"I must say from the time I walked in to my appointment until the time I was wheeled to my driver outside, what a wonderful experience. I had all 3 of my wisdom teeth removed 🙃. The surgeon and staff are professional, courteous and caring along with very clean in appearance and hygiene.My surgery was a difficult one because my wisdom teeth were not only majorly impacted and deep in my jaw bone which is quite hardened at 37 years old but the teeth ran against my nerve. The surgeon explained the possible complexity and complications that could arise from continuing, leaving me with the final decision. I chose to move forward as I felt I was in great hands and man was a right!!If you ever need to get your wisdom teeth removed, this is the place to go!! Just try not to wait 37 years to do it!"
"I was very nervous going in for my wisdom tooth removal, but everyone made me feel so comfortable! Dr. Hendrix had my tooth out in maybe 30 seconds! His team made it quick and easy! I didn’t feel a thing, and was given very clear after care instructions :)"
"I was nervous about getting my wisdom teeth removed, but they made the whole process stress-free. The procedure was quick, and the secretary was so warm and professional. Great experience from start to finish!"
"I needed all 4 wisdom teeth out. Wasn’t very pumped about it. But they had me out within 5 minutes of sitting in the chair (so no time to dwell on it) and I came too in the vehicle on the way home. Somehow, virtually no pain ever. I would describe it as discomfort at its worst. I kept anticipating the pain to come but it never did. They must do great work."
"I had a wonderful experience getting all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed yesterday! I was very scared being put to sleep for the procedure since I never have been put under before. The team made me feel very comfortable and it was such a wonderful nap lol. It’s been a little over 24 hours and I have had very little pain. I would recommend them to everyone!"

The whole procedure was surprisingly quick and smooth — I was honestly nervous beforehand, but the doctor and staff made me feel very comfortable.After the extraction, the bleeding stopped soon after I got home, and I had minimal pain thanks to the medication they prescribed. No swelling, no complications — just a clean and professional job."

"I recently underwent wisdom tooth extraction surgery for impacted teeth, and I had an excellent experience at L.M.S.O.G. From start to finish, the team was highly professional, kind, and supportive. They took the time to explain the procedure and made sure I felt completely comfortable throughout the process.I opted for complete anesthesia instead of local numbing, and the entire surgery was smooth and stress-free. Remarkably, I was able to recover within just five hours after the procedure. I truly appreciate the level of care and professionalism I received. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of oral surgery.– Kumar Udit SaumyaPostdoctoral Research Associate, Purdue University"

"Was referred to have all 4 wisdom teeth extracted, impacted. Have never had any type of surgery or anesthesia. Dr Henrikson & his team were all accommodating and kind. Was under sedation, I don’t remember falling asleep and had minor after effects lasting about 10-15 minutes. Next day and very little pain, was able to eat mashed potatoes & protein shakes. Hoping to never need oral surgery again but wouldn’t hesitate to go to this center if the need arises. They even called the following day to check in and answer any questions I may have. When I wasn’t sure what pharmacy to use, she looked up pharmacies nearest to us and wrote down the address for my driver."

Once my anesthesia kicked in, which took almost no time, I didn't feel a thing, and had practically 0 pain or swelling on day 1. I'm sure everyone is different, but I'm not even noticeably swelling as of the morning of day 2. Just very normal and tolerablepain on one side of my mouth where the impacted teeth were. I was prescribed everything I needed to recover successfully, and I would return if I ever needed something like this done again. Great surgeon and assisting staff."

"I had a fantastic experience with LOMSG! I’ve had a myriad of dental procedures in the past year, and my wisdom tooth extraction was awesome. The staff was professional, the facility was clean, and I felt the was an appropriate amount of staff as well, in case there were any issues. I wouldn’t hesitate to come back, and I would advice anyone in the area to check here first."
"I had two wisdom teeth removed here and I think they did a great job! It’s been about 20 hours since my operation and I don’t have that much pain, only a bit of mouth soreness, but otherwise my appetite is good and I feel quite mobile. It only took about 30 mins to get two teeth out (the teeth were below the gums), so that was also convenient. The surgeon was very calming and the nurses were kind—I would definitely recommend this place if you’re looking to get your wisdom teeth removed in a place with as little pain or anxiety as possible."

"I had all four of my wisdom teeth removed two days ago. The top had to be pulled and then bottom cut out. Besides the initial wait of 40 some minutes my procedure went flawlessly. Minimal bruising and swelling, they gave me pain meds, antibiotics and a steroid and called me the following day to check up on me and any concerns I had. Additionally they accepted my insurance and I had very little out of pocket expenses even tho I did IV sedation. 10/10 recommend them. They are extremely professional, helpful and knowledgeable."
"They got me in rapidly to have a wisdom tooth removed. Normal nervousness about the procedure but the whole atmosphere made me feel relaxed and calm. I can’t say enough about this oral surgeon. The whole procedure was less than a half hour. The extraction took probably 2 minutes. His assistant megan was above and beyond wonderful. She explained everything to the T and made me feel so comfortable. That’s so important when a patient is anxious about the procedure. I have to say probably the best oral surgical clinic in Lafayette. "

I saw them once for a normal extraction, and then again a couple weeks after to have 4 wisdom teeth removed. From start to finish, everything was easy & so pleasant. I can’t say enough good things!!!Special thanks to Elisabeth & Courtney for going above and beyond to make me comfortable!"
"The doctor and nurse here are professional. They are also friendly in treating me. I used Sedative because I needed to extract 3 wisdom tooth (2 are horizontal). The doctor finished this massive surgery within 1 hour. After the surgery, I suffered way less pain than my previous wisdom surgery.By the way, I am a Purdue student and I used Anthem insurance here. The price was very appropriate: a total of $500. In fact, I plan to have my wife doing her oral surgery here in the future."
"Had to get wisdom teeth pulled since they had cavities that i ignored for a long time. Wasn’t in the mood for it but they did fine. Friendly staff, Ciera and Dr. Hendrickson were great."

Doc came in looked over everything and by 1230 had me all numbed up and I didn’t feel a thing. He had everything done within an hour. Staff was very helpful and professional they provided me with all the aftercare information i needed. I would recommend this office and Dr Henrikson for anyone."

My dentist referred me here & they got me in right away.The employees were all extremely comforting & helpful! They joked with me, got me a blanket & let my husband stay in the room until right before I passed out.They answered all my husbands questions & then mine when I called the next day. I never felt like I was bothering anyone.In general, an oral surgeon isn't somewhere I wanted to go. But, since I had to, I'm glad it was here!"

The receptionists were pleasant, the waiting room was comfortable, Dr. Henrikson and staff answered all my questions, the price was right, and the dental work was perfect.
