OMG!!! If you need a tooth extracted, an implant or any major oral surgery, look no more! Dr Tillner and his amazing staff are competent, caring and will answer all your questions and schedule you ASAP! My 18 year old son, a college student, at Santa Barbara fell on his chin hard riding his skateboard and went to to Local ER. He cut his chin deep requiring stitches, fractured teeth and broke his left jaw hard enough to cause bleeding in his ear. The ER called the on call SBarbara OS and he never came in to assess my son’s broken jaw! We called Dr Tillner the next day in San Diego and his attentive staff called us back and after speaking directly to Dr Tillner they immediately assessed the situation and scheduled us the next morning to get his jaw wired shut. We drove down to San Diego that night and saw him at 9:30 am. They answered all our questions, did conscious sedation after an 8 hour fast and was resting and comfortablly on the heal!! That night Dr Tillner personally called my son to check on him and review his post op instructions. He’s not loving the liquid diet but will recover from this soon! My son is back in San Diego studying for his finals in 2 weeks! Thank You soooo much Dr Tillner and staff!! Kelly and Kyle💖💖

I got referred to Dr. Tillner by my dentist to fix an issue with my gums. Dr. Tillner and his team helped and guided me through the procedure that i needed and everything went very smoothly. My recovery was fast and my follow ups where quick and painless. I guess going to your oral surgeon is not so bad when they know what they are doing.

I'm so glad that I went to Dr. Tillner for my wisdom teeth removal. Him and his staff are amazing! I was very very nervous about having my wisdom teeth removed, but he explained everything to me as it was happening, and even told me exactly when I was going to start feeling dizzy! The staff members brought me a blanket because I was chilly before the operation... The nurse behind the desk even showed my fiancé and son where they could go to eat because no one is allowed food in the office for sterile reasons. Everyone was so respectful and I feel fine with almost no pain (my surgery was only 6 hours ago) I wish all medical providers were as kind and detailed as Dr. Tillner and his staff! I highly recommend him for any oral surgeries you may need!
