The worst dental experience ever!! The staff is rude, inattentive, and unknowledgeable. My visit to the Oral Surgeon was the most frightening and painful experience I have ever endured. There was no consultation or explanation of the events to follow from the assistant or Doctor. The only question they asked me was "what teeth are we supposed to be pulling?". After taking several shots to numb the pain they made me wait so long the numbness was wearing off before the extraction took place. Before more shots were endured I asked if I could please get some gas. The Doctor coped an attitude and finally decided to tell me what options I could have chosen before the surgery. After moving me to a room that had gas, the doctor proceeded to extract my lower impacted wisdom tooth. There was a piece of tooth that he could not remove so he sewed me up and told me if I have problems with it, at least I know what it is!?! While extracting the upper impacted wisdom tooth I started to scream "I can feel that". The doctor disagreed with me and proceeded to extract the tooth anyway. After all of that, the doctor finally acknowledged that I was not lying about the pain and pumped 3 more shots into my gums. The assistant rushed me out of the room while briefly explaining my home care treatment. The doctor prescribed me Penicillin (because of risk of infection from the piece of tooth he left in) Motrin 600 (I got Motrin 800 from a Doc. when I stubbed my big toe), and 10 of the lowest dosage of Vicodin he could possibly give me!?! WTF!?! Since the surgery, I have been in constant pain and also have dry socket to go with the lack of medication and supplies they sent home with me. Please do NOT subject yourself to Dupuis Dental. I had the other 2 Wisdom teeth extracted in the past by dental students who were more caring, knowledgeable, and less painful.
