I recently had major dental work done and fully expected to experience some pain or discomfort once the anesthesia wore off. To my surprise, I didn’t need to take any pain medication at all because I had no pain. Not only was the procedure itself comfortable, but the healing process has been exceptional. Dr. Wood takes a biological, holistic approach to dentistry. He used PRF, which utilizes your own blood platelets to support tissue regeneration, along with red light therapy, ozone, and laser dentistry, as well as a recovery room designed to help the body relax and heal. The entire experience felt very thoughtful, and I believe it’s contributed to the rapid healing. I’m very grateful for the care and the holistic approach Dr. Wood brings to his work, and I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a more natural, patient-centered dental experience.

Dr. Wood is absolutely amazing! I had a tooth extraction and was pretty nervous, but Dr. Wood made me feel completely comfortable throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything and checked in on my progress regularly—even over Memorial Day weekend! His care and attention made a stressful procedure much easier to handle. I highly recommend Dr. Wood and his staff to anyone looking for a compassionate and skilled dentist.
