------ ''2006-10-26 01:34:37'' [[nbsp]] I had a really bad experiences in Dr. Tomaich's . I will never go there again. My problem was that I did not inquire other dentist's comment. He took out two of my wisdom teeth and charged me almost 800$ in my portion besides insurance part. My insurance was Delta dental and had a very good coverage under my husband insurance plan. It happened two years ago, although I can not find the exact amount I spent there, but those numbers will be my pain whenever I recall this experience. After I got the bill, I tried to contact the dentist several times, he would not talk to me, not anwsering any messages that I left to him. I paid full amount to him. After all, I was dumb too. Remember, you can always check with other dentists too. You deserve the best dentist and there is so much flexibilty related to the cost too. I like this website, we can see people's experiences which give others some idea about a specific dentist. Thanks for your reading.

2006-10-31 17:41:11 This oral surgeon treated my son when he had to get his wisdom teeth extracted. It went extremely well. My son was given light sedation and the procedure was done quickly. There was no problems with insurance coverage or billing. The office staff were very friendly, yet professional. I highly recommend this dental surgeon. —SharlaDaly
2007-02-06 14:04:15 I had a wisdom tooth extracted by Dr. Tomaich yesterday and had a positive experience — at least as positive an experience as having a wisdom tooth extracted can be! He and his staff were both very nice and very skillful. And yesterday evening Dr. Tomaich himself called me to see how I was feeling. Hopefully I won't ever require Dr. Tomaich's services again, but if I do I will not hesitate to return to his office. —AmandaSmith
2007-05-29 18:11:00 Dr.Tomaich and his staff are super friendly and very professional! He is highly educated and great at what he does. My experiences there were very positive despite the fact that I had multiple surgeries. I don't think I will but if need be I wouldn't hesitate either to be a patient of his again. —JamieWagner
2007-06-22 20:44:36 I'm in Davis for school, and had to get my wisdom teeth out. This place seemed the most promising because of the good comments and ratings.
The office is very clean, the staff people are very friendly, and I never had to wait long to be seen. I only had to take one X-Ray that was quick and painless since I did not bring in an X-Ray of my own.
The best thing about this place is that the dentist himself called me to make sure I was ok after my surgery. He also left a number where he could be reached 24/7, and I actually had to use it to call him because of some pain issues I was having due to dry sockets, which I'm pretty sure the dentist couldn't stop from happening. I really enjoy that personal touch and that I feel like I got my money's worth by being able to ask all the questions I wanted, and to have my dentist be there if I had issues. Overall, good place. —CAkita
2007-07-13 14:59:50 I had two bottom wisdom teeth taken out by Dr. Tomaich, and had a good experience - I don't remember a thing! He gave me a call later that evening to check up on me. However, I did have one dry socket a few days later, but was able to go in to have it treated right away, and the pain subsided. The staff is friendly, and the office is clean and tidy. I'd recommend this place. —at86

I had dry socket also, Dr. Tomaich inserts a herbal paste(?) into the socket which numbs the socket. Didn't taste that great, but did the job. -AmyLee
How was the dry socket treated? It's good to see there was some quick relief —StevenDaubert
2007-09-10 00:37:59 I have had my wisdom teeth pulled out two different (once uppers and second time bottoms) times by Dr. Tomaich. Both experiences were flawless. The UC Delta plan works well with Dr. Tomiach's office. Cynthia Sath's description of her own experience reminds me of my own. Thanks Dr. Tomaich!!! —AmyLee
2007-09-13 15:48:46 I had a nightmarish extraction when I was 17 (not at this office), so put off the second one 7 years! My lower wisdom tooth was impacted (covered up by jaw bone) and turned sideways. I had evals with 3 dentists, because I wanted the best chance at success this time around. I chose Dr. Tomaich's office because of his superior training, the great comments here, and, honestly, because when we met I could tell he's quite conscientious and careful. I'm sorry, but I'd rather have a younger doctor who is invested in what he's doing than someone with 50 years experience who is blase, with a "seen that, done that" attitude. My instincts proved right in the operating room. Dr. T worked tirelessly on my extraction, even taking multiple x-rays afterwards to make sure he got all of the root. There was still some left, so back he went to get the last of it. Not a picnic, but much better than leaving dead tooth in there! I'm a week out from surgery now and healing great. I know that I might be considered a tough patient, as I came in with some past trauma, asked TONS of questions (as only a grad student knows how LOL), requested being awake and only under local anesthesia, gripped the chair like my life depended on it, etc. Though I think I amused them a little, the whole staff was patient, responsive, positive and highly skilled. In summary, I want to give my HIGHEST recommendation to this office, and to Dr. Tomaich in particular. He seems to me to have the skills PLUS the caring to be a truly exemplary doctor. (PS—This is just my opinion, but I think I healed super well because I took lots of vitamins C, B, zinc and magnesium postop, and avoided sugary junk foods! Just FYI!) :) Good luck! —JessicaH
2007-10-11 17:05:01 I had my wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Tomiach and it went really well. He is really good at what he does. The whole staff was pleasant and helpful. A little while after my surgery my brother had his done here too, and all went well with that one too! We would definitely recommend him! —Danya
2008-01-31 12:05:38 Dr. Tomaich is an excellent surgeon. As a dentist, when I refer a patient to him I know they will recieve the best of care. I have the highest confidence in his ability and skill. He also has an excellent staff that are very friendly and pleasant to deal with. —DagonJones
