Provided by Doctor.comI personally have a fairly high pain tolerance but I was rather nervous going into my surgery. I was completely sedated before he started the procedure and the next thing I remember I am sitting it my girlfriends car telling me she got my prescriptions. Later that day I received a call from Dr. Tan asking me how I felt. I felt incredible given I had just had surgery. Any amount of dull pain I did experience over the course of the next week was remedied with the medicine Dr. Tan prescribed to me. He followed up with me a week later and set me on my way! I am very pleased with how easy it was to work with Dr. Tan and will go to him for any further dental work I need.

Provided by Doctor.comMy teenage daughter hasn't been able to get braces due to her #4 tooth being severely impacted above her permanent teeth. We were grateful she had Dr. Tan as her oral surgeon. He had to abandon the first surgical attempt as he feared it would compromise her permanent teeth. Against her orthodontists desire - he recommended waiting to give the tooth time to descend more. His recommendation was just what was needed. Almost a year later - that tooth shifted to a safe space to be removed. Thanks to Dr. Tan - that impacted tooth has been rescued. Braces....here we come.

Provided by Doctor.comI was nervous at first but Dr. Tan was very welcoming and soothed all nerves easily. He made conversation and is fun to talk to and distracts from all the needles that may scare other people. Guided me in all the right directions to lead me to a successful recovery and had minimal pain the day after. I was back on track to normal schedule three days after surgery with no problems. I would recommend Dr. Tan and his staff to anyone and everyone.

Provided by Doctor.comDr. Tan has been wonderful for our family. We have had two of our children go through the process of wisdom teeth removal with him. He saw us through from beginning to end with the highest level of professionalism and thorough care. He was clear in his explanations and always to time to make sure we were comfortable before proceeding. A consummate professional and a kind man. Thank you very much!!
