My name’s Jim. I live here in Colorado Springs. Well, I was running out of chewing surfaces and needed some help so I could eat. When you want things done to your mouth, you need a perfectionist doing that, and Dr. K did that for me. I have seven implants, and they feel like real teeth, they work like a real teeth, and all my chewing issues are gone. It’s kind of a modern miracle. Dr. Kunkel and his staff are — I don’t think they could be any better. Life is good.

Hi. I’m Ginny. I’m from Colorado Springs. Dr. Kunkel and I hit it off very well. He is so fastidious. He measures things completely; he explains it to you, and he’ll go into the depth if you want to know what he’s doing, you just ask him. I like that. It makes me feel that I know what’s happening to me. When I came in for the surgery one morning and it was done, and I had assumed it would be very painful, and it took all of two pain pills, and that was it. I have two new molars, and I’m fine. A friend called the other day, and they want to do one on her, and she’s back east, and she’s heard all the horror stories, and I told her I thought it was great; she should come out here.

My name’s Elizabeth; I live here in Colorado Springs. Pikes Peak Oral Surgery was recommended to me by my dentist, Dr. Robert Levens, and it’s the best thing that I could have ever done. I was nervous initially coming in, I think anybody is. All of the procedures went smoothly, without a hitch. The staff here at Dr. Kunkel’s are absolutely wonderful. I feel like I have my own parking spot, like I’m part of the family. They’ve come back to hold my hands because I was nervous during procedures. They’re always happy to see me, and it’s very comforting. Dr. Kunkel is amazing. He is brilliant, and I was very comfortable having him take care of me. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Kunkel to anyone. Now that I’ve had all the work done, it’s absolutely amazing. I feel like I have a functional mouth; it’s pain-free. I can eat what I want. I can smile a lot better and be comfortable with it. I’m very pleased.

Hi. I’m Veronica; I’m from Colorado Springs. I came to Pikes Peak Oral Surgery to get my tooth pulled and then also to get a dental implant. I also needed a sinus lift, and during that process, there’s a bone graft as well. I was definitely a little nervous. I’ve never had a tooth pulled. Everybody was very nice here, and so they eased any anxiety that I had by smiling. They were very calm, very nurturing, and just overall, it was just a very friendly environment. My interactions with Dr. Kunkel have always been positive. He’s so nice and just definitely put me at ease. He actually personally called with each of my procedures was done later that evening to make sure that I was doing okay, which was amazing to me. It really made me feel like he, he really cared about how I was doing. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Kunkel.

Hi, my name is Ron, and I’m from Colorado Springs. What happened to me is I had a major bicycle accident, road bike, and I went over the front, landed on my face. I was taken to the hospital immediately, and I was very, very happy Dr. Kunkel was on duty that day. He had to basically push and lift my upper jaw back into position and then secure it with titanium plates underneath my cheeks. As a result, at the end, I was able to basically bite and chew normally. Since my surgery, I feel absolutely normal. The staff is excellent, and I just really enjoyed coming here. Dr. Kunkel could be my son, and if he was, I’d really be proud of him. I would highly recommend him for any of your oral surgery needs; I wouldn’t go to anyone else.

Hello. My name is Mickey, and I am from Colorado Springs, Colorado. I needed to have some oral surgery — an extraction, and bone grafts, and an implant. Dr. Kunkel was just the best. Well, I had a telephone call, and then I had a little note in the mail to see how I was, and I thought that was very special. I would definitely recommend Dr. Kunkel to anyone that I could stop on the street who needs to see someone in his talent area, and I just think that Dr. Kunkel and his staff are excellent.
