Most patients are not aware of the difference between a general dentist and an oral surgeon. An Oral Surgeon, more accurately referred to as an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon (OMS), has completed the basic four-year dental education as a general dentist.
Wisdom Teeth Extraction, also called Third Molars, is necessary when crowding prevents these Wisdom Teeth from properly erupting through the gum line - causing, what is most often called, an "Impacted" Wisdom Tooth. Your dentist, orthodontist or Dr. Jelic may have determined that you need a tooth extracted for any number of reasons.
Your dentist, orthodontist or Dr. Jelic may have determined that you need a tooth extracted for any number of reasons. Although the most common reason for extracting teeth is due to periodontal disease, the other cause for extraction are severe decay, root and crown fractures, crowding other teeth out of alignment, or are in such a position that interfere with additional treatment your restorative dentist plans.

Dr Jelic and team provide exceptional care. Everyone from reception to provider made my experience comfortable and stress-free. In my opinion, there are not enough glowing words in the dictionary to truly extend my gratitude and their professional/personal level of care.

I went here to get 8 of my teeth extracted in one sitting; 4 wisdom and 4 molars. Everyone that attended to me from the manager to the nurse to the Dr., were very courteous and made me very comfortable. They prepared me well in advance on what to expect so I could plan my pre and post extraction days. Dr. Jelic personally called me the evening of the extraction to check on how I was doing and made himself available on call, if there was an emergency before the next checkup. I highly recommend the Jelic Center for professional and quality care

Dr. Jelic and his staff are phenomenal. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable, from my wisdom teeth extraction consultation to my post-op appointment. My recovery was surprisingly speedy and painless. I did not swell, and I was back to normal by day four. If you are looking for an office that takes excellent care of their patients, Dr. Jelic's office is the best place to go.

Run, don't walk, to Dr. Jelic if you need your wisdom teeth extracted. He and his team are without a doubt some of the most qualified and experienced healthcare professionals I have ever been treated by. Scheduling my consultation was a breeze, and Dr. Jelic even sent an informative video about wisdom teeth extraction for me to watch beforehand. During the consultation, he and his nurse were very thorough in their evaluation of my wisdom teeth, explanation of the procedure I would need, and answering of all of my questions.

I was extremely anxious about receiving anesthesia and being operated on, but the day of the procedure could not have gone better. Dr. Jelic basically has a mini hospital in his office, and I felt reassured that his team had the tools to ensure a safe and smooth procedure. Dr. Jelic's nurses were so caring when prepping me for the operation, and they painlessly administered the IV anesthesia.

The next thing I knew, I was in the recovery area and wisdom teeth free! I just had my follow-up appointment, and I am feeling so grateful to have such a great team behind me as I continue to heal from my procedure. 1000% would recommend Dr. Jelic!

I am most appreciative of Dr Jelic and his staff's most thoughtful care- As an ICU physician, I was particularly thankful for Dr Jelic and his staff kindness, professionalism, and expert care. Dr Jelic is both a physician and dentist, and his expertise and management was most appreciated. The office staff was helpful and kind, and the office was in my view a state of the art oral surgical center. Again thanks to all.

Dr. Jelic and his staff were phenomenal. I had a fairly difficult wisdom teeth removal and I am so glad I chose someone with Dr. Jelic's expertise. All of the nurses and staff that I interacted with were very helpful and friendly! I am also diabetic and they did a great job making sure to safely accommodate my condition during the procedure. I definitely recommend this practice!

Dr. Jelic is very professional along with his entire staff. I had 3 wisdom teeth taken out, it was a smooth process and they made me feel very comfortable. If you're looking for a great worry free experience definitely go there!

Dr. Jelic and his staff are amazing and I would 100% recommend this place to anyone! I had a dental abscess and had to get my tooth extracted, which ultimately meant that I had to a get a dental implant. My case was complicated because I had to get a sinus lift and bone graft prior to the dental implant. Dr. Jelic explained the entire procedure to me and took the time to answer all of my questions, and he even called me after the surgery to see how I was doing.

As a grad student, I was financially strapped, but Dr. Jelic and his team were incredibly accommodating and worked with me to find a financially feasible solution without compromising quality of care. Thank you to Dr. Jelic and his staff for their kindness, thoughtfulness and excellent service!

I just had 4 wisdom teeth removed with minimal discomfort, couldn't be happier with the result. Doctor Jelic and his staff took the time to explain the procedure in detail. I was pleasantly surprised by a follow up call from Doctor Jelic the evening of the procedure. I would highly recommend this practice.

I had recently had a medical problem that prohibited me from taking penicillin. Dr. Jelic due to his medical background knew exactly what to do with an IV drip of special medication. I was able to have the oral surgery and I am healing perfectly. I don't know what I would have done if I was not referred to Dr. Jelic and his team. Thank you all so much.

Dr. Jelic and everyone in his office was great throughout our entire process. He put my 16-year-old at ease about her oral surgery. Everything went smoothly. Great experience overall!

Dr. Jelic and every single one of his employees were beyond helpful and kind during my wisdom teeth extraction workup, surgery, and post surgery check up. I am usually very nervous about going to the doctor or dentist office but they all made me feel beyond comfortable. I would recommend this practice to anyone and will definitely be coming to only Dr. Jelic from now on if I need anything done in the future.

I am so happy my primary dentist recommended him to me. I was nervous going into surgery and my mother said the first thing I said when I came out of surgery was, "Mom, they were so kind to me." I have always dreaded getting my wisdom teeth removed but this was one of the best experiences I've had with any kind of surgery.

I recently got my wisdom tooth removed by Dr. Jelic. It was a good experience and was made easy by everyone in the office. It was straight to the point which I liked because it's a very simple procedure. If I had any questions the receptionist was super helpful in directing my call.

Dr. Jelic and his staff in particular Georgia were absolutely amazing. My 13 year old had 4 extractions and not only was Dr. Jelic immaculate with the procedure the staff made her feel comfortable and welcome. We will be back when she needs her wisdom teeth out! Thank you!

I loved Dr. Jelic and his office staff, professional and kind. They explain things clearly so you can make the best decision for yourself. Even the receptionist is friendly and goes out of her way to explain all the cost factors in the different options. They even go out of the way to alleviate patients fears, since I am a BIG chicken when it comes to the dentist. that means a lot. I had a tooth pulled, the pain was minimal and the healing fast.

Dr Jelic and his staff are very organized and professional. They create an atmosphere where you know you will be well taken care of. I had 4 wisdom teeth removed less than a week ago and I've been playing basketball and eating normal food already. Dr Jelic and his staff explain things clearly so you understand why they are taking the prescribed course of action. His procedure was very precise and I've made a great recovery. If you're looking for an orthodontist/oral surgeon look no further.
