PATIENT REVIEWS

I started going to 32 Pearls after I got a discount in the mail for my first visit. I felt right at home when I arrived the first time, was welcomed and quickly taken to get my X-rays and exam and cleaning. I’ve been back 3 times since and don’t have plans to switch. They’re always efficient, friendly, and honest. Previously, I had a dentist tell me I needed multiple crowns and fillings, and Dr. Bilikas told me I needed none of that. He said they prefer to keep your teeth natural, so they don’t default to costly procedures, which I appreciate. I recommend this dentist office and will be back in a few months for my next appointment! Other Pluses: – Free parking on site – Fast wait times (I’ve never waited over 2 minutes to see someone).

I have been going here for over a year and they are the best. I have always been uneasy at dental appointments. Their staff has always made me feel at ease and comfortable. I can officially say I am no longer scared to go to the dentist. I also love that they are able to accommodate my work schedule with the option of Saturday appointments. I just had a crown put in and it was the quickest painless thing . They are truly a gem. Dr. Bilikas is amazing. I highly recommend this practice.

Linda, June, Dr. Bilikas and the rest of the team provide dental care and support in a friendly, highly professional manner, are easy to work with, and consistently achieve gracefulness under challenging conditions and in working with a huge variety of demanding, impatient, or simply uninterested patients. They always explain medical or administrative steps and why they happen, give you a chance to ask questions and become informed, and make sure you’re comfortable when you make a decision. Unlike I’ve seen elsewhere, they don’t try to cajole you into taking care of your teeth or treat you like a subhuman if they don’t look great, but show you what works and what you can do. Also, free parking right outside.

I love this office. They are open on Saturdays and that really works for me and my odd office hours that I keep. Also they are friendly from the first contact on the phone to the check in desk to the dental tech/hygenist and of course Dr. B!! I have some anxiety about the dentist that has prevented me going to one for many years and I feel so relaxed in this office that the last few times I haven’t needed gas, etc. This speaks volumes to those that can relate to fear of dentists. I have had root canals, deep cleaning, crown fitting, etc. and was always pleased with the thorough care I have received. I am so glad to have found this office and look forward to going to the dentist now.

I absolutely LOVE 32 pearls in Tacoma! The office is so comfortable, clean and inviting. All of the staff are so nice and genuinely care about you. Stephanie is a wonderful secretary, Yuliya is my fav hygienist….she is super sweet and gentle, and careful with literally everything she does….and Dr. Mike Bilikas is a pure genius/miracle worker. Its like my cavities and chipped teeth never happened! I used to be terrified of dentists….not anymore! Now i can’t wait to go! Thank you guys for giving me my smile back!

I just went to my new dentist today and loved it! They have a very cheerful and caring staff and Dr. Bilikas was great in explaining different situations going on in my mouth, along with some added services they offer. They have a heated message chair that was wonderful! I would recomend them highly!

I started going to 32 pearls last year after my other dentist retired. I’m very happy with the staff and the dentist. Everyone is very friendly and the oral care I have received has been very thorough. They replaced some old cavities and it took a couple of appointments to get my bite correct but they got me right in and fixed the problem. I ALSO LOVE THE NEW OFFICE!

Awesome staff at 32 Pearls! I found them when my dental benefits were canceled, and they had a fabulous program for persons without insurance. A truly caring facility where your dental needs come first!

Dr. Bilikas is a great dentist and a good friend. It sometimes feels hard to find a good dentist you can trust, well I’ve got a guy that I can go back to over and over again, even though I live in Los Angeles and will be in China for a few years, I will still come back to 32 Pearls. Thanks for making my day! Jones and Annie Talmadge.

I still come all the way from Kent, WA to the new office now in University Place, because it is hard to find a dentist’s office this good with fair pricing and comfortable surroundings. Dr. Bilikas has done a great job with my crowns, etc. and everyone there is dedicated and friendly, make cleanings and dental work. pleasant and effective.

I have relied on 32 Pearls for my dental care for about 20 years, since before Dr. Mike Bilikas joined the practice. I love the quality of care, orderliness, friendliness and gentle skill of the staff there. 32 Pearls helped me with significant challenges over the years. They are effective coaches, advocates and partners to keep improving my oral health behavior and status. The shop is tiny, like a small, perfect jewel. The massage option in the chair relaxes me. Bit of a spa treatment for my gums, too. Yeah, it’s THAT good.

Dr. Bilikas personally answered the phone this morning at 7:30 am when I had broken a tooth and needed an emergency appointment. It was the tenth call I made to a dental clinic and the first human I was able to speak with. I told him I was headed out of town at 1:00 in the afternoon and he told me that they could see me at 8:00 am. Perfect! I showed up at 8:05 and after filling out paperwork, was escorted right to a chair where Dr. Bilikas checked out the damaged molar. He explained that a cavity was taking up my biting surface and his amazing dental assistant, Miriam, showed me pictures of it. They explained that they would need to take an x-ray but because I’m pregnant, they only took one and made sure I was well protected. Dr. Bilikas and every member of his staff were kind, professional, competent and inviting. I felt immediately comfortable there and was made to feel like they genuinely care about my experience. Dr. Bilikas made sure to double and triple check that I was numb enough and wasn’t experiencing any pain. He and his staff explained what they were doing every step of the way. Best of all- two hours after making that frantic phone call, I was all fixed up an on my way. I’m now a long term patient! Five stars.

I go to the Tacoma office which is a newly remodeled building. The office space is beautiful. The receptionists are pleasant and helpful. I love my hygienist; so professional and friendly. And Dr Bilikas is great. Definitely a great dental office all around.

Thank you 32 pearls. I had a wisdom tooth recently start to swell and ache. Dr Bilikas got me in for an exam immediately and then scheduled for my tooth to be extracted 2days later. The procedure with one of the Dentists there was quick, easy and almost no discomfort I’m so glad they are here for our family.

I appreciate the Team at 32 Pearls. Simaron is just the absolute BEST! She took such good care of me. Very personable and kind. I truly appreciated that. Dr. Bilikas patiently explained what was going on and let me ask whatever questions I needed to ask. He gave me a clear and complete understanding of my options. Awesome! The Team let’s you know that they are there to help You. It took the anxiety I was feeling completely away. Thank You.

Do you remember way back in the day when you had that friendly dentist in the little office, everyone in the staff remembered your name, pet/kid’s name, and the dentist actually helped you? Those places still exist. You’ll find all that and more here. They have everything on site. I came 3 yrs ago from a recommendation, and have since recommended to lots of folks who also had excellent things to say. I have horrible teeth (thanks Dad!) and they’ve turned my teeth around. Scheduling is easy – but the popular times (like evenings or first thing in the mornings) fill up quickly.

My husband and I have been going to see Dr. Bylikas for 1-1/2 yrs and we couldn’t have found a better place to care for our teeth. From the location to his cute office to the kind efficient and courteous staff and the doctor’s professional successful practice. We can honestly say we look forward to our visits to the dentist.

Excellent and knowledgeable staff. I just had my teeth cleaned with Marlene and it was so thorough as well as informative. Dr. Bilikas always takes care of my concerns. I have had a lot of dental work done and I would Highly recommend 32 Pearls. Best dental office ever!

Wow. What an experience!! I don’t think I’ve felt more appreciated while getting my teeth cleaned. This was definitely the greatest dentistry experience I have had in 19 years and I’m only 19!! Thank you.

Had a great experience! The office is clean and nicely decorated and only 2 minutes from my house. Marlene did my cleaning and she was a lot of fun! You won’t be bored if she works on you. Plus they were able to take care of some staining on my teeth! I have my confidence back! Thanks guys!

I’ve been going to 32Pearls for over 5 years now. I brought my elderly mother about 6 years ago. The staff are very caring and professional. They were so careful with my elderly mother who had Alzheimer’s disease. My husband now goes to 32Pearls as does my daughter and son in law. Dr. Bilikas is the best. I definitely recommend 32Pearls.

My hygienist spent a lot of time with me and explained things very well. Dr. Bilikas also spent a good amount of time & showed knowledge & concern for me. After trying two previous dentists in Tacoma , I’m very confident in this office!

This is in reference to the Tacoma location. I have always had awful anxiety and often panic attacks around going to the dentist. The first time I visited 32 Pearls several years ago, my anxiety was so high I was literally in tears.The whole staff was patient and kind and helped me thru the fear. I had so many cavities and deep gum pockets from avoiding dental care for 10 years, I had much work ahead. Stephanie has always been easy to work with on setting up a payment schedule and navigating my insurance. I call Marlene the tooth whisperer, she always makes me feel at ease during my visits. They know I’m comfortable with her and they take that extra step and schedule all of my cleanings with her. I have never sat in the waiting room past my actual appointment time, most times I am taken back before I even have a chance to sit. Today when I walk in for appointments, I have no tears and take care of my teeth regularly. I can not say enough good things about them, I recommend them to everyone. They just moved into a new space and it’s lovely. Make an appointment, you will not be sorry.

My wife and I started coming here about a year ago. Top notch experience everytime we go. Mike, hands down, has given us the best dental experience we have ever had. He is very welcoming. Feel like I’ve known him for years.

I’ve been going to 32 Pearls since 2014 and have loved every visit (even the one for a filling). Everyone on staff from Wayne at the front desk, to Linda my hygienist and Dr. Bilikas is kind, friendly, and professional. They make a point to get to know you as both a patient and a person. I always look forward to the great experience I’ll have at 32 Pearls!

I’ve been with 32 Pearls from the get-go, as Dr. B. bought my previous dentist’s practice upon his retirement. I’ve always had highly positive visits. They do not try to sell me procedures or products; they simply want patients to experience exceptional service and outcomes. Dominica, a total gem, has been my hygienist for the past few years and introduced me to a great floss (Coco Floss) for my specialized needs, which has resulted in better gums and has reduced tartar. I always look forward to my visits, which, I know, says a lot about a dental office.

I have been coming to 32 Pearls for about 6 years now and have always been treated great. Staff are always welcoming, honest, and are fun to talk to. They have always been willing to work with me during hard times. Never had a bad experience and I’m not just saying that. I lost one front tooth and broke the other. They did such an amazing job putting in a bridge. It was the first time in my life i was confident in my smile. I would definently recommend them and already have to a few friends and coworkers.

32Pearls is hands down the best dental practice experience I have ever had. Not only are they taking the utmost safety precautions during this pandemic by checking your temperature upon entering their facility, but the entire office is extremely clean and I instantly felt so comfortable. Especially caring for my elderly mother in this pandemic I take cleanliness and sanitation very seriously. I don’t even know where to begin with the staff! From the front desk to each and every dentist hygienist employee- I felt so at ease; as dentist visits aren’t typically the most fun and relaxing experience. I felt so at home! Marlene is so funny and down to earth… I felt like we were friends by the end of my visit! Dr.B is beyond amazing in his professionalism and by ensuring my entire experience was like no other. I can’t say enough about this practice!

Thanks so much Dr. B. You have always gone the extra mile to help out Anne-Marie and I. Now we can be confident in our move to China that our teeth are starting out healthy and clean. Great doctor, great friend! Jones Welsh.

I have been with 32 Pearls for quite some time and am very comfortable there. I’ve had bridgework, wisdom teeth removed, fillings and, cleanings. I love the atmosphere in the office; I could not ask for better staff. I have recommended my sister and my niece to the 32 Pearls University Place office because I am so confident in the services I have continually received.

I had my first appointment today and this office is GREAT! Everyone on staff is very nice, they offer late hours once a week, and the office is spotless. They did a great job with my cleaning and gave me a plan of care that met my needs and maximized my insurance coverage. I am so happy that I found them and I will be recommending 32 Pearls to everyone I know.
