Sami Khayat, DDS

Best best best ever and worth it! To mention I have a huge phobia of dentist no joke. His receptionist were very welcoming and friendly, explained in details prices and helped as much as they could. His MA was friendly made me comfortable and explained what the process would be and details of procedure. Dr. Khayat, reassured me the process of the surgery would go as I wanted as monitoring the medications and myself which made a huge difference I felt relieved. He is magical the surgery went by so fast (although I was freaked out) he did amazing job, barely had any recovery time (as I followed all instructions). He is truly amazing and has a great staff. Strongly recommended and my expectations are high.

Bit of a late review but I got all 4 wisdom teeth out by Dr. Khayat and it was the best experience I could ever have regarding teeth! Teeth pain is my worst fear but Dr. Khayat was very thorough with explaining the procedure. I went with General anesthesia and had all 4 out in about 30 minutes. I healed great with ZERO pain and minimal puffiness on my face. I recommend everyone who asks or talks about wisdom teeth removal here!

GREAT SERVICE! Period! If your on Unilocal looking to get your wisdom teeth out stop here! So glad I did.
Let me start out by saying I was 27 weeks pregnant and on my birthday I couldn’t take my wisdom tooth pain. It was so painful that I had been on Vicodin for a week and it was not touching the pain at all! I called first thing in the morning and told my situation to the wonderful receptionist. She was so understanding and FAST. They didn’t need to see me because they were fully booked but they went out of their way to understand my situation and make it work. Thank you! She quoted me and worked out paper work with my OB to get me cleared. Since I am pregnant the procedure would have to be done while I was awake.
The dr is very honest with his consultation and is really looking out for the best of his clients. Instead of getting both of my wisdom teeth out we decided on the top right just to ease the pain and make the procedure less invasive then needed.
Getting the procedure done took about 5 minutes which I am so thankful since I was getting nervous about the whole thing. Dr and his assistant made sure I was comfortable and made the procedure super quick. A nice added bonus is the dr. gave me a call at night to check up on the procedure. That is much appreciated.
Happy to say that I haven’t even needed any pain medication!
I’ll be back after my pregnancy to take out my bottom wisdom tooth. Definitely going to a professional oral surgeon makes the difference.

I have waited far too long to get my wisdom teeth removed and I’ve been in excruciating pain over the holiday weekend, specifically one tooth bothering me. I had found this office on Unilocal a while back and had been meaning to make an appointment but never got around to it. I called this morning as soon as the office opened to try and get in last minute to get them removed today. I was expecting them to be too busy based on the good reviews.
I had already been leaving messages and speaking to receptionists at other offices for about an hour and a half, trying to explain my situation, in tears, but getting turned down left and right. I called every single oral surgeon on Unilocal in the San Jose area. It even got to the point where I was calling 3-​star reviewed places just hoping to get in anywhere. Still, nobody would take me.
I decided to give it a shot even though I was certain a place this great would definitely be too busy for me as well. The receptionist was so kind and she told me to come in for X-​rays in an hour and they may have time to take out the one tooth that is hurting me at the very least. I have an intense fear of the dentist (I know, I should like the worst customer that could be calling last minute) and I would really rather not come back to get the rest removed but I am so thankful that they are even willing to see me and try to remove the one tooth. Every other person turned me down, even while in tears over the phone.
Thank you so much for your compassion and helpfulness!
*UPDATE*
Dr. Khayat was fantastic! He was so kind and put my nerves at ease. His assistant was also very helpful, making sure I was comfortable. They removed all four of my wisdom teeth for me without question, even though they were booked solid for the day. I am completely amazed at how well the surgery went. I had absolutely no swelling at all and I have felt infinitely better since. I’m able to go about my day perfectly fine. Everyone I speak to is also amazed at how well I am doing based on their previous experiences. Dr. Khayat personally called to check on me later in the day to make sure I was doing alright and reminded me of my check up appointment on Friday. If I had to do this again, I wouldn’t go to anyone else. I will be recommending this office to everyone! So thankful for this experience. Huge thank you to everyone at the office!

Dr. Sami Khayat is the best! I never got a dental procedure done before and I visited him through Dr. Ghuman’s recommendation. It was as easy and organized as it could get. Visited the doc a week before the surgery, they gave me a list of items to stack up my refrigerator and the medications. I followed their steps and on the day they put me under full anesthesia and extracted all 4 of my wisdom tooth. Recovered in 3 days and back to normal. His team is the best. If you’re visiting him you can be assured you’re in for an amazing dental experience!

The best oral surgeon on the planet! Did a tremendous job with two of my wisdoms, didn’t feel a thing. Procedure took under 60 seconds. Thanks again!

Dr. Khayat and his team are amazing! I went into my regular dentist on Wed with an old problem tooth that started bothering me. (It was a root canal that I’d never come in to get the crown on… So there was no saving it) He told me that I needed to have it removed ASAP. My insurance ran out on Friday. My dentist called around and randomly found Dr. Khayat. He had an opening that day.
The experience I had there was amazing. Everyone in the office was wonderful, friendly, accommodating… The procedure was very quick and not anywhere near as bad as I feared. I would definitely recommend his office for any type of tooth extraction (wisdom teeth, whatever) I will be going back there if I ever need to have a tooth removed again. If you have Met Life insurance they have great rates.

I had all four of my wisdom teeth extracted last week. I wanted it done before I started my new job so it was a fast decision and the friendly staff accommodated me. I held off taking them out for almost two years because I was afraid but I am glad I went through with it.
Dr. Khayat was very understanding and the whole procedure went as smoothly as he said it would. I was sedated and the surgery lasted just around 25 mins and was completely painless. I was sent on my way with ice packs and rested for a few days happily. I ran into no issues, they provide you with post operative instructions that are very detailed.
Only advice I would give to others is to make sure you eat more often than usual. You diet will be restricted to just yogurts and puddings the first few days and such snacks are not enough to eat just 3 times a day — I realized that was why I was often dizzy.
Overall great experience for someone who was terrified of having it done in the first place. I highly recommend Sami Khayat, he deserves every star.

Dr. Khayat and his team are great. They were very good at answering all of my questions and going over all of the risks. The procedure took about 30 minutes and I ad very little pain. I would highly recommend him.

Got all four of my wisdom teeth pulled out a year ago. Everything went pretty smooth and the recovery was smooth! Dr. Khayat and the staff are very friendly and accommodating!

I first called Dr. Khayat’s office in January. While other dental offices I called said they could not give me a quote (not even an estimated range) before having me come in for a consultation (cost $ 130 upfront), Dr. Khayat’s receptionist not only gave me an estimated range, but also had their finance person take my insurance information to further break down my out-​of-​pocket cost, based on different possible conditions of my wisdom teeth. They provided information necessary for my decision without me feeling any pressure to go in. And they were very patient and understanding about my insurance situation because Dr. Khayat is an out-​of-​network doctor for my plan.
Eventually I decided to go in (one of the best decisions I’ve ever made!). I met the friendly staff Terrie (the receptionist), Dalia (the finance person), Noël (the surgeon’s assistant), and Dr. Khayat. The procedure & anesthesia options, the finance break-​down, and the pre-​and-​post-​procedure cautions were all very well explained. The whole process went very smoothly. Dr. Khayat does have magical skills — I only took one dose of pain-​killer in the recovery process and no swollen face at all.
I don’t think anyone would describe wisdom teeth removal experience as enjoyable but Dr. Khayat and his team made mine so. Thank you Dr, Khayat, Terrie, Noël, and Dalia.

This doctor accommodated an urgent request for an exam and oral surgery for an infected wisdom tooth!
Recovery was fast! Called 3 other places and everyone was booked and unwilling to help. Even our previous oral surgeon could not help us.
Thank you!

These guys are great! I had called two referred oral surgeons looking for an emergency appt. for my daughter they didn’t try to help and were not very forthcoming about anything. I called here the receptionist got us in right away. She was very conscientious about explaining insurance details since they weren’t preffered and what could and couldn’t happen. The rates were very comparable and affordable anyway so that was a plus and they made room that afternoon and took care of the problem right away all way making her comfortable and getting her out of pain. Really one of the best experiences yet with a dentist.

Dr. Khayat and his staff are wonderful! I had all four of my wisdom teeth extracted last year and I loved how smooth everything was, from the appointment before my surgery to care after my surgery. They gave pre-​and post-​operation instructions that were very detailed. I was super nervous to get my wisdom teeth removed, but Dr. Khayat was really comforting and answered all of my questions to ensure I was ready for the surgery.
I don’t remember anything about the procedure, which kind of freaks me out! But afterwards, they put an ice pack around my mouth and brought me out in a wheelchair. I had to go back there the next week because I had a lot of pain and wasn’t sure if it was dry socket, and they were really nice about it. Luckily, it all healed well.
Would I come back? Yes, I highly recommend Dr. Khayat!

Dr Khayat is everything you want from someone about to pull teeth from your face… kind, knowledgeable, and reassuring.
I wasn’t sedated; after the local anesthetic took effect the procedure took about 5 min a tooth. For those curious, there was some pressure, some pulling, and a pretty gnarly cracking/​scraping sound. Kind of freaky but doable.
I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing an extraction… not a fun procedure but if you have to get it done go to this guy!

I have nothing but great things to say about Dr. Khayat! He makes you feel completely comfortable. He was very informative and answered all my questions about the procedure. He made sure I understood all the pre and post op instructions. The day of the surgery I was extremely nervous but he made sure to ease my nerves. The whole surgery took less then 30 mins and I was in no pain after. He even called that night to see how I was doing. It’s been three days since the surgery and I’ve had no swelling and barely any pain. I would definitely recommend him to take out your wisdom teeth! I wish he was a general dentist as well, he’s that great!
Side note: He even saved 3 out of the 4 teeth he pulled so I could see them after!

Highly recommended! Very friendly doctor and staff, nice office, good location!
I’m glad our pediatric dentists (Drs. Philip and Gregory Wolkstein) referred us to Dr. Khayat for my 12 yr old son’s surgery to upright his molar (and extract his wisdom tooth too in the process). I wish I found him sooner for my tooth extraction and implant.
Dr. Khayat is very informative and caring throughout the entire process. He even called the evening after surgery to make sure my son was doing OK. My son trusted Dr. Khayat and did unbelievably well. My son didn’t have sedation, didn’t need to take any pain medication, and healed nicely and quickly.
Thanks Dr. Khayat and staff!
My son asked if we (meaning any one in our family — we have triplets) would go back to Dr. Khayat’s office again. I said definitely yes!

I recently got my 4 wisdom teeth extracted here. I noticed following things
1. Office staff including Dr. Khayat are very nice and hospitable.
2. Surgery was painless though I hate pinch of anesthesia in my gums but that’s inevitable.
3. Dr. Khayat called me night of surgery to make sure I am doing OK before he went to sleep.
4. Staff called to tell me complete cost of the surgery (insurance coverage) before hand and also informed me about payment receiving from my insurance.
Overall it was very nice experience and I will definitely recommend this place to everybody.

I got all 4 wisdom teeth pulled here. The doctor explained my options and exactly what the procedure would entail. The staff was all very nice and made me feel at ease.
When the day came to get my teeth out, everything went smoothly and painlessly. I would definitely recommend Dr Sami to anyone in my same situation.

I recently got my wisdom teeth extracted. Unfortunately, I waited a long time before I should have gotten mine out and they were severely impacted. It certainly doesn’t pay to procrastinate when it comes to removing wisdom teeth!!!
I was really scared to get them removed but Sami made the process very easy. However, they were very straightforward and answered all of my questions.
I highly recommend Dr. Sami. He was professional but in a kind and caring way.
