Dr. Klein did a great job with my wisdom teeth extractions years ago. I have a tiny mouth and…read moreneeded all 4 wisdom teeth taken out even after several years of braces. He put me under with anesthesia and the next thing I knew I was awake (thank God!) and on my way home to rest and recover. The thing about the surgery is that some of my teeth were pretty embedded so I believe it required skills to extract with hurting me bc my mouth is so small also. The holes healed quickly and I barely had any swelling so overall I think he did a good job.

The oral surgery itself was very good, no problems there! I was offered nitrous oxide, which I had…read morealready taken 2 Ativan sedatives. I have extreme anxiety when it comes to dentistry as I've had almost every tooth worked on in my mouth. Negatives: The receptionist. This is the first point of contact which is supposed to be pleasant and inviting, giving the fact it IS a dentist office. She has a complete cold attitude towards her patients, and I was a new patient, never been there before. I engaged in a conversation with her to make her use her customer service skills, but she still hardly cracked a real smile. Very poor service from her. She's been working there for several years. Maybe burnt out? I even suggested this to her... Neutral: The dentist asst. She appeared to be of Russian decent with a very hard English accent, and her voice is extremely low, as if not really confident in her job duties. Very nice though, just not confident. I had to ask her to repeat herself with the after care instructions of a tooth extraction. Very good: The dentist. Even though his bedside manner wasn't the greatest, he did a good job and noticed where a previous Orthodonist had clamped my gums down to the bone, which was a horrifying experience two days prior. He stitched me up well. Over all, I've had better service, but considering the circumstances, which this was an emergency situation, it worked out OK. I don't think I want to go back again for a tooth extraction though :(

I have been hunting for a great dental place for many many years. A few months ago I found this…read moreplace, and it is by far THE BEST dental practice I've visited in my adult life. Every member of the staff is competent and thorough, going out of their way to ensure that I understand all parts of the treatment plan. PAINLESS needle work! I am a nervous dental patient and these people are so compassionate. I felt very supported and in very very good hands.

My husband is a peace Officer and many times is held over at work in the pursuit of community safety. This doctor required a 24hr cancellation or she would assess a 60.00 fine. Although I understand her time is valuable my husband can not predict when crime will happen nor can he take time to call the dentist office while fighting crime. She should be embarrassed to treat law enforcement with such stringent inflexible rules. That being said I never missed an appointment with this Dr. but when I refused to pay the 60.00 fee on my husbands account I was refused service and told to go somewhere else if I did not like it. I hope the community of El Dorado County will joining me in boycotting this Doctor especially if you are law enforcement. Thank you.

You will never find a dentist more skilled and knowledgeable about all aspects of dentistry, nor more meticulous in every aspect of his work. For those of us who were a bit phobic of dentists, his gentle and reassuring approach to patients helps alleviate any anxiety, while making us feel comfortable and supported. Dr. Gedestad also makes time to answer all questions in order to make each patient feel that our needs are fully understood and taken care of. I had my first crown work done today, and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome! Dr. Gedestad's wonderful staff helped make the process seamless, and I always feel welcomed whenever I enter into their office. I can't imagine going to any other dentist, and I not only want to thank him for the superb care he's always given to me, but I also want to highly recommend him to others!!!

Personable, fun to talk to, and makes it enjoyable to go to the dentist. She does good cleanings with almost no discomfort. She also replaced 2 old fillings of mine and was really adamant making sure I was totally numb. She didn't mind having to stop 3 times to keep numbing me. Even the injections weren't bad - uncomfortable but not painful. She also explains absolutely everything she does and what you should feel - so you're never caught off guard. Definitely recommend her if you're looking for a dentist!

I have been to numerous dental offices in Sacramento, and this was the worst experience I have ever…read morehad! It was a pleasant experience in the beginning. I have a very hectic schedule, and this was the only office that could get me in on the day after New Year's Day in which I had off. I told them I was a cash patient, and Courtney informed me I would receive 20% off for paying cash. After the discount I paid $300 for 1 filling. I figured Carl Herrera has had a practice for a while; I will take the chance with him and pay the $300 for my filling. I was never instructed on how to care for the filling, bizarre right. I was told if the sensitivity did not get better in 3-4 weeks to give them a call, and if I felt throbbing that I would need a root canal which was $1100. My teeth fit together like gears and once he was done with my filling and the numbness went away I could feel that my tooth was flat... None of my teeth are flat, but I am not a dental hygienist I figured they knew something I did not know. I give the office a call about 3 weeks later, no answer, no call back. I call again a few days later leave another message, and Carl Herrera calls me back. He makes the situation seem urgent and gets me in right away, that made me feel as if he cared. Due to the fact he works at another dental office, this office is closed Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. So he said he would open the office for me on Tuesday to see what is going on. When I get there he takes an x-ray, and explains that if there is any darkness above the tooth that will indicate a bigger issue. X-ray is done and there is no darkness, the tooth is good. He proceeds to make me bite down on a piece of paper, looks at the tooth and says "oh yeah, that is hitting funky". So he gets a machine and begins to file down the filling. After all of that he explains to me that the discomfort I have been filling is because I have been biting down on this "incorrectly filled" tooth, pushing it back up into my jaw which was damaging and bruising all of the nerves in there. It would take about 4 days for that to heal and after 4 days if the discomfort was still there to give them a call. 4 days later I receiver a bill in the mail for $90, and I didn't understand how I could be being charged for the filling being installed incorrectly. Even though the discomfort had gotten way better it was still there. I gave the office a call, and they were able to get me in that day if I could leave work early and get there by 5. When I get there they asking me am I feeling throbbing which will indicate you need a root canal, once again I say no it is just not hitting right. I tell him exactly where it is hitting he makes me bite the paper again and begins shaving the exact spot I told him. This time he also shaves some off of my bottom teeth... those teeth had nothing to do with the incorrect filling you filled. Once that was done I sat up and asked Carl Herrera and his assistant was there something I was doing to make this keep happening, and they both said NO absolutely not at the same time. That confirmed that they knew what they did to my tooth from the beginning was incorrect. As we walked to the front I pulled out the bill I received and asked Carl Herrera what the $90 was for and he looked at it confused then go on the receptionist computer looking for records... I don't know. Then says to me "oh, this is a mistake I will have Courtney fix it when she returns." Clearly he thought he would get an extra $90 out of me for his lack of skill. When I let my tooth almost normal, but I could still feel a slight touch. I thought I could feel that because it was bruised and need to heal again... During the day my tooth was and is fine it is only at night when I sleep on my right side do I feel the same discomfort I have been feeling. Today finally get ahold of someone in the office after calling 5 times over the past 2 weeks, and I get the assistant and the receptionist. I tell them I'd much rather discuss the issue with Carl Herrera so he can help me figure out when he could do the remainder of the adjustment on this feeling. He calls me back and says that I need to go see a root canal specialist to get a second opinion. I expressed to him that I am not having root canal symptoms, and continues to talk over me. I finally say I am the patient and I am telling YOU what is wrong with MY tooth. He says not my problem! I have enough time on my hands to fight for what is right, so I will proceed with taking legal action against Carl Herreras practice. If you provide a service for people, and you mess up you should correct your mistakes at any cost. Since you did not, I will receive a refund of my money spent the legal way.
