Dr. Gauger is simply the best! His skills, knowledge and care are exceptional. Implant surgeries, after care, consults, collaboration with other doctors when it involves patient's other medical conditions - all of this is superb! His support team is always on the ball, great work. Thank you for taking care of me over the last 8 years.

This is by far the best dentist office i have ever seen! Every aspect of the experience is on point! I have oral cancer and these folks treated me great and gave me the best wisdom teeth removal possible before my cancer surgery. My last wisdom tooth extraction i had at a different dentist was horrible! But Dr Gauger redeemed my faith in dentistry! Perfect job and appropriate meds. The staff is beyond friendly and welcoming and the entire machine is really dialed in. Much respect and love to these fine people! Highly recommended!

My experience with Dr.Gauger and his team was extremely pleasant! He extracted a badly cracked tooth that I neglected for a long period of time. He explained the process throughly and was quickly available to take care of me. His staff was first class. As someone who hates anything to do with oral work he made the entire process very comfortable and easy! He even personally followed up with me to make sure I was taken care of to the best of their abilities! I will be recommending his office for anyone in need of the services he provides!

Incredible oral surgeon and staff. I recently had a badly cracked tooth that was extremely painful and they got me in ASAP to evaluate. The check in was easy and front desk was extremely pleasant and helpful. The assistant who took me back to the room stayed with me the whole time and was extremely empathetic. She knew I was nervous and chatted with me the entire visit... she figured out I was interested in cooking so we bantered about recipes. Dr. Gauger is not pushy at all... he truly cares about giving treatment options. He reviewed my case and I felt empowered to make my own decision about removing my tooth. I wasn't able to have a driver so had the tooth removed with nitrous. What a piece of cake. His local anesthetic placement was very gentle. Minimal pokes and profound anesthesia! Dr. Gauger has a soothing voice and will talk you through the procedure. Amazing bedside manner! I felt ZERO pain during the procedure and it was QUICK! I drove from out of town to receive my care at this office because I trust Dr. Gauger. We went to dental school together and I know he graduated at the top of his class. He went on to do his surgical residency at UW and I did one ex
