"Best experience to get a tooth extracted! Got my appt when I needed it, friendly staff, Dr. Johnson was great and fast!! I highly recommend going to Bird & Johnson. They also removed my wisdom teeth & another tooth in the past."
"I have had, counting this time, 2 teeth removed that 1 was cracked all the way down the tooth to root end, removed by Dr. Bird (90's)and #2 removed by Dr Johnson. (2024) I was sedated both times and when I came out of it was told all went well and to go with instructions till follow up and did this. 90's tooth was a breeze and no problems at all! Second tooth all was well( Broke tooth under Crown) with it too. Both Dr. and there are great at what they do and after listening to others people used this was a no brainer! Tech's Jessica & Ashley were real good at helping with assisting both Dr.s I had a few bone chips come through on first one ( This is normal especially if tooth is damaged bad. 2nd tooth will take longer as I am an old guy now and we heal slower. My advice is Dr. Jay A. Johnson. Professional , explains everything in detail to assure you of what will take place and the sedation was great for if you want or as with me he stated I needed to be and I totally agreed. Came out of sedation quickly and was on my way home to recuperate. Not only are they great at Oral Surgery but pricing was nearly 1/2 of what most people were charging huge $$$ for sedation. So if you need wisdom teeth or facial surgery Dr. Johnson is the man to see!"
"I would recommend Bird and Johnson to anyone in a heartbeat. They made my experience the most painless (mental and physical) I could ask for. Everyone was extremely kind and patient. Went in for a wisdom tooth consult and Johnson was able to relieve me from my pain immediately by extracting the main trouble tooth. I am very thankful for the whole office."
"Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Dr Johnson was awesome. Looking forward to having tooth removed by him. It was great to see Dr Bird. I highly recommend this office for Dental work. Pricing is very affordable. This is a top notch office. Had my tooth extraction today 8/12/22. The tooth had roots n my sinus passage. Dr Johnson was wonderful took less than 20 minutes. I have Absolutely no pain whatsoever. Barely any swelling at all. I’m feeling great now that the tooth is gone, it caused me so much pain and terrible headaches. Dr Johnson and his staff are so caring and helpful. If your looking for a excellent dentist to do extractions look no further."
"Dr. Johnson removed the wisdom teeth of all three of my children. He was kind & took time to explain the process to each one. The office staff was warm, friendly, and took time to make sure we had everything we needed for their recovery. I highly recommend Dr. Bird & Dr. Johnson’s practice."
"This makes the third time I've had to come to Bird and Johnson's for wisdom teeth extraction and so far every experience has been extremely amazing.. thanks for doing what you do..."
"Unbelievably experience! I had been putting off having the number 1 wisdom tooth pulled for months! Dr Bird had it out and two sutures in place in less than 10 minutes and I never had any pain. Did not even feel the shots of novocain!"
"Everyone is so nice and they Dr. Bird did an awesome job with a really difficult removal even though I was pregnant, they made sure I was comfy and even gave me a super soft blanket and I didn't feel a thing the whole procedure. The prices were also very reasonable. I plan on coming here for all of my extractions in the future. Thanks a ton!!"
"I reached out to Dr. Bird when one of my teeth became wiggly and I noticed a small bubble on the gum above it. I attempted to heal it by natural means with varying degrees of success. At about the 6 month mark though, I figured it was time to have it checked out. I called Dr. Bird because I didn’t have a general dentist, and he had performed extractions for myself and my husband a couple years prior. Though Dr. Bird doesn’t do the x-rays or evaluation in this scenario, he took a quick look and referred me to the general dentist near his office. Thankfully this new general dentist was kind and compassionate (as I have experienced dental trauma in the past and am beyond picky when it comes to going to a new dentist—you can read more about that on my blog). The general dentist confirmed Dr. Bird’s suspicion about the tooth and I will be able to now go back to Dr. Bird for an extraction and implant."
"I had a wisdom tooth pulled by Dr Bird. I did not feel a thing, not even the needle. Great job. Thank you!"
"Haven’t had a tooth extracted in about 15 years. Unfortunately due to a bothersome wisdom tooth, I would need one pulled. I was referred to Dr. Bird by my endo and could not have been happier. Dr. Bird was very professional, answered all my questions and took great care of me.The staff was absolutely amazing as well."
"Dr. Bird is a phenomenal dental surgeon. I was referred to him years ago by my primary (now retired) dentist, Dr. Lowe for some extractions. I have had the unfortunate genetics of bad teeth, so I’ve seen Dr. Bird probably at least a half dozen times. Each time he was very kind and very informative of exactly how the procedure would work. He removed my wisdom teeth as well... and while painful after (like many people!), he had a difficult and stubborn set to work with and still managed to do the best job. I always opted for the anesthetic (exact name is slipping my mind right now!) that made me unaware of the time passing/what was going on - hence no pain. I actually remember asking the dental assistant, “will he be in to do the (four) extractions soon? I think the anesthesia is wearing off.” To which she replied, “Oh, you’re all set. He already did the extractions a bit ago.” LOL.I’m sure I will see him again in the future because there is still unfinished dental work I need taken care of. Definitely wouldn’t want to go to anyone else now, and for anyone looking for a new dental surgeon, I give my highest recommendation to Dr. Bird and his staff."
"Woke Up in the middle of the night with extreme jaw pain. After hours of taking ibuprofen and still in pain I'm thinking this has to be exposed nerves as several my teeth were aching or taking turns aching. My dentist felt that my wisdom tooth was the cause and gave me 3 referrals for my selection of an oral surgeon for tooth extraction. I did my google research and selected Bird and Johnson, oral surgery and I'm happy that I did. The front office gave me an appointment to see Dr Johnson that afternoon, upon arrival the office staff was very professional and kind, I was surprised that I saw the doctor almost immediately and didn't have to sit in the waiting room for ever, I was impressed and amazed by Dr Johnson! He gave me a lot of time and actually listened to me as I described my symptoms and quizzed me for more info, and then he did a mouth exam that was quick and painless. After our consultation Dr. Johnson felt that my teeth were not causing my issues but it was most likely a nerve problem and that I should wait 2 weeks for an improvement. Wait and see where it goes - No surgery scheduled. I feel very fortunate and that I made a good decision in selecting Birds and Johnson. A Good doctor who actually listens and acts in your best interest!!!"

"Excellent Dr. & staff! I had a very complex wisdom tooth extraction due to my facial nerve being wrapped around one of them. Dr. Bird performed my procedure without any complications & I had a fast recovery! He took his time with me. Thank you Dr. Bird!Adriana"
"The entire office staff was very welcoming and professional. Dr. Bird was personable, and made us feel very comfortable. He answered all our questions during the consultation and went above and beyond. Definitely more at ease about having my wisdom teeth removed."
"I was recommended to Dr. Bird by my dentist Dr. Beverly Rose. She had referred my mom to Dr. Bird and her experience alone was fantastic. Both the staff and Dr. Bird are exceptional. I had severely impacted wisdom teeth that was causing me agonizing pain. Dr. Bird’s office was kind enough to move up my appointment during the busy Spring Break week in order to get me in and alleviate my pain. They were fantastic!! If you’re looking for an experienced, professional and amazing oral surgeon, Dr. Bird is your go to!"

"Dr. Bird and his team are great. Dr. Bird extracted my four wisdom teeth a week ago. Recovery was easy. No need for pain meds. Staff is super friendly, and everyone is in a great mood, even on Mondays! A bit cold in there, but they have the best blankets! Thank you everyone."

"Dr. Bird is the best! I took my 2 children for extraction of their wisdom teeth and it was a very nice experience. Very compassionate staff and doctor who truly care about their patients. I can honestly say that everyone in the office was kind and helpful from the first call to make the appointments for my kids through the final post-op visit. I highly recommend this oral surgeon and his team!"
