I had all four of my wisdom teeth, completely impacted, removed from Dr. Tanabe. He had very good bedside manner. He thoroughly explained treatment to me and was able to answer all of my questions. He was very good at distracting me and made very nice conversation as they administered the IV so I wasn't even thinking about it. I had no problems after I got my teeth out and he was very courteous to call me twice in the days following to make sure everything was healing well. As for cost, compared to other oral surgeons I had contacted in this area, he was relatively cheap (getting all of one's wisdom teeth removed will NEVER be "cheap"). Overall, I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Tanabe if you need any oral surgery. =)
