Baker Lynne K DDS

If I could give her 10 stars I would. I came in as an emergency. The day before I left my general dentist with an elevated wisdom tooth that they could not extract. It was fused to the bone and much more difficult than anticipated. It was my first extraction ever. When I came in, the area was swollen and sore. I was terrified. She was very sensitive to my needs and gave me multiple injections after her initially numbing me up. She removed the tooth and put in sutures in 5 minutes. I highly recommend her!

This is the best place that I have ever went to for dental work. The staff and the doctor were nothing short of wonderful. They explained the process and what to expect. They took good care of me and treated me like family. I cannot emphasize enough how well I was treated. This doctor knew we was from out of town, I was in severe pain, was willing to work us into the schedule, and after the work was done made sure I had the right medicine to get rid of the infection and minimize the pain. THANK YOU . Truly the cream of the crop. You and your staff have truly been a blessing to me.

Highly recommend !! She removed a cyst above my upper molar and extracted the tooth. I had consulted 2 others prior to her and one of them told that he cannot operate it, the other never responded after my initial consultation. It scared me out, fortunately, I met Ms.Baker, I gained confidence as I spoke to her in my initial consultation. She removed the cyst and the tooth at one shot. It healed in a week and everything got back to normal in 7 days.

DON’T GO!!! I am writing this with the hope of saving someone else the horror and trauma that I went through. I had a molar that had two root canals and was loose. My dentist said that it had to be pulled. Lynne Baker was the only dentist available that day that did tooth extractions. She talked to me for awhile, then quickly got up and said, “We have to numb you up.” Without giving me time to think, she jams the needle in me without using a topical anesthetic first. I jerked in pain and she didn’t stop. After the first shot, I asked, “Why didn’t you use a topical?” She said, “I thought they did.” I told her it hurt like h***. She puts a Q-tip in my mouth, I assume with a topical, for about a minute or less, which should have been 5-10 minutes. Then she gives me another shot. I cried out in pain and she kept pushing it in fast. I started shaking from the trauma and pain. She said take a deep breath and without hesitation she gives me another shot without letting the other shots take effect. I cried out in pain again. I was shaking severely and couldn’t stop. She left the room for about 20-30 minutes, and then came back in. She said she would test for numbness and poked my gum. I said, “My gum is still sore.” She gave me another shot and I cried out in pain. She started pulling the tooth and I cried out again. She gave me another shot and I cried out in pain again. She pulled the tooth out in 2 more sections and I cried out both times. I felt violated, tortured and disrespected beyond belief. There was absolutely no consideration given to my level of pain and trauma during the whole procedure.
