Guys, I got 2 of my wisdom teeth out today, and I can honestly say that it was NOT bad AT ALL. I have been avoiding getting this done for YEARS (I’m 35 yrs old) and always heard horror stories from others… so, I used to avoid it at all costs. Well, I got a reeeeallly bad cavity in one and it was time.
I met with Dr. Clark for a consultation and immediately felt comfortable. He is soft spoken but speaks with confidence, he is a listener (which is hard to come by), he is patient, informative, honest, and very sweet. His Assistant Sharon is amazing. She is so compassionate, down to earth, and sooooo super sweet. I couldn’t believe that I walked out of there with a smile!!!
So, today I had the procedure and it was truly over it minutes! He is truly an expert in his field and is gentle to boot! How about that?! A perfect combo!
My experience couldn’t have been better & it’s ALLLL because of this amazing Oral Surgeon, Adam Clark & his assistant Sharon! If you are in OC & need either yours or your kiddos Wisdom teeth out… please, please look no further. HE’s THE BEST!!!

If I could give Dr. Clark 100 stars I would! He is seriously the nicest guy ever. I recently got my wisdom teeth taken out with him and was in a ton of pain. He immediately got me in and accommodated me. I had no problems after my procedure and am healing great thanks to him! Not only is he awesome but so is his staff. His nurse is so sweet and makes you feel right at home. Melissa who takes care of all the insurance stuff was so awesome and really on top of things and makes sure you’re aware of everything so you don’t have any surprises with what your insurance may or may not cover. Dr. Clark called me later in the evening after removing my wisdom teeth earlier in the day, just to check on me and make sure I was feeling okay! He really takes the time to answer ALL your questions and makes sure you feel comfortable! I could go on and on with great things to say about this office. I highly recommend them!

Dr. Clark was doing good job extracting wisdom tooth. I take out a star because of the billing confusion and the initial quote raised 50% because of their confusion with the coverage. You need to shop around before going there otherwise your bill will bump up.

Relaxing and no pain. I appreciate that those two things are rare when it comes to dental work (especially for the dental-​phobic like myself), but Dr. Clark’s staff was awesome from the very first visit. His team was professional but personable and when it came time for the procedure, Dr. Clark was great! He made sure I was comfortable, continued to check-​in with me throughout the procedure (tooth extraction), explained everything he was about to do and even put on some Adele (because I mentioned I liked her music). I was most impressed by the personal phone call I received later that day from Dr. Clark, just to check-​in with me to see how my pain was and if I was feeling «ok». I highly recommend Dr. Clark, his gentle demeanor and skill as an oral surgeon make this an easy recommendation.

Dr. Clark and his staff walked my son through wisdom teeth removal and from start to finish everyone was amazing. I would highly recommend Dr. Clark for any dental issue. He was highly recommended by our dentist and now I know why. Even after the procedure was done he was available to help out in any way to make sure recovery went smoothly. Thank you Dr. Clark and your staff! You all made a very stressful time alot easier.

You’re the BEST!

Although I live in Arizona, I retained my family dentist, Dr. Maria Abello in Aliso Viejo. Just before a trip to Italy and during a routine teeth cleaning she did x-​rays and found I had a cracked tooth. Because of my trip I waited until recently to get it fixed. I was referred to Dr. Clark. From the first call I received and through my first visit I found the staff and Dr. Clark to be warm and inviting. Since they already had the referral they knew what to look for. However, they started with an imaging x-​ray that scanned my mouth in a 360 degree manner. Next his assistant, Melissa explained what was going to happen. Melissa was warm and unlike other dentist’s assistants I have visited over the years she didn’t make me feel like a number. After that I met Dr. Clark. He gave me a preliminary exam and explained what my options were. Options you say? Most dentists tell what you need, give you a price and you are left in horror. Dr. Clark didn’t do that. Well, we proceeded to move forward. I was moved to a beautiful room that gave me a view of the surrounding area. I met his surgical nurse, Sharon and she was an extension of the team that I had already met. She explained the procedure, and even asked me what type of music I would like to hear while my procedure was going on. Dr. Clark did the tooth extraction and was as gentle as humanly possible. During the procedure he asked me if I felt okay. I told him I was fine. Finally it ended before I knew it. Sharon explained everything for my post ops and off I went. later that evening I received a call, from Dr. Clark, asking me if I was okay. I then received another call from Melissa, the following morning to see how I felt. Upon asking a question about the follow up visits she was warm and informative.
I travelled 360 miles to see my original dentist. Now I have a second dentist that I would recommend in Dr. Clark. However, it is not only him but his wonderful staff that made the experience one that left me feeling great about my decision to use his and the team’s services.

My 12 year old son had an ankylosed tooth that needed to be removed for orthadontic reasons. Dr. Clark met with us, determined that the tooth was probably not ankylosed, and removed the tooth with a simple local anesthesia. The entire office staff was so attentive, professional, and nice that I will recommend Dr. Clark to all of my friends, family, and neighbors.

After three years of experiencing horrible dentists/​surgeons, Dr. Clark was a breath of fresh air! What great service from beginning to end! I am about as chicken as they get when seeing dentists/​surgeons so Dr. Clark and his staff talked me off the ledge the entire time. Getting numbed up took longer than the extraction of two teeth combined. Super fast, efficient, and careful. Couple that with an outstanding staff, I cannot sing their praises enough!

Just had a #18 cracked molar removed by Dr. Clark today. My dentist, Dr. Alan Johnson recommended Dr. Clark, so I knew this would be a good experience.
I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Clark and his staff. This is a first-​rate operation (no pun intended). From the moment I walked in the door, to the time I left, I knew I was getting the best treatment possible and the best care I could imagine. In the pre-​op meeting, he took his time to educate me as to what my options were, his recommendations and why.
Another office told me I needed 2 crowns, which might later necessitate a root canal. Dr. Johnson referred me to Dr. Fife, an endodontist, who said the tooth was too far cracked to recommend a root canal/​crown as I would just be back in a couple of years with an infection and need an extraction. Dr. Fife chose to tell me what was best for me instead of what would make him the most money. Dr. Clark did a great job.
Dr. Clark’s office and operating room make you feel like you are in a five-​star hotel with a beautiful view out the window and his bedside manner will put you at ease. Not to mention, the molar came out perfectly and I am feeling great already. I highly recommend Dr. Clark to anyone needing a good oral surgeon in South Orange County.

I had three kids who all needed all 4 wisdom teeth extracted. Their orthodontist recommended Dr. Clark, and I was planning to visit two or three different offices to pick the best one but after our initial consultation with Dr. Clark I didn’t even consider looking anywhere else. This entire office is truly top-​notch. As other reviewers have mentioned, his staff is a huge part of what makes this office so special. I interacted primarily with Kristin in the front (who, God bless her, took the time to help me fill out all of those awful new patient forms) and Melissa (the treatment coordinator, a true gem). Dr. Clark is one of those rare doctors who doesn’t give you the feeling that he is in a rush to move on to the next patient (and it’s worth noting that both of our appointments were exactly on schedule — no waiting — so they evidently have an excellent handle on blocking their time). Dr. Clark spoke directly to my teenage children about their treatment, and didn’t ‘dumb it down’. He was frank and open about all of the normal risks associated with the surgery, and this was refreshing in that it actually assuaged any reservations rather than feeding them. He’s warm, intelligent and personable, and clearly extremely skillful as all three kids’ surgeries went off without a hitch. Melissa in particular was very hands-​on with my kids, engaging them in conversation and making them feel comfortable post-​surgery. The office itself is (as another reviewer mentioned) somewhat reminiscent of a high-​end spa. It’s clean, modern, and gives you that whole «zen» feeling. Not sure if it’s a feng-​shui kind of thing or if it’s just the natural result of having a team of such warm and talented folks. We are feeling very blessed to have been referred to them.

The entire staff was so very helpful and courteous from my first appointment to the day after my surgery! I would highly recommend for anyone to have their dental procedures done here. I had my wisdom teeth extracted here and I have to admit that at first, I was pretty nervous to have this procedure done. I knew I would have to go under anesthesia and my surgery would be a little more complex due to my age and that the root and nerves of my teeth were intertwined. I had never been under general anesthesia before and the entire staff put me at ease. Dr. Adam Clark made sure to make me comfortable as possible. Thank you so much to everyone at South Orange County Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery!

Just had all four of my impacted wisdom teeth taken out by Dr. Clark and I can honestly say it was the most comfortable procedure I’ve ever had! I hear all these horror stories of people dreading to get their teeth removed well look no further! Dr. Clark and his staff are absolutely fantastic. My other friends all have wisdom teeth needed to be removed soon as well. I’m going to all steer them in his direction. I live in Tustin/​Irvine so it is a little out of the way maybe 20 mins but definitely worth the drive. Most pleasant experience ever. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

I found Dr. Clark by just googling Aliso Viejo Oral Surgeons. I was going in to remove all 4 of my wisdom teeth which were all impacted. At the consultation he took the time to explain everything, even things i didn’t need to know which made me feel so comfortable. I cry just getting blood taken so you can guess I was EXTREMELY nervous. His staff made me feel so comfortable and safe, and when he came into the office all my nerves went away. They were so gentle with the IV and in no time I was awake and feeling fine. Everything went perfect, and to my surprise Dr. Clark called me personally that night to make sure I was ok. I have had a major surgery and the doctor didn’t call, this was just a tooth extraction & he called! Reminding me of my pills and when to take them. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone, and will definitely be going back. Best dental experience I’ve ever had.

This is as good as it gets!!! 5 STARS
Dr Clark and his staff exceed all expectations and have set the bar for customer service. The staff is outstanding (thank you, Karen, Christina, and Melissa). No attention to detail was spared. The office is clean and spacious. There is always something FUN at the front desk and coffee, for those who drink it. It is the friendliest doctors office, I have ever been to. OH… and they offer wifi, so I can work while my daughter’s is having her wisdom teeth extracted. The only thing interrupting my work is that I feel compelled to tell Facebook and Unilocal how amazing Dr. Clark and his team are. :)
How’s this for an oxymoron, «our family LOVES coming to the oral surgeon!»

Dr. Clark is by far one of the most talented and gifted surgeons that i have ever had the pleasure to refer to. He is not just a surgeon but an educator. I have had the honor to have taken multiple classes with Dr. Clark and have referred numerous complex surgery cases to his practice with great success. His staff and he are amazing, kind and empathetic to all concerns. The pracice exudes proffessionalism and class with clinical excellence, keep up the great work! My patients and I truely appreciate it!
