5 /5 David M: Getting a tooth removed is just not going to be a pleasant experience. Period. But Dr. Bradford and his staff will be the best team to work on you. No question. I moved around a lot (Army brat, then serving in the Navy, but also moved a bit as a civilian) and unfortunately have weak teeth despite all the tooth care I do, and so I have experienced many dentists and some tooth extractions—some dentists were horrible, most were OK, but no one is better than Dr. Bradford and his team. None. Dr. Johnston in Ruston is the best general dentist (root canals, crowns, etc) but he does not do extractions or implants (at least while I went to him) so I went to Dr. Bradford and found him and his entire team to be caring, personable, and professional. You will not find better care.
