Pena Oscar M DDS MSD

Blister in gum; dr. pena performed surgery; whatever he did, it resolved issue so I would definitely go back to him again. He seems to need the business since he was willing to accommodate me on the Friday morning the same week. Only cons were he does not explain what he is going to do though he does ask questions asked. When I asked for reason why blister happened in spite of my excellent dental hygine, he just shrugged and said he did not know. He seemed in hurry to finish up job and consultation and get it over with as soon as possible. His staff was quite nice and polite though they did overcharge me on insurance deductible but refunded after a few weeks when I pointed out overcharge

Dr. Pena and his staff are exceptional! I hate going to the dentist, but I broke a tooth and was unable to stay away. I was referred to Dr. Pena by another dentist and walked in terrified. Dr. Pena immediately put my fears at ease and I set up an appointment for the next day. I typically have a difficult time getting numb, but I had no problems here! From Dr. Pena and pleasant staff to the TV’s on the ceiling (really, how great is that?!) I was surprised when the hour had passed and my root canal was over. I wish they did general dentistry as well because I’d actually look forward to the dentist!

In early November ’13 had an excellent experience with Dr. Pena and all of his team. It was a first time appointment for me, and (like many others most likely)…I already had acute tooth pain and had quite an infection/​swelling. It happened on a trip (ugh!)…drove back to Tucson… not able to sleep, eat… not good! They got me in right away. The staff has a lot of experience in dealing with clients in pain… they were fairly quickly able to determine my tooth had fractured below the gum line and needed to be extracted. The procedure itself was the least painful part of this episode — in fact, I felt really no pain at all. Dr. Pena encouraged me to let him know if I was ever uncomfortable at all, and he was excellent at numbing the area, the tooth.everything. He is also calm and clear in telling you what to expect each step of the way (as were each of his team, from assistants to front desk and billing). Followup was great, including support after the procedure. My only wish is that I would have been able to go in sooner. Just do everything they recommend: take all the antibiotics, the ibuprofen (and painkiller if you need it), the special rinsing etc. (they give you a printed brochure after the procedure). All of that really does help your body to rid itself of the bacteria/​infection.
I would go back to him for any specialty dental needs: root canal, extraction, implants etc. Highly recommend Dr. Pena, and good luck with your dental issue. Yowser… am I glad the acute phase is over!

I really don’t want to be here, but my tooth hurts so here I am. Update: Whee. All done!!. I had an infected cyst on my root. So numbed I can’t feel my eye blinking, which is good considering what he had to so to get the cyst out. Only 200 smackers, so yay me. His office staff is super friendly and they understand that their «customers» are in pain and scared. The front office clerk kept me updated on the cost as I went through the process. The doctor was very gentle and liberal with the Novocaine. I would recommend this dentist for all your endodontical needs.
