They’re clear, helpful, and direct when discussing treatments and pricing. Definitely recommend.”

” I am so grateful to Dr. O’Connor and his staff as I have had some dental work done that wasn’t good. I spoke with many dentists before deciding to have Dr. O’Connor do the work I needed. Dr. O’Connor told me about the procedure and cost. He answered all my questions and was upfront with what I could expect. I am impressed with the staff as well. Jaquelynne is very kind and organized. It was helpful to get things to our insurance. Everyone in the office made my and my wife feel comfortable. Dr. O’Connor just completed my surgery and denture fitting. I am extremely pleased with results. I highly recommend him if you are in need of implants. I wish I had known about him before I spent a lot of money on my lower denture that has given me problems from the beginning.”

” The experience I had with Dr. O’Connor and staff was far better than I expected. I knew I needed quite a bit of dental work and was beyond scared and concerned about the process. They not only helped ease my anxiety but Dr O’Connor, Mrs. O’Connor and Jacquelynne made me feel valued and truly cared for. Going through these dental procedures was a true transformation that takes skill and time to complete many processes. My experience was great the entire time along the way. I am so happy I made the decision to meet Dr. O’Connor and would definitely recommend him to anyone needing dental care. ”

” UPDATE to previous review. It’s now been 7 months later and I got my final arches and I cried when I got home. My smile is beautiful! Tom is an amazing dentist and man in general. He and his assistant Jacqueline have been with me every step of the process. I couldn’t imagine any other dentist treating me like they did. I felt like family. If you want to completely change your life with a beautiful smile… THESE ARE THE PROFESSIONALS YOU WANT! I will never see another dentist. Nobody could ever compare to Tom and his team. Thank you for such a beautiful smile. I will forever be grateful to you all! You all have changed my life and i can’t stop smiling! 😁 ❤
I absolutely LOVE Dr. O’Connor and his staff!!! What an amazing and talented group of people. I went in to get a consultation for all on 4 arches. I signed up immediately to have the procedure done. I just finished my last surgery yesterday. I could not be more pleased with the outcome. I honestly could not be happier. Dr. O’Connor is such a talented dentist and his knowledge and expertise was spot on. His assistant Jacqueline has been amazing. And his wife is beyond sweet. I recommend him to anyone and everyone that wants a beautiful smile. Their attentiveness to my need and questions (even after hours) has exceeded any and all expectations I could of had. As soon as I met Dr. O’Connor and Jacqueline, I felt totally comfortable and at home with them. I knew these were the professionals I wanted to do my procedures. Best decision I have ever made. I cannot say enough about their professionalism and compassion for the work they do. They have surpassed EVERY expectation I had. I cannot thank them enough for giving my smile and confidence back. Nothing short of amazing… each and every one of them. I will forever be a patient of Dr. O’Connor. Give them a shot… you won’t be disappointed. I know you will love them as much as I do. ❤”

” The office of Dr O’Connor are great! They treat you with the utmost respect and caring for your dental health. I have never had such a great experience with a dentist before. I would not trade them for anything. I had several procedures done with him and seen tremendous progress. I had wisdom tooth pulled out and let me tell you that Dr O’Connor has hands of a angel! No pains, no infections and great recovery. I was dreading this procedure but he made me feel comfortable and went through it like a breeze, not to mention that I had all four of them done at the same time! I would highly recommend his office and expertise to everyone without a doubt. In addition to Dr O’Connor and Diane, Kathy our dental hygienist is fabulous, very friendly and polite you always leave with a smile. ”

“I have been a patient of Dr. O’Connor since 2007 or 2008. I visit his office every six months, and I have always had a fantastic experience.
Dr. O’Connor and the dental hygienist, Kathy, are always very thorough and take their time. I also appreciate that when you are scheduled for a procedure, you are the only patient that is being seen. I’ve been in other clinics that shuffle procedures/patients and make you wait during your procedure while the dentist works on another (or two or three) patient. Not at this office!
You can expect great service, knowledge, and preventative care from the entire staff. I love them so much that my husband and I still schedule our appointments with this office after moving two hours away. ”

” Wow amazing!! Can’t say enough, such a patient friendly atmosphere. From the first call with Dr O’Connor putting me at ease thru the entire process! No pressure at all. I had a lot of detailed questions in the beginning and the team happily answered them all. Dr O’connor is a fantastic highly skilled Dentist no doubt about it. His is assistant Jacqueline is absolutely the best and provides the highest quality care with a very warm personal side. Jacqueline knows everything about the implant procedures from beginning to end. Worth her weight in gold ! What a fantastic team, kind and personable absolutely the entire time. Yep, i’m telling you this is the place to get your dental implants. I searched well over 3 years for a top Doc and wow did I land in a great place. I’m so happy now and having not smiled for the past 25 years this was my dream come true. I keep getting stopped and complemented on my beautiful smile. And now I proudly show them off like a proud papa. The kindness and compassion shown without judgement is so beautiful. And I still can’t say enough about the top notch service. Now I can look people in the eye and smile, it’s such a wonderful feeling. This dream team is simply OUTSTANDING, your search is over. SMILE !!!”

” I went through initial tests with another dentist, but switched to Dr. O’Connor because he would provide more and a better treatment plan for thousands less. His office is smaller, but professional and personable, the other seemed all about the money. I posted a question on the website and within minutes, Dr. O’Connor himself called me back and talked for 20 minutes about my situation! I was hooked. They got me in quickly, were informative, honest, kind and attentive. Diane explained everything so well. I had permanent fixed implant surgery on March 15, 2017, and couldn’t be happier with my treatment. They handed me a mirror after and I cried and said thank you many times. I can’t even find the words to describe how much this surgery meant to me and when I looked in that mirror, I knew I had done the right thing and Dr. O’Connor and his staff were the perfect ones to do it. They are absolutely awesome and are now my new dentist for life!! If you are contemplating this surgery, do yourself a BIG favor and go to Dr. O’Connor. I trust them completely! I will never again be ashamed to talk or smile or laugh, it’s done wonders for my self-esteem already and Dr. O’Connor and his staff are TRULY happy for me. Thanks Dr.!!!! ”

” Best dental practice ever! Dr. O’Connor and his team are outstanding professionals. If you have had frustrating or disappointing experiences in the past, as was true in my case, then look no further.
He takes his work, and the care of his patients seriously. The entire team is responsive, knowledgeable, and generous with their time. Honest, flexible, and consistently does excellent work. I would give a rating of 10 stars if I could. ”Posted: 2019

” I didn’t really want to do this but my upper teeth were terrible looking with gum loss. Dr O’CONNOR is the best there is at this. 3D in office and is great with patience. If you’re thinking about having dental implants you should go with the best in St Louis area Dr Tom O’Connor 💯🎯. I just have my temporary and right now and will post a picture when I have the permanent ones in. You can’t go wrong by using this dental office.”

” My husband and I were new to St. Louis area and were in need of a dentist but we both we traumatized from dental experiences in our childhood so I did a lot of research before deciding to call Dr. O’Connor office. I read numerous reviews on how their office really made you feel at ease and that is exactly what we needed to calm our nerves.
Our first visit was a consultation to talk about everything and come up with a game plan for what our needs/wants were. Dr. O’Connor spent hours with us and we never felt rushed, he wanted to make sure we were educated and that the right expectations were set. One thing that was very important to me was getting adult braces on so that I could improve my smile before getting married and he agreed to help me get them on ASAP so that in 6 months I could have them temporarily taken off for the wedding. Our wedding day was one of the BEST days in my life, I was so happy and able to smile with confidence. He helped me feel beautiful on my wedding day and that was priceless to me. I could never them enough.
I now look forward to going to the dentist and I am taking better care of my oral health now more than ever before. Tom, Diane, and Kathy have really become like family and we are so grateful that we found them. They are an amazing team!”

“What’s not to love about Dr. O’Connor! He’s super friendly, easy to like, will not “sell” you on something you do not need, and is very, very particular about his work. I like that he gives complete instructions to both me and his dental assistant Diane (which is his wife who was formerly an Operating Room Nurse and extremely competent–they work well together!). He uses only advanced equipment, and has a high-tech office which is attractively decorated with photos of their underseas adventures. Besides routine procedures like cleaning and x-rays, I’ve had my chipped front tooth flawlessly filled, and 2 crowns which blend beautifully with my other teeth. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.“Posted: 2017

” The entire office staff is amazing! I’ve had a major procedure and many minor procedures at this office, and my results have been beyond wonderful! He has basically given me another chance at life, with a new smile, and a new sense of self worth. Having horrible ugly teeth, and hiding for 2 years is OVER! I can talk to people without embarrassment and finally take pictures with my family. I’m so Grateful for Dr. O’Conner and the entire staff

” I consulted with three separate highly recommended dentist. First off O’Conners office is far more then just a dental office. Although all charged for scans/ etc. This office took three hours at first sit down with me and discussed things these other two never mentioned. I am overwhelmed with gratitude to the entire staff for the entire process. I had to have teeth cut out of my sinus passage, bone grafts, six on top, six on bottom full implants. It was without a doubt at times devastating to my confidence and attitude. Pain was manageable, but a far longer process then one might think. (1.5yrs) I held on to faith and kept telling myself to trust the process. This was easier to do cause of the attention to detail and time the entire staff took with me through the process of correcting my smile. The end results are unimaginable at the time of my consultation. I was lucky to afford the overall costs which very, but it costs less then a new truck that is shot and trash in under five years. I will live the rest of my life with a beautiful smile, renewed confidence, and overwhelming gratitude for what they have done for me that echos throughout my life and my families. You may get my contact info from there office and call me anytime”

“A lifetime of irresponsible dentistry is what led me to Dr. Thomas O’Connor. And I am so glad it did.
Dr. O’Connor gave me his undivided attention as we discussed my entire dental history and current condition of my teeth. At 58 yoa, my teeth were in the worst condition of my life; even after spending thousands and thousands of dollars plus hours and hours of grueling dental work for root canals, bridges and crowns.
We had lengthy conversations about my situation wherein I asked lots of questions and received answers I could understand and that made sense to me. Dr. Tom explained three different scenarios that offered a solution to my dental situation.
If anyone ever told me that I could have all my upper teeth pulled, a sinus lift/graft, and my front gum line reshaped, all in one visit without being unconscious, and not feel any pain or even discomfort! I would have told them they were nuts.
I had what is called sedation surgery. When I arrived at 7am for surgery (my sis drove me) it was dark and chilly out. I was already relaxed from the pill I had taken before bed. The atmosphere was very welcoming and calming. It was just me, Dr. Tom, his wife Diane, and a technician to monitor my vitals. Diane even put a soft, plush blanket over me. I drank the sleepy juice and the next thing I remember was Diane telling me it was “Gatorade time”. That meant it was time for me to wake up and get some fluids in me.
My sister was there to pick me up. I went to her house so she could keep an eye on me and make sure I kept an ice pack on my jaw to minimize swelling. Dr. Tom and Diane called that evening to see how I was doing. When I say there was no pain, I truly mean “no pain” actually I would say there was minimal discomfort.
Even the day following surgery, Dr. Tom wanted me to come in so he could check me and also to show me how to remove my temporary denture and clean it. He told me that it may be an unpleasant experience because of the surgery being so recent. But, once again there was no pain and no discomfort. I was so relieved that it was over.
It has been about a month since surgery and my gums are still healing. Soon I will be undergoing sedation again for the 6 implants, more healing and then the grand day when I get my permanent overlay denture implant. Woo Hoo. I can’t wait.
I could not be happier with or have more confidence in Dr. Tom and Diane. I am so fortunate to have found them.”

“As I write this, I’m filled with gratitude to Dr. O’Connor and his exceptional staff. Dr. O’Connor is correcting a number of progressing dental issues that arose from my own neglect. Probably the most difficult process is finding the perfect dentist! After interviewing many dentists-I arranged for a consultation and I instantly knew this was the dentist I not only trusted- but-every detail was explained to me-every question was answered in detail…
I currently am healing from a full upper dental implant surgery. Every aspect of this procedure was explained in detail and knew what to expect throughout my treatment. I can honestly say..I had no complications, no discomfort and no pain. Care was taken by Dr. Tom’s staff to teach me how to care for my implants and show me the way…no question was to small!Dr. Tom is truly a ‘man for others’ and I will always be grateful for his care, demeanor, and knowledge.
As my journey continues I know Im in the care of the best dentist and staff – Thank you Dr. Tom!”

His staff is always welcoming and encouraging. Dr. Tom has done everything from wisdom teeth extraction to teeth whitening for us…necessary to cosmetic…they take care of it all.

“TO THE DOCTOR AND STAFF OF Dr. Thomas E. O’Connor
I AM EXCITED TO WRITE THIS REVIEW OF THIS PRACTICE.
NEVER HAVE I BEEN SO IMPRESSED WITH A DENTAL OFFICE.
DR. O’CONNOR AND HIS STAFF ARE THE NICEST AND MOST PROFESSIONAL WITHOUT A DOUBT. THEY JUST CARE ABOUT THEIR PATIENTS AND TREAT THEM LIKE FAMILY.
THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT DR. O’CONNOR IS AN EXPERIENCED, VERY GIFTED PROFESSIONAL; A DENTIST YOU CAN TRUST TO “TELL YOU LIKE IT IS” AND YOU CAN EXPECT TOP NOTCH DENTAL WORK. I WENT TO HIMRECENTLY FOR A SECOND OPINION AND AM VERY GLAD THAT I DID. HE EVEN PERSONALLY CALLED ME AT HOME TO SEE HOW I WAS DOING DURING THE SAME DAY I HAD SOME WORK DONE. (THIS IS NORMALLY DONE BY SOMEONE ELSE IN THE OFFICE) IF YOU WANT A DEDICATED PROFESSIONAL WHO CARES THEN THIS IS THE GUY.”

“I visited Dr. O’Connor’s office with a broken front tooth and some rickety old bridgework. How lucky I was to have found him. He diagnosed my problems with his state-of-the-art technology. Then he explained my situation in great detail, showing me the techniques he employed to come to his conclusions. We discussed his suggestions and settled on a plan of attack. Four dental implants later, I couldn’t be happier with the results. The office visits were cheerful and relaxing, thanks to the caring staff, and the fact that I experienced little discomfort and no pain at all made the experience easy to endure. Bravo Dr. O’Connor!

I greatly appreciate his knowledge, expertise and guidance to get my dental health back. It was a HUGE overhaul and with the help and support of Tom, Diane, Cathy and Jacqueline I was able to make it through the entire process! I really love the end results, it’s a great feeling to share a smile again. Happy and Thankful – Michael”

Patient Review 221: By Smiling Patient
“I need more stars!! There are just too many positive things to say about Doctor Tom and his crew to fit them in a comment box. Let me start at the beginning — There’s ample parking mere steps away from the front door (a boon to those of us not so steady on our feet). The waiting room is spacious and comfortable. The staff, Doctor Tom, Diane, and Kathie, are so warm and friendly that you instantly feel comfortable and secure. You know you’re in good hands. All procedures are described not only in advance but again as they occur. There is continual concern for the slightest discomfort and instant action if necessary, which wasn’t often. Their sleep drugs work like a dream! The work done on me was extensive — removal of all my existing teeth and replacement with gorgeous new uppers and lowers that look just like the originals. I couldn’t be happier. And maybe the nicest thing you can say about a dentist’s office…I’ll truly miss everyone there! Thank you all for taking such good care of me.”

“Same Day Dental Makeover!!! Friendly and professional environment. Dr.O’Connor went the extra mile to ensure quality results. Multiple extractions and implants were done the same day with aide of sedation dentistry. Walked in with a less than par smile and left with a perfect smile in one day. To have new permanent teeth without having a denture in place was nothing short of a miracle.”

“I’ve known Dr. O’Connor since I was a child.
I highly recommend Dr.O’Connor and his team for your dentistry. I had an old baby tooth that never fell out because there was no other tooth to push it out or take its place. I needed an implant tooth to fill the void left behind by the baby tooth. Dr. O’Connor told me that if I wanted an implant, that I would need to have a sinus grafting procedure to grow more bone as an anchor point. I was sedated and experienced no pain. The procedure went exactly as planned. After the bone solidified, Dr. O’Connor used a digitally guided dental implant placement. It went incredibly fast and there was absolutely no pain at all. Dr. O’Connor and his team are all so professional and made sure I was always comfortable.”Posted: 06/06/2018

He installed a tooth implant on one of my upper front teeth. I personally know of two other people who had this procedure done with disastrous results. They should have gone to Dr. O’Conner. This man clearly strives to make his patients as comfortable as possible and achieve the best possible results. I would not consider using anyone else.”

“Dr. Tom and his staff are the absolute best. My teeth were literally grinding down and chipping away. He had told me as much for about 10 years and I finally got the courage to do so in order to save my teeth. It was certainly a process, but fully explained and laid out for me. It was a painless process and the transformation was remarkable. Compliments galore from family and friends. It makes me feel like a totally new person. I could not be happier with the result, much better than I imagined. He was very flexible with my schedule to make it happen. It certainly is not a cheap procedure and the insurance coverage was minimal as explained by him, but well worth it in order to save all of my teeth. I am 62 years old and my mouth has never looked better. He never pushed me but clearly and distinctly laid out the facts and options for my decision. He has a great sense of humor and his professionalism is unsurpassed. I would most highly recommend him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
About the Hygienist: “Cathy does a simply outstanding job and is always pleasant, cheerful and thorough.”

Patient Review 213:
“I like going to the dentist. I never thought I’d write this and I’d wager you never thought you’d read it, either. I’ve seen too many dentists over the years with mixed results at best. Dr.Tom saved me from years of inconvenient living with all sorts of “stuff” that wouldn’t help me eat properly nor look presentable (maybe a miracle here?). i now look, feel and eat as if I were fifty years younger and had the best dentist in town , which I believe I do. But here’s the kicker: with sleep apnea I have a two piece device to take the place of the “machine” and since I have all my teeth (thanks implants), I can use it with ease. So, when dental needs arise, you have two choices, suffer or see Dr. Tom. I do NOT suffer.”

“Dr. Tom did a great job with very little pain. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
It was great to know all the cost before he started. And he remained in budget.”Hygienist Rating: 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars 5 stars

Patient Review 207:
“I would highly recommend Dr O’Connor. His chair-side manner is amazing. He explains all procedures completely, and has state-of the art dental equipment. I had many procedures, like bone-grafting, implants, gum realignment, and more. I now have a great smile and perfect upper teeth. I am still perfecting my lower teeth and should be done with everything this summer. I had sedation dentistry and nitrous oxide, which makes everything pain-free. His office staff is great, too.”

Patient Review 206:
“A lifetime of irresponsible dentistry is what led me to Dr. Thomas O’Connor. And I am so glad it did.
Dr. O’Connor gave me his undivided attention as we discussed my entire dental history and current condition of my teeth. At 58 yoa, my teeth were in the worst condition of my life; even after spending thousands and thousands of dollars plus hours and hours of grueling dental work for root canals, bridges and crowns.We had lengthy conversations about my situation wherein I asked lots of questions and received answers I could understand and that made sense to me. Dr. Tom explained three different scenarios that offered a solution to my dental situation.
If anyone ever told me that I could have all my upper teeth pulled, a sinus lift/graft, and my front gum line reshaped, all in one visit without being unconscious, and not feel any pain or even discomfort! I would have told them they were nuts.
I had what is called sedation surgery. When I arrived at 7am for surgery (my sis drove me) it was dark and chilly out. I was already relaxed from the pill I had taken before bed. The atmosphere was very welcoming and calming. It was just me, Dr. Tom, his wife Diane, and a technician to monitor my vitals.
About the Hygienist: Diane even put a soft, plush blanket over me. I drank the sleepy juice and the next thing I remember was Diane telling me it was “Gatorade time”. That meant it was time for me to wake up and get some fluids in me.
My sister was there to pick me up. I went to her house so she could keep an eye on me and make sure I kept an ice pack on my jaw to minimize swelling. Dr. Tom and Diane called that evening to see how I was doing. When I say there was no pain, I truly mean “no pain” actually I would say there was minimal discomfort.Even the day following surgery, Dr. Tom wanted me to come in so he could check me and also to show me how to remove my temporary denture and clean it. He told me that it may be an unpleasant experience because of the surgery being so recent. But, once again there was no pain and no discomfort. I was so relieved that it was over.
It has been about a month since surgery and my gums are still healing. Soon I will be undergoing sedation again for the 6 implants, more healing and then the grand day when I get my permanent overlay denture implant. Woo Hoo. I can’t wait.
I could not be happier with or have more confidence in Dr. Tom and Diane. I am so fortunate to have found them.”
