Taking Out Your Wisdom Teeth

This is not something anyone looks forward to.  On Monday I took my daughter to get all four of her’s removed because they were impacted.  Impacted is a bad word when it comes to wisdom teeth.

At any rate, I didn’t really know who to take her to and I had to call Blue Shield and get a list of providers.  I chose David Baker, D.D.S.  Honestly, the reason I chose him initially was I liked his name.  That was it.  I mean I had a list of about 8 oral surgeons and for whatever reason David Baker sounded like he’d be nice.

So I called and spoke with Virginia there who was so very helpful and made me feel at ease. 

So we went for the initial consultation to the office which is located on Cinema Drive in the brand new medical building where the movie theater used to be. For starters, the office is beautiful.  

We met with Dr. Baker and he made my daughter feel comfortable right away by telling her what was going to happen without going into too much detail (thankfully).

So the day came.  Last Monday we went and the whole thing took about 1 hour.  I left there with the meds for her in a bag which was great because then I didn’t have to deal with going to a pharmacy.  Her recovery is going just as he said.  She feels fine today, just a little swollen.

So if you are in the same boat as I was.  Not knowing who to call.  Give Dr. Baker a try.

His office is located at 23501 Cinema Drive Suite 111 661-799-0700.
