This guy seriously needs to watch the movie the doctor, on how to treat patients very cold, and he doesn't explain what he is doing!
About Front Desk: Nice but really pushy about getting all of my wisdom teeth taken out.

Performed emergency tooth extraction on an upper molar. When he finished it was clear the extraction had opened a passage between my mouth and sinuses. I mentioned this and was immediately dismissed. Over the weekend it became an infected dry socket complete with vomiting due to the infection. When I returned Monday morning Dr. Christiansen was brisk, angry and completely insensitive. The pain was excruciating and yet he felt the need to berate me and call me a big baby. The anti-biotics prescribed were completely not effective. I had to contact another doctor to get the proper anti-biotics to treat the infection. To top it off Dr. Christiansen admitted that his family had been sick when he initially treated me and that he may have given me the infection.

Dr. Christiansen, Jessica and staff were welcoming, professional and just down right terrific from my the time I entered the office through my exit, post procedure! In fact, I even received a check-in call that evening to make sure all was progressing as it should!
I highly recommend Dr. Christiansen and his staff!

This doctor was recommended to me by my dentist after I mentioned that I was nervous about needing my wisdom teeth taken out. Dr. Christiansen was friendly during the initial overpriced consultation, however for the actual procedure, his bedside manner was appalling. He was impatient and aggressive. Rather than explaining the procedure and attempting to ease the anxiety he yelled at me about being very busy and having other patients.
Overall a terrifying experience. A degree from Yale should not give you a free pass to treat people like something you stepped in.

Dr. Christiansen is very gentle and caring. My children have gone to him for wisdom teeth extractions and other extractions (before getting braces). He actually called our house to check on his patients and to see if we had additional questions about treatment and follow up.
His staff is friendly and the office is clean and decorated very nicely.
I would highly recommend his office!

Dr. Christiansen is an excellent oral surgeon, I have seen him for an extraction and implant and both procedures went very well. His staff are all very friendly and helpful too. Highly recommended.
