About Bakios Stephen N Dr
Based on Pawtucket Avenue in East Providence, Rhode Island, Bakios Stephen N Dr is a dental practice serving the area. Wisdom teeth are removed when they are impacted, repeatedly infected, decayed, or damaging the tooth in front, since they arrive last and often into a jaw with no room left. Not every wisdom tooth needs to come out — one that erupts cleanly and can be kept clean is often left alone.
At the core of a general dental practice is preventive and restorative care: checkups, professional cleanings, fillings, and screening for decay and gum disease before either becomes a bigger problem. It is the kind of appointment most people need on a routine schedule rather than only when something hurts.
Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave.
Routine attendance, roughly every six months for most people, is what actually keeps small problems small. A lot of decay and gum disease develops without any pain in its early stages, which is why regular checkups matter even when nothing seems to be wrong, rather than only booking an appointment once something hurts.
A first appointment at a new practice typically covers a full examination, a review of your dental and medical history, and a professional cleaning, with X-rays if you do not have recent ones. It is also a reasonable time to raise any longer-term concerns, cosmetic or otherwise, so they can be factored into a plan going forward.
Day-to-day oral health still comes down to the basics between visits — brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, cleaning between the teeth, and limiting how often sugary food and drink appear through the day matters more than the total amount eaten at once. Regular professional care is what catches whatever those habits do not. This page has the practice's contact details and full service list. Get in touch through it to ask questions or book a visit.

I really wanted to take the time to say that this man is the best at. He did a good job and making me feel. going back a few years ago I had a cracked back tooth that caused me extreme pain. I called him for an emergency visit and he got me in. It was around lunchtime. I remember sitting in his chair. I seen him walk by the door a few times talking with the hygienist, whispering and laughing about their day or laughing at. From then he came in and introduced himself I then proceeded to have x-rays. I then sat in the chair and he had gotten his probe and continued to touch each tooth gently then he got to my crack tooth and what seemed to be a little bit more pressure than needed stuck the probe into the crack and said this one and of course, I said he then proceeded to pull it, which was extraordinarily painful. Needless to say you can fill in the blanks, this man is a terrible person whether it was intentional or not. I am still pissed off to the day because I feel it was I would not visit this man especially for an emergency during lunchtime. I feel I was being mocked. I always swore if I saw him on the street that I would tell him about my wonderful time and what kind of person I thought he was. So I don’t know if anybody else has had this experience and I apologize if I’m the only one and I am mistaken, but if it has happened to you, just know you’re not the only one.
Awesome if you want your lingual nerve permanently damaged
Dr.Bakios was awesome. I put off getting a wisdom tooth out for 20 years, after a bad experience at another surgeon. So glad I went here to have it done.
Enjoyed the staff, experience and expertise of Dem S. Baikios. Explanation of steps and procedures were delivered in a professional and considerate manner. I had tooth #4 replaced with a dental prosthetic crown. I highly recommend this practice for oral surgery. Will use this office in the future again if needed.
NEVER GO HERE!!!.....went to get a tooth pulled and was on time. I sat around waiting until 5 when my appointment was 2:30. He forgot I was there after giving me two Anesthesia shots. He was very rough. Heavy handed when giving the shot! I've had several work done on my mouth and he is the worse with no concern. He forgot I was sitting around for another hour and gave me 3 more anesthesia shots. He took 2 patients ahead of me and I had to complain for them to see me after waiting in the back room after the anesthesia shots and sitting around for an hour. When done.. I finally left it was 6:00!!!!!.... I was in extreme pain. My original dentist referred me. I will definitely give them feedback. They should not refer ANYONE there! I will never go there again. Very unprofessional and a totally lack and disregard for his patience. Your just a number to him. PLEASE BE AWARE !!!...
I had my wisdom teeth taken out a week ago and it went better than I expected. I had the procedure done a little older than most and was concerned about the recovery but after my follow-up today everything looks good so far. Dr. Bakios is very knowledgeable and experienced which gave me the confidence to have the procedure done. His team is also fantastic and I’m appreciative of Elaine checking on me the evening of the procedure. I’m a coward and hope to never have to undergo an experience like this again but I give this office 10/10.
I was very nervous to get my wisdom teeth out. The doctor was extremely helpful and gave me all the options to calm my nerves during the consultation. I opted for the general anesthia route. It was so easy! The IV insertion was painless and before I knew it, I was done. I would recommend this practice to anyone, especially those nervous about dental procedures. Dr. Bakios and his entire staff are great!
