this practice. The doctor (BJ) was rude, disrespectful and dismissive and told us to leave if we didn't like his style of isolating a scared child from the parent. Never had a problem with any docs before and am amazed at this one's behavior. Sad. read more

Dr. Hirsch and Dr. Jacobs are top professionals in my opinion based on my experience with recent wisdom tooth extraction. The office staff made the insurance process easy for me. The dental assistants are awesome as well. read more

I am a nervous Dental Patient but after meeting with Dr Jacobs felt much more confident. He has the most caring professional manner and I felt very comfortable. I had a tooth extraction under anesthesia and just had my follow up appointment. Everything went perfectly and I had not need for pain medication afterwards. The facility is state of the art and you feel very well taken care of. Thank you for the whole team. read more

I was referred by my dentist as an emergency. Fortunately They were able to squeeze me in. The office staff was extremely pleasant and allayed my fears in terms of my insurance coverage. Dr. Jacobs demonstrated extreme empathy and skill. He even called me that evening to see how I was doing. I highly recommend this place. read more

I was seen in office today by Dr Jacobs. I went for a consultation to have 2 teeth removed. I specifically went here because they offer general anesthesia and I have severe anxiety from previous bad experiences. They refused to do the surgery unless I was fully awake. The doctor said due to my "body type" to which I said you mean because I'm overweight to which he said yes. He said he would not take on such a risk even though he agreed that it was what I needed. Instead I was told to go to a dental school which has a multiple month waiting list. Crazy I went there after another dentist told me I was on the verge of an abscess in both teeth. I was emotionally upset and was then told to go out the back door so I wouldn't walk through the waiting room. I am speechless that he would not do it even though I have been under anesthesia within the last year and been fine. Not to mention it took me a month for them to get me in for this consult and I was forced to get a panoramic X-ray instead of using the ones I just had less than 2 months prior. I left this office feeling like they had no intention of being helpful and like I was treated like just a number. My recommendation is if you have any dentist phobias you should not go here. Update: commenting adequate candidates doesn't neglect that prior anesthesia was done and physicians have been consulted. Never once have I been told a place that offers anesthesia won't take patients on if they are heavier. Your office should be prepared for any complication for the same risks exist for each patient it's just a higher risk of you have certain factors. If that is where you stand then maybe your office should get better information before making someone pay for a visit that you would never except read more

The office is immaculate, very well run, and Dr. Jacobs took wonderful care of my family. He has an excellent bedside manner and is a wonderful surgeon. I strongly recommend him for anyone in the need of a dental implant, general anesthesia, or wisdom teeth removal. read more

I went through an oral surgery today. Dr. Jacobs extracted my three wisdom teeth. The operation was scheduled at 9:50am. The nurse and the doctor were fully ready at 9:50am. After the operations, I followed the instruction sheet step by step. No pain, no swelling, I am very happy. The staff members were knowledgeable and professional. They addressed my questions about cost of the surgery very fast. They even called me afterward to tell me the exactly number. I am very satisfied with the experience. read more

I am very pleased with the level of care that my family has received at this office. Dr. Jacobs recently took out 4 wisdom teeth for my daughter. The procedure went extremely well and now she is feeling great!!! Dr. Jacobs and his staff were extremely kind, caring and compassionate. Everything was explained in great detail and all of our questions were answered before and after the surgery. Most importantly, we felt that the doctor was honest and trustworthy. He is a very laid back guy and he is very easy to talk to. Thank you for a great experience. I would definitely recommend this office for anyone looking for a great oral surgeon. M.B. read more

Went in knowing that I needed my bottom 2 wisdom teeth removed. He opted to remove all 4 despite the fact that my top 2 wisdom teeth were coming in well. After my surgery a second dentist confirmed the removal of my top 2 wisdom teeth was unnecessary surgery. I have since filed a complaint about Dr. Jacobs with the NJ Board of Dentistry. He is, essentially, performing unnecessary surgery for money. read more

What an awesome experience. I went in extremely nervous. Not so much about the pain of the actual surgery....but for the pain afterwards. Dr. Jacobs was sooo nice, pleasant and down to earth. He played some nice soulful music during the procedure. They took me as soon as I arrived (no waiting in the waiting room). The staff was extremely pleasant. The procedure took only about 20 minutes (if that) and barely any pain after the numbness wore off. Didn't even have to take Motrin for the pain. I had a follow up question the next day. I received a callback within 20 minutes. I highly recommend this place! read more

NJ Center for Oral Surgery - Oral Surgeons Near Me - Caldwell, New Jersey

Where do I begin? For years I had been putting off my wisdom teeth surgery because of such horrible experiences I had heard about the procedure. When it became time to finally get the procedure done, I was dreading the experience. This experience that I was so fearful of could not have been any further from the true experience I had with Dr. Kirsch's office. From the first time I called, they were friendly, efficient, and incredibly responsive (they were even more responsive than I was, which was amazing to see). I had my consultation on March 4, 2021, which was handled very efficiently and very safely (regarding the COVID-19 pandemic). Dr. Kirsch explained my options clearly and we decided that I should remove all four of my impacted wisdom teeth. Promptly after, I met with the schedule person, and she helped me choose a date for my surgery that worked with my schedule. (I was in and out of the consultation with a surgery date in roughly 30 minutes, which was fantastic considering how busy my personal schedule is). On Friday, March 12, I went in for my surgery. I have never seen such an efficient process in a doctor's office in my entire life. Within minutes, I finished filling out my paperwork was being prepped by the incredibly professional staff. I met Dr. Kirsch in the operating chair and he, as well as everyone else on his team, made me feel very comfortable as I was going under conscious sedation for the first time. The entire surgery took roughly 60 minutes and honestly felt like a routine dentist's visit (from what I remember). When it was time to leave, I was helped to my ride by one of Dr. Kirsch's staff members where she clearly explained to both me, and my guardian, the proper protocol for the first few hours of recovery. Within those first few hours, Dr. Kirsch called to check on how I was feeling, and against everything I had heard in the past, I was feeling great. I had very minor pain the first day, but by Sunday I felt as if I never even had surgery. The next week, Dr. Kirsch's office once again checked up on me to ask how my recovery was going, something I very much appreciated. I could not be more grateful for the efficiency and professionalism showed by Dr. Kirsch and his staff throughout the entire process of my wisdom teeth extraction. If I ever need additional oral surgery, I know where I will be getting it done, for I can be guaranteed I will be in good hands. read more

To my Doctor my friend,Dr. Jacobs. Once again has rescued me from a miserable and painful time with an abscessed tooth.His God given talent and choreographed moves of a professional athlete makes his visit painless and quick.I can't say enough about Dr. Jacobs and the entire crew. I never get on the computer and leave comments.But I just had too.Thank you Dr. Jacobs. (DR. JACOBS FOR PRESIDENT !) read more

Dr Jacobs saw me for my implant and it looks amazing!! I was very embarrassed about the whole process originally, but he did a great job making me comfortable and doing a wonderful job. I was put to sleep, had the tooth removed, implant placed, and tooth inserted all at once. I felt no pain and you can't even tell where I lost my tooth. I was so happy with the practice that I referred my cousin who needed a wisdom tooth out and she had a very similar experience. I strongly recommend this practice for anyone in need of an oral surgeon. read more

I saw Dr. Kirsch for wisdom tooth removal and dental implants. Very impressed by the professionalism of the entire office, front desk was great to deal with through the process. Received helpful text messages to confirm before appointments. Facility is modern and clean. Very happy with the outcome to the surgery, very little to no pain. Dr. Kirsch personally called me after the procedure to check on how I was doing. Would definitely recommend. read more

I went to this place for a wisdom tooth problem. In the past I have had wisdom tooth (2) extracted so was mentally prepared on what to expect. The office and staff are nice. The centre is considerate enough to give you an immediate emergency appointment incase you have extreme discomfort with a wisdom tooth. I filled up the paper work and all. After that the nurse took me for a panoramic X-ray which was also fine. After that was what happened that I did not expect. The oral surgeon (Dr. Jacobs) examines the X-ray and tells me that I need to have a 3D CT SCAN right now for him to come up with a treatment plan. In addition, I have to pay $225 for the CT scan right away because in most cases insurance doesn't cover it. The card they showed me listed the prices $225 for a single jaw bone and $400 for both jaw bones. They said the procedure would not take more than 5 mins. I was kind of baffled at what I heard as it did not make any sense. Like, I have mentioned earlier I have had 2 wisdom tooth extracted in the past and did not recollect the doctor asking me to undergo such a thing. This felt very unusual. I immediately left the office. Post that I consulted with two other oral surgeons to assess if I really needed a 3D CT scan and the response I got was "No". I finally scheduled an appointment with an oral surgeon (Dr. Sandeep Singla) and had my wisdom tooth extracted and I am doing fine. I would like to repeat that, Dr Sandeep Singla's office DID NOT CHARGE OR REQUEST FOR ANY 3D CT Scan or any additional unnecessary procedure as it relates to my wisdom tooth. I feel it is NOT FAIR to charge innocent patients for additional procedures that are not even required as a way to get more money into your pocket. This is not reasonable and I hope my experience will be useful for other people who will visit this office for the first-time for similar problems. read more

Giving this place 2 stars because of poor customer service. No issues with the surgery however billing department did not return my call and was generally unresponsive when requested to address the issue. I guess they operate just like any other business, once they have your money, they don't want to exert any effort to deal with your insurance company. Nice doctors, crappy billing/customer service. read more

I saw Dr Jacobs for an implant and I had a very positive experience. I was put to sleep and felt no pain whatsoever. My recovery was uneventful and my tooth looks amazing. If you need an oral surgeon, look no further. read more

My wife went here to get her wisdom teeth removed. She said it was painless and fast.

I saw Dr. Jacobs for an extraction. He was professional, well prepared, confident, personable, and efficient. Everyone at his office was just as great. The technology was impressive. I left numb, but happy. Dr. Jacobs was able to save the involved nerve and I was as good as ever only a few hours later. I was incredibly nervous, but he instilled well placed confidence. I am very happy and would gladly recommend Dr. Jacobs to everyone in need of oral surgery. read more

Had severely impacted wisdom teeth, and Dr. Jacobs handled them with ease and I didn't feel a thing. Highly recommend this place!!!!!

I made an emergency appointment due to being in severe pain, and from the moment I walked in I had a good feeling. The receptionists were pleasant, and it's a beautiful, clean and modern office. I was brought back to get a panoramic X-ray and to meet with Dr. Jacobs, and informed that I could have the procedure done that day. After waiting (which I was fine with because I was appreciative of being fit in), I had the procedure done and was on my way home not too long after. The healing process was pretty much painless for me, even having all of my wisdom teeth out at once. Follow up appointment 2 weeks later was quick and easy. I have already recommended a coworker. I can't say enough about NJCOS - I've been putting off getting these teeth out for so many years, and now I wish I had done it sooner! Thank you to Dr. Jacobs and the whole staff for putting me at ease and making the procedure so comfortable! read more
