Oral surgeon recs

Just making a new post so I wouldn't hijack the post below -- if you've had your wisdom teeth out in Austin, would you recommend your oral surgeon? I'd try to get into one of those studies, but I don't think I can because I'm on birth control.

Also, a second question -- when you go with an oral surgeon, is it your medical insurance that covers it, or dental insurance, or some of both? I was considering having this done before I started a new job, but then I might be temporarily without health insurance. TIA!

Re: Oral surgeon recs

  • I would recommend William Buchanan or Andy Quaroni. Dr. Buchanan removed my wisdom teeth and Dr. Quaroni did more extensive reconstruction on my maxilla (un-related to wisdom teeth). Both are wonderful and their staffs are great!
  • DH hates all things dental and he really liked Dr. Todd Eggleston at 24th & Lamar.  Not sure what area of town you are in.  And it is your dental insurance that covers it - not your medical.
  • Dr. Bookmyer!

    I have had my wisdom teeth out and an implant put in.  And my DH has had a tooth pulled out and an implant put in.  We love him!

  • I recommend Dr. Perkins with Hill Country Oral Surgery.  He took out my wisdom teeth, as well as DH's.  He had a great way about him, and even called us after our procedures to make sure we were okay.

    I had an excellent experience w/ Dr Perkins as well.  I had a bad reaction to the local and had to go back that night and he met us there.  We also got calls from him that night and the next day.

  • I just had mine out this past summer and LOVED my oral surgeon. His name is Robert Naples in Round Rock.
  • Dr. Bookmyer is great, he pulled two of my teeth years ago. However, he's in Round Rock and since I'm so south, I went with Dr. Karakourtis in Westlake for my other two wisdom teeth recently. They both get very high marks in my book!
