Wisdom teeth, also called "third molars", are the last set of molars to erupt in the mouth. When properly aligned and surrounded by healthy gum tissue, wisdom teeth may not have to be removed. Unfortunately, this is not generally the case and therefore, many people need their wisdom teeth removed. Your wisdom teeth are latecomers; they usually erupt between the ages of 17 and 25. It is important to visit your dentist when your wisdom teeth begin to develop so that he or she can spot any potential problems before they occur.

I was referred to Nu Image from my Dental Office, and I didn't know much about Nu Image. My Dental Office had 2 options for wisdom teeth removal and my Dental Hygienist strongly recommended Nu Image for my particular case. The office staff was great and very accommodating. Dr. Addison talked me through his approach for my particular case and also educated me on wisdom teeth removal in general. Dr. Addison and his team did a great job all the way through, AND he's very accessible after the operation for any questions or concerns. Definitely would recommend Nu Image and Dr. Addison!

I got all four of my wisdom teeth extracted by Dr. Addison. From what I understand mine was a complicated situation since all four of my teeth were impacted, two were infused with the jaw bone, and one or two teeth were very close to a nerve. Despite this, I had a great experience. Julia made feel very comfortable with warm blankets and calmed me before the surgery. Dr Addison did a great job despite this being a difficult surgery and I did not feel a thing during the surgery. Afterwards, I got chocolate ice cream and the post operation instructions were very clearly given to the friend who came with me. One day later, I have very less swelling and almost no bleeding. Overall this team was the best and I could not have had a better experience!

My daughter had 4 wisdom teeth removed last week. The process was very easy. Their office was nice and clean and their staff was wonderful. Dr. Addison and Ana did an excellent job caring for my daughter. This was her first procedure ever and she was quite nervous. The staff made her feel comfortable and she did great! She has recovered very quickly with little to no pain or discomfort. I would highly recommend Nu Image to anyone needing their wisdom teeth removed. Thank you!

If you are looking for a great periodontal office look no further. Dr. Jimenez and his staff are all awesome. Dr. Jimenez takes the time to explain all the details to you of what your options are and then does a wonderful job every time! I have had three gum implants that have all worked out well. Patti Rice who is the lead surgical assistant for Dr. Jimenez is one of the most caring people that I have ever met. Patti makes you feel so comfortable from the minute you arrive until you leave. Dr. Jimenez and Patti make a terrific team. Everyone in the office starting with Lauren, the receptionist go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. I just can't say enough wonderful things about this office.

Dr. Addison was great, I just wish I could say the same about my experience at this office (regarding other staff). At my consultation, his assistant showed my medical chart to another patient. I guess because she didn't think my face matched a name as foreign as mine. I was so shocked, I have never had a med tech who was unable to either pronounce my name or find me in the waiting room SHOW my chart to another patient.
I heard her say to the other patient, "Is this you?". The receptionist tried to brush it off and say it was because I was in the back corner but prior to calling me, the same tech called another patient and came out the door closest to where I was sitting. She made direct eye contact with me and I even smiled (with my eyes because of the mask). I think it's safe to assume she wasn't expecting someone as dark as I am to have my name.
She asked the only other person she thought could possess my name. That lady was actually there waiting on a patient to finish up (she was waiting well before I arrived, the tech could've inferred it wasn't her she was looking for). I was just so shocked and speechless. After we went to the back, she started asking me questions about my name and where I got it from.
This was a very upsetting experience. At least other med techs attempt my name, this one just seemed shock that I was dark African. Lol. This was my second ever procedure under general anesthesia, they walk you out the side door with the support of 2 small techs. What happened to pushing you out in a wheel chair?! Although I was groggy, I remember hearing the agitation in one of the tech's voice whilst she tried to tell me how to walk so I don't fall. Hopefully I will not require anymore dental surgeries, if so, I'd pay double to have Dr. Addison perform it at another office.

Dr. Addison is his team are nothing short of amazing. From the consultation to walking out my experience was great. Dr. Addison was very clear about my procedure he even got me in a week earlier than scheduled. My anxiety of being sedated is gone as his staff soothe me and talked me through everything. Very professional, knowledgeable, and precise. I would recommend to anyone in need of major dental work. Five stars isn't good enough they would get 10/10 from me.

I was very nervous about getting my wisdom teeth removed but I knew it would be worse if I tried to wait longer. The Nu Image staff were very friendly and communicated openly with me about my concerns or any other details. My surgeon, Dr. Samuel Addison, was an absolute delight and a brilliant man. He allowed me to clearly see what was being done, the risks involved, and the steps to take afterward.
While I was scared to have surgery, I knew this was the best option and surgeon for me. I would recommend this establishment and Dr. Addison in a heartbeat to anyone looking for oral or dental surgery. Thank you to everyone at Nu Image for taking such great care of me!

My total experience with this practice was simply superb. From scheduling the appointment to post oral surgery, every person involved was so polite, helpful and demonstrated genuine care. My son had his wisdom teeth removed and it was not the simple textbook procedure. It was a very complicated case that could have resulted in serious side effects. Dr. Addison and his team rose to the challenge and conquered it.
He is a phenomenal skillful surgeon and his team is amazing. I was greatly impressed how they didn't see my son as just another patient but as a person that was in need of their help and expertise. It certainly soothed this nervous mama. Dr. Addison took the time to thoroughly explain my son's case, listen to my concerns and answered every question.
It was very obvious he has a true passion for his profession. The personal touch did not stop once the surgery was over. Dr. Addison took the time to personally check on my son the day(s) after the surgery and anytime I contacted Nu Image with questions regarding his recovery, Dr. Addison assistant returned my call immediately. I'm so grateful for Nu Image, Dr. Addison and his team for making this such a comforting and pleasant experience for my son. If could give them a review score of ten stars, they definitely would have my vote.

I could not have been more pleased with my experience with Dr. Samuel Addison at NuImage. The service that I received from Dr. Addison was excellent. I had my wisdom tooth removed; and, I have been pain free. Also, Neelam, his surgical assistant, was wonderful and helpful. I received a call from Dr. Addison this morning to check on me. That was very thoughtful of him to do that. I highly recommend Dr. Addison!

My daughter visited the Nu Image office at Falls of Neuse Rd, Raleigh in 2018 for teeth removal and we had a wonderful experience with Dr. Addison and his surgical assistant Ms. Neelam. Even though my daughters Orthodontist referred her to a different surgical center for extraction of her wisdom tooth, my daughter and I were comfortable with Dr. Addison and Ms. Neelam with there professionalism and experience.
My daughter has her wisdom tooth surgically removed in December 2021 with the same team again. We were extremely satisfied with both visits and happy to refer my family and friends.

I really can't say enough good things about this practice. Everyone from the receptionist to the assistants to the Dr herself were so kind and caring for me as the patient. Dr Petraszko was an amazing surgeon! She is so skilled at what she does and as the patient she gave me a great sense of confidence trusting her with my procedure. Coronectomy's and full extractions aren't something I was looking forward to having done but I felt more than comfortable choosing her to do them. MJ was an awesome assistant I was so blessed to have my care in her hands!
She knows exactly what she's doing. A great mix of welcoming the patient and making them feel at ease all while being informative and professional. A truly great person to chat with! I had the pleasure of speaking with Marie and Kaitlyn at the front who worked so patiently with my scheduling and even rescheduling and when they couldn't get ahold of me sent a text promptly so I could get my surgery moved up! I couldn't have picked a better team to take care of me. Truly a patient first practice!

Dr. Addison did a good job with my mouth. I had four almost fully grown wisdom teeth: two top, two bottom. As far as I can tell, they're all gone. The operation was relatively quick- they already had my x-rays and whatever else they needed, all I had to do was go in, sign a couple papers, and give them my driver's license and insurance card to copy. Dr. Addison's a pretty cool guy, he explained the risks and benefits quickly but effectively, and had me in and out within about an hour to an hour and a half, which is surprising considering how much he had to pull out of my mouth. Anyways, the surgery was a success. Now I'm on the road to recovery, wish me luck!

I was initially directed to Nu Image after being very skeptical about removing my wisdom teeth. I irresponsibly waited a couple of years before actually taking my dentist's advice about going to see an oral surgeon and at that appointment I realized I should have scheduled an appointment much sooner. I was warmly welcomed by the Nu Image staff and Dr. Addison who carefully explained my CT scan, the placement of my nerves, and the risks with deciding to proceed with surgery.
I immediately trusted Dr. Addison because it was clear that he paid attention to detail and I walked out feeling nervous but fully informed about the procedure that I signed up for. Months later I had the procedure with Dr. Addison and had minimal swelling with well controlled pain after removing all four of my impacted wisdom teeth. Dr. Addison even took a picture of my nerve to show me that it was safely preserved. Lastly, he called the following morning to ensure that I was doing okay and to answer my questions about follow up care and that helped ensure that my healing process went okay.
I'd definitely recommend Dr. Addison and the Nu Image staff to my closest family members and friends. I feel much better after being so afraid of having this procedure done and I'm thankful I was able to get it done with such an excellent staff!

I went to Nu Image to have two risky extractions done. I can't say enough great things about my experience. Dr. Addison was my surgeon. He is extremely thorough and professional. He was transparent from the beginning and let me know exactly what the risks would be and didn't omit any information. The surgery ended up being a success because of his precision. I would recommend anyone who is looking for an oral surgeon in the Raleigh area to give Nu Image a call.

Dr Addison at Nu Image Surgical & Dental Implant Center performed my oral surgery. I was anxious about the surgery but everyone at Nu Image was very pleasant and helpful. I had several interactions with Customer Service (including a very knowledgeable and helpful insurance rep) and the medical support staff. But that wouldn't matter if the surgery hadn't gone well. Dr Addison said his goal was to do it as atraumatically as possible, and I think he did just that. I had very little swelling and managed with the OTC pain relief. I didn't have any problems but his follow-up call was much appreciated. Highly recommend.

Dr. Addison was the oral surgeon who removed all 4 of my wisdom teeth. Dental assistant with the glasses and bandana was super kind and made me feel comfortable before going into surgery. Surgery went by so quick and I was home resting comfortably. Dr. Addison called me the next morning to see how I was doing and made sure we stayed in contact just in case anything occurs which I think makes a great doctor. I highly recommend Dr. Addison for any dental procedure because he cares for you as a patient just like how he did for me.
