Orange County Centers For Oral Surgery & Implants

Dr. Rex Moody performed my double jaw surgery with Dr. Balasanian assisting the surgery. I was referred to him by a lifelong friend who had the same procedure and my orthodontist. Dr. Moody and his staff paid the utmost care and attention to my case. I’m lucky that I got to be one of his final operations before his retirement. He’s had decades of experience under his belt and the surgeons here really know their stuff. It’s only been a week post-​op and I have most of the feeling in my face and am recovering very nicely. I would absolutely 100% recommend this office for anyone in need of jaw surgery. Also, I practically became besties with the ladies on staff. They’re all so sweet and treated me as if I was one of their girlfriends.
Thanks, Dr. Moody and staff!

My son was in a car accident, and almost tore his jaw off because the car airbag did not deploy, and his face hit the steering wheel. We were so fortunate to get Dr. Moody that day in the Emergency Room. He put everything back in place and secured his lower teeth and jaw with wires. It is AMAZING how Dr. Moody put everything back in place. Next, we saw Dr. Caputo at the Mission Viejo office and he was so skilled. These doctors were able to save my sons jaw, and lower teeth !! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I recommend these «truly gifted «oral surgeons/​dentists to everyone! You will be so happy you chose to have them work on you. We certainly are :)

Day 1 after an extraction and I am so happy my regular dentist, Dr. Kelly McDonough, recommended me to Dr. Cummings and his team. Having only had a couple of fillings in my life so far I was very nervous to have the invasive dental surgery that is stage one of a dental implant started. But Dr. Cummings and his staff were professional, informative, painless and quick. And they made certain I left with a pamphlet on post-​surgery care with a sticker about my next appointment date in the front. In this long process, I believe I am in good hands.

After hearing too many horror stories, I was nervous about having my daughter’s wisdom teeth removed. Dr. Cummings was patient in answering all my questions and made the entire process easier than I could have imagined. I also appreciated his kind and efficient staff.

Ahhhhhhh needed to get my wisdom teeth out and I was so nervous. I’ve heard horror stories. I was referred here by my dentist and such a great experience. The receptionists were really friendly. Loved getting a confirmation call before my appointment. Both doctors were great from the whole process being done to coming in for a check-​up making sure everything was healing well. Definitely recommend. And in all honestly pain wise after was not bad! Didn’t even take my medication! Thank goodness!!!

This office does EVERYTHING right, and I have seen the doctors at both the Newport Beach and Mission Viejo locations. Professional, on time, thorough, patient, and overall a great place (if you have to bring your teen to have his wisdom teeth removed! Ouch!) I worked with BOTH Dr. Cummins and follow up emergency with Dr. Caputo (on a Sunday no less!) and they were each terrific. I am grateful that the process was so easy, and when my son got an unfortunate infection on a Saturday, the Dr. on call prescribed antibiotics, made me an apt, for 8 AM that Monday AM, and when Sunday rolled around and my son was worse, Dr. Caputo met me within 30 mins of my call at his office and handled an amazing procedure of infection eradication (which included an IV drip and much flushing and cleansing!) and it went PERFECTLY! 30 minutes later my son was already more comfortable and out the door! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I cannot say enough good things about this group!

What are the most feared words when visiting a dentist? ROOT CANAL!
I had a root canal yesterday, and it wasn’t my first rodeo– or second, or third! Yes– I’ve had 4 (maybe 5 RCTs!) And Dr. Cummings was by FAR the best person for the job! He was gentle, conscious of my comfort, my awareness… he was gentle and precise. He turned a really gnarly procedure into what felt like an hour at the spa. I’m NOT Joking! His front desk staff is fabulously friendly, kind and attentive. When I was there both front office girls stopped everything that they where doing and gave me their full attention. I felt so looked after and attended to.
The care was so thorough. Before the treatment, the consent told me everything that I needed to know about my procedure. During the procedure the Dr. Cummings and his assistant both walked me through every step of the procedure, explained things to me, and gave me a thorough understanding of what they where doing. The procedure was fast, easy and I left happy and perfectly numb! Thank you for sparing me from pain and saving my tooth!
