Your initial appointment may consist of a consultation explaining your diagnosis and treatment options. Occasionally, surgery can be performed on the same day as the consultation; however, especially with a complex medical history or treatment plan, an evaluation and a second appointment to provide treatment on another day are strongly recommended.
It is generally advisable that young children, patients with extensive or complex medical histories, patients requiring intravenous sedation or general anesthesia, and patients with special needs be seen for a consultation visit prior to treatment to increase the liklihood that the surgical visit will be as comfortable as possible.
Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:
Our surgical referral card and any x-rays or images, if applicable.
A current list of medications you are taking.
If you have medical or dental insurance, please bring any pertinent information and a valid form of identification. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.

I highly recommend Riverside Oral Surgery, and specially Dr. Richer. I had two wisdom teeth extracted last Saturday, it went smoothly with no complications and I finished within 15 mins. The Staff are very nice and friendly too.

Riverside is the 92’ dream team of Oral Surgeons. They are surely a very uniquely talented group of professionals. I was held hostage by two hideously impacted wisdom teeth. Dr. Richer and company took excellent care of me two separate procedures. I have referred friends and family here and will continue to do so. I wouldn’t even consider going elsewhere.

Came here for wisdom teeth removal with sedation and all the staff (reception and medical team) were super nice and answered all questions/concerns I had! They were quick to get back to me when I had questions about aftercare/ the procedure itself.
IMPORTANT: All patients under the age of 18 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at the consultation visit and all subsequent visits.
Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery (i.e., diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are currently taking any medication (i.e., heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, bone density medications, etc.).
