He explained everything, answered all my questions. Made me laugh. There was a chance of sinus cavity ruptured, but he assured me, he would do his best to not have that happen- it didn't. The procedure was quick (although I was put under). I followed instructions and had zero swelling, and minimal pain. I was healed for the most part in a week. Highly recommend.

I was referred to them from the dentist and made an appointment to get my daughter's wisdom teeth out months ahead of time. I spoke with them over the phone, gave them insurance information, several times, and was assured all was good. They never bothered to tell me that they were out of network, so none of my insurance benefits applied. And none of the outrageous bill I paid go toward my annual deductible. They lied to me on several occasions, regarding the acceptance of my insurance. And from reading through these reviews, I can see that's regular practice. That is lying and stealing from people!

First I want to say thank you to the entire staff at Renovo. Aside from having to wait several…read moreweeks to fit into their busy schedule, EVERYTHING was perfect!!! I now understand WHY their appointment book was packed with patients for weeks. From the moment we arrived until the time my daughter and I left, we were absolutely amazed and pleased with the level of professionalism, state of the art equipment, and the patient focused customer care. This experience all started with being referred to McHenry Dental Specialists from our general dentist for my daughter's large cavity. She was referred for a root canal but the Endodontist told us he couldn't do it because the roots hadn't fully grown. He recommended that we simply extract the tooth since the decay was so large. Next, we contacted my daughter's Orthodontist to have them remove the brace on the tooth in preparation for extraction. They told us, "although we respect the Endodontist's recommendation, we really need to do whatever we could to try and salvage the tooth". So, we sought a second Endodontist's opinion (and that's where Renovo comes into the story). I explained our situation to Alan Commet (doppleganger to actor Stephen Merchant), who introduced himself by name and not by "doctor". Soon, they were off taking their own xrays of the cavity stricken tooth (using a hand-held scanner similar to ones you'd see at Sam's Club). Within seconds (literally), Alan had an alternative plan for my daughter's tooth. He told us, "While we can't do a root canal, we certainly can save the tooth without having to extract it. I'm surprised to hear that you were told it needed to be pulled. I'm even more surprised that the other Endodontist didn't give you other options. We can do a procedure called an 'apexo-genesis', then fill in the remaining cavity the traditional way." Ummmmm, whaaaaat? Apexo-who? He proceeded to say, "Instead of rescheduling the procedure weeks from now (again, they're really busy), I will just fit her in today so you don't have to come back. We'll just get it over with. It'll only take me 25-30 minutes." He explained what the procedure entailed to my daughter (yes, to my daughter instead of me). He then said to both of us, "Any questions?" I loved that he directed EVERYTHING to her and made her feel her decision was all that he was looking for (not mine). It was so professional of him. Naturally, she/we said yes and his staff immediately started making contact with our insurance. Within minutes (no kidding...minutes), we had a full estimate of the damage. After all the xrays, anesthesia, drilling, etc. we would owe $156 out-the-door. WHAT??? I didn't have to sell my first born or give up my left kidney??? "WHERE DO I SIGN?" I told the office staff member. Soon, my daughter was kicked back in the chair getting all numbed up. He loaded her up generously and wasn't trying to be stingy. Before, during, and after, he would show his concern for her comfort. It was VERY reassuring for me and my daughter later verbalized to me how grateful she was of his concern. In true fashion, he was done with the procedure in just under 30 minutes. He took pictures during each phase of the procedure. At the completion of the procedure, he told us he would send all the pictures as well as a copy of the full report, the same one he would send to our general dentist, to our email. He went over some simple post-procedural instructions, told us he'd like to see us in 1 year for follow-up on the tooth's root development, and off we went. As a medical professional myself, I cannot stress how wonderful of an experience this was. Not only did they give my daughter what she needed, they gave her what she deserved...respect, professionalism, easy-to-understand descriptions of the procedure, sensitivity, honesty ("the shot will hurt but I'll be quick")...the whole package. He treated her as if she was his own child, intermittently stopping to ask her, "Any pain?" "Are you ok?" "Do you need anything?" "Would you like a break?" "Do you need suction?" In an industry where customer service should be the focus, the entire staff of Renovo was SPOT ON!!! I'd give them top honors in patient focused care. I will definitely go back to them for any future Oral Surgery or Endodontic procedures. Hope this review helps others. Take care and God bless!!!

There was one major difference this time, I was referred to THIS amazing surgeon! The staff, from start to finish and front to back, are perfect. I was so nervous and miserable but after my consultation I felt much more confident. They got my prescriptions sorted out and prepped me for what to expect on the day of my surgery (1 week, a very quick turnaround). The actual surgeon is the BEST medical professional I've ever interacted with. No exaggeration. On the day of my extractions he explained everything that was going to happen and really put my mind at ease. They knocked me out so efficiently I don't remember even feeling funny, I simply woke up with everything done! Leaving, I received a take home kit with all the info I needed, an adorable penguin ice pack to use on my jaw, lip balm to help with dry lips, and a device to spray medicine or saltwater on the extraction sites. They also called the next day to check on my progress. With the promise that I could always call with questions or concerns, our business was concluded. Honestly, I'm so grateful for the care I received here. I'm also glad that I'm now a patient here, If I ever need a similar service there's no question I'd come back here.

When I was told I had to go to an oral surgeon for issues with my 19 year old implant, I figured I'd go to Oramax being that my past experience was good. My appointment was 10/2/25 with Dr. Ads. I had an xray done and the Dr said I needed to have the implant replaced but being that he could tell how shocked and stressed I was about the situation, he recommended meeting with another Dr about possible laser treatment for the issue first. As I was leaving, I asked him if I could still get a quote/estimate for replacing the implant. On Monday 10/6, I called the office to ask if I could have the panoramic x-ray sent to me. Being that this is a big procedure, I just wanted to get a second opinion. I was told that I didn't have a panoramic x-ray, that it was a CT scan. I told her whatever it was that I had last Friday, can I get a copy of that. She said it would have to be put on a disc and picked up after 24 hours. I also told her I was waiting for an estimate and she said I should have that within a few days. On Thursday 10/9 I called to see if the disc was ready for pick up. The women didn't know what I was talking about. She looked at my file and said I had a panoramic x-ray and said it could just be emailed over (OMG, that's what I said the first time and I was told I was wrong). She did email that over. I then told her I was still waiting for an estimate since last week. She connected me to someone in the billing department. The women told me I would need an implant removal, bone graphing and implant replacement. She assured me that she would get me an estimate Friday (the following day, 10/10) morning. On Wednesday 10/15, being that I still had not heard from anyone, I called to leave a message for the dr. The receptionist asked what I was leaving a message regarding and I said I had questions about the implant. She wanted to know what the exact questions were. I told her I wanted to know the urgency to do the procedure and listed off a few more questions. She said fine and that she'd have the Dr call me. It is now Monday 10/20/25 and I have no received a quote OR a call from the Dr!! Very disappointing!!!!! I have read negative comments about the office staff many times but figured since the Dr is the one that does the work and he's always highly recommended, I'd continue to struggle through the difficulty with the staff. There's always a chance they didn't relay the message to him but at this point I'm pretty much done. I'd rather not spend thousands of dollars at a place where I feel disrespected.
