I had Dr. Hart extract an impacted wisdom tooth in Feb. 2008. I was in severe pain for 10 weeks. I am 51 years old and have never experienced worse pain in my life! Although I went back to his office for treatment twice after the procedure, I was never treated for the dry socket I was suffering from. Rather, I was given a prescription for an antibiotic mouthwash and several refills for my pain medication. On my last visit to his office, he recommended that I have my back molar extracted as well and that should relieve my pain. I sought a second opinion and was treated for the dry socket. I was nearly pain-free within a week and healed within 2 weeks. I later contacted Dr. Hart to let him know that I was dissatisfied with his treatment and he should be careful with patients with my symptoms in the future. He responded that he didn't think he did anything wrong, that he had performed thousands of extractions, and that he treated me to the best of his ability. He appeared offended that I could think it was possible for him to make a mistake. Under no circumstances would I recommend him. I think he did an adequate job of extracting my tooth, but his after care was awful. I suffered terribly under his care.
