I started the process of receiving a full 6 implant set of upper Hybridge permanent teeth and all is going smoothly. The implants were just inserted a few days ago. The healing process is progressing smoothly and comfortably and the actual insertion was easy, quick and painless. I had some soreness after the anesthetic wore off, but I took some NSAID pain pills for one night only and the next day the pain became tolerable without any more pain medication needed. I am taking amoxicillin for 7 days to prevent infection.

Dr. Migdal did 2 extractions in ten minutes (no exagerration) 100% painlessly, The shots gave a little pinch but were easy to take. I have a slew of infected teeth, all with abcesses, in my bottom mouth and he is helping me deal with that problem. We are trying to keep my bottom teeth between and including the two canines intact to help me defer the expense of doing a full hybridge set on the bottom for five years, if possible.
This practice is worthy of a spot on Good Morning America!

I am 6 weeks into the process of receiving a full 6 implant set of upper Hybridge permanent teeth and all is going smoothly. The implants were inserted 6 weeks ago and are now close to being fully healed. There have been no complications and the implants are just sitting there feeling like they have always been there, waiting for my new teeth, to be placed on them.
Dentistry has come a long way at Gentle Dentistry!
Dr. Migdal did two more extractions and one restoration (filling) on the bottom in 30 minutes flat with exactly zero pain, but some good conversation. The dental assistant, Patti, was extremely competent and friendly. What a pleasure!
The surgical wounds are healing quickly and comfortably with no sign of infection.
I have been thoroughly briefed on the procedures being done at each milestone, in as much detail as I want, with accompanying xrays, treatment plans and a discussion of medical concerns such as possible drug interactions by Dr. Migdal, whose caution and experience have made me very secure.
The office staff is top notch. Mary does billing with professionalism, compassion and friendliness. Maureen is always a pleasure on the telephone. Jennifer, another dental assistant, and I share a love of Rhythm and Blues (the real thing). To all of the remaining staff whom I have not yet had the pleasure of meeting, thank you too.
Dr. Migdal and I share a love of science and medicine and are actually contemporaries; he is five years younger than I but 20 years more eductaed. I have been picking his brain for as much medical knowledge as I can wrangle. I am taking pre-med courses toward a Physician's Assistant masters degree at Pace University and he has, without knowing it, been contributing to my base of general medical knowledge.
