Dr. Tenhulzen was referred to me for the extraction of a molar that bothered me for years, which suddenly become very, very painful.
At my initial appointment, I found Dr. T and his staff to be friendly and direct, without being abrupt. The procedure and costs were explained clearly. I was given instructions and Rx. I had an out of town trip the next day; the office called to check on how I was doing while I was away. Despite my severe anxiety, I felt I was going to be in very good hands.
The extraction was done the next week. I chose IV sedation because of my anxiety. I had absolutely no pain - not even from the needle going in! I got a follow up call that evening, followed instructions to a T and only needed one pain pill and a few Tylenol afterwards.
I can't recall ever having a more pleasant dental experience. IV sedation may cost a little less at other places -- but expertise, experience, and comfort being supplied by professionals that genuinely care for their patients is priceless. In the days that followed, I heard from several friends and co-workers who sung Dr. Ts praises just as highly as I do now.
