PATIENT REVIEWS

In the past year, I moved to Colorado and had to take the daunting task of finding a new dentist – Yikes!  Well, I found the best dentist!!  Dr. Todd is everything you would ever want in your dentist: he knows his stuff (!!), kind, gentle and explains everything.  He and his staff are well informed and could not make a terrible situation (going to the dentist is not going to the park) a fabulous and pain-free time. Their office has movies and besides the pain killers they use, this is the very best distraction!  If you are looking for a new dentist, you will not go wrong by using this business and having Dr. Todd as your dentist.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Todd Matheson for almost eight years now. My experiences in the chair with him and his staff have been nothing but positive for all my dental needs, that I’ve referred my family and friends to his practice. The thoughtful care and professionalism exhibited by Dr. Todd makes you feel right at home. If you want a dental family to brighten your smile, you’ve found the right team at Advanced Family Dental in Lakewood, CO.

Been a patient here for maybe 6 months. Doctor Lazzarof is the man, I trust his advice and he seems to take care in his work. Also Collena is wonderful, she’s super gentle and careful and kind of a perfectionist but in a good way. Anyway I’m pretty happy, the front office treats me well and I’ll continue to come here. They have my full recommendation.

Thank goodness I found this place! I went to a dentist and had a horrible experience with them giving me some fillings. Well of course one of the poorly done fillings fell out on a Saturday and I called Advanced Family Dental and they squeezed me in without me even being a patient of theirs. The doc replaced the filling that feel out and a second filling that was hurting (also from the previous dentist). It was nice to find a good dentist after the experience I had before. It’s so scary to know crappy dental offices exist, but Advanced Family Dental is actually interested in helping its patients.

Great practice. Very professional and friendly. We have never experienced any problems with insurance and they are very thorough explaining benefits and costs. We have recently moved and luckily they have a sister office in Erie. They are taking care of transferring all our records. Highly recommend them.

I can’t say enough about how great this office is…….their staff must take nice pills they’re all so amazing. We had our first appt when they opened back up from the COVID closing and they have such a clean, secure office. We were greeted at the door where they took our temp and then we could go in usually it is one at a time but my husband and I had appts at the same time since we live together that was okay. Everything about our appts were top notch.

Lets face it….pretty much everyone hates going to the dentist, including me. I’ve been going to Advanced Family Dental for a little over a year and can honestly say they do a fantabulous job at keeping my chompers clean. Gabby has been my hygienist and she always takes her time and does a wonderful job. I get mild plaque build up on my lower bottom teeth between cleanings, but they are visibly clean and shiny when she is finished. The dental office is cozy and modern, front desk staff is always friendly and helpful. The dentists there do not up-sell at all, and even commented that a crown I had received from a prior dentist was not a treatment he would have recommended. If you’re in the market for a great dentist and top notch hygienists, (Who isn’t?!?) then this is the place for you!

I got a postcard in the mail from Advanced Family Dental, I was looking for another dentist so I decided to check it out. The important things to me and my family were 1. the care 2. the cost 3. did they try to sell us products that we did not really need. Gabby was my hygienist, she was so thorough and caring, she did not try and sell me any products. She was honest and trustworthy and I knew that I could trust her with my care. I am glad I go the postcard in the mail and made the change, it was definitely for the better!

I was at work and at 5:45pm my tooth broke I googled dentist near my home and Advanced Dental showed up, I saw they at late hours on Wednesday night and called to see if the were able to get me in. I was able to get a 7pm appointment work let me leave. Advanced dental was wonderful the staff rocks they were able to put a temporary crown on. Very clean friendly and they have screens to watch while work is being done. Highly recommended

I am new to the Denver area and was referred to AFD from a friend who has gone here for a couple years. The customer service from the hygienists, front desk staff and dentist here is top notch. I have always felt like they’ve had my best interests in mind as they’ve never come across as “salesy” and have been very clear about every appointment + procedure I’ve had (and the costs for each appointment). This office also has flexible hours (early morning + evening) so I’m able to fit my appointments in regularly. This office is 30 min away from my home, but I make the trip because it’s a dentist I know I can trust and I’ve had such a great experience here.

Let’s be honest: no one likes going to the dentist. At least I certainly don’t. No matter how much I brush and floss, there’s always a cavity hiding in there. Well fear not, because they’re really nice here and dont’ make you feel bad about your genetics. I saw Dr. Matheson (he goes by Dr. Todd), a recent transplant to the area from Alaska. He’s a well spoken, friendly, and professional dentist. He conducted a very thorough diagnoses, file review, and x-ray review and explanation. He’s a techy, so there are lots of monitors for you to look at. His dental assistant was busy cleaning another patient’s teeth, so rather than make me wait, the dentist did the cleaning himself for me. That was a first. I enjoyed my conversation and my experience so much that I scheduled 2 more visits for those pesky cavities. Dr. Todd went through his plans thoroughly and talked about his pain management approach  (i’ll have to report back in the future). I then sat down with Maria, who runs the front office and billing. She did a very complete walk-through of all expected charges and insurance coordination. Every question I had was answered, and my estimated costs clearly presented. I can’t say I’m excited about the next two appointments, but I have no apprehension and do look forward to seeing their friendly staff. So far, thumbs up.

These people are exceptional! After not seeing a dentist for at least 16 years, I was pretty nervous to go back (trying to become a more responsible adult finally…) and they have made so easy! Scheduling is always convenient and easy and everyone who works there is so great. They really make you feel comfortable right away. I’ve had quite a few issues with my insurance but the ladies up front have taken care of everything when it comes to dealing with my insurance company. I am not sure about other dentist costs (like I said…it’s been a while) but they are worth every single penny. Going to Advanced Family Dental was the best decision I’ve made when it comes to my health and well being in a long time!

I have only been to Advanced Dental a couple of times but I really like it. All the people are very friendly and work hard to provide an enjoyable experience for a not always fun time. All the people from the receptionist to the billing admin to the technicians and the dentist are top notch. I would recommend them to anyone.

I’ve always been so scared of the dentist due to a bad experience, so I went 8 years with out going to the dentist, but I found this place and it is the most comfortable spot. I have quite a bit of work that needs to be done due to my lack of visits in the past, and for the first time I’m not scared to death to walk in! Great enivorment I tell everyone to go here!

The office staff is always so nice and friendly here. Every time I’ve gone in they always greet me and make sure I’m checked in right away. The hygienists and assistants are very skilled and gentle, making sure I’m comfortable and relaxed. Dr. Todd is awesome and a perfectionist! I had a horrible experience at another dentist and hadn’t been seen for a few years, he made me feel at ease and not afraid to come back

This has been the cleanest and most comfortable dentist’s office I’ve been to in a long time. The staff are super friendly and positive, and really went the extra mile; from helping me figure out my insurance the first time, to giving me pointers on tooth care, to never making me waste away in the lobby. A great team all around

From the moment you walk in the door until the time you leave the office, you are made to feel welcome. The dentist and team seek to ensure that their patients feel heard, respected, and receive excellent care. They are skilled at allaying anxiety and putting their patients at ease. Having received care from both dentists at this practice, I highly recommend both of them.

Dr. Mathison is a great dentist.  We have been seen by him for over a year now, and we can’t say enough good about his professional treatment.  my 10 year old was absolutely terrified of having his teeth worked on because of a previous dentist. Dr . Mathison made his visit so pleasant that he is no longer afraid to go. My 21 year old daughter absolutely loves how gentle he is with her. If you’re looking for a great dentist that cares about you and will take care of you then Dr. Mathison is your guy.

Dr. Todd took care of some fillings for me and I was so happy with my experience. I had never had a cavity before and was very nervous. Dr. Todd explained everything he was doing and was so friendly and professional. I didn’t have any pain during or after. I was able to watch some shows on Netflix while he did my fillings, which was a nice distraction and helped to pass the time.  The staff is friendly and helpful, and the office is beautiful and modern. Highly recommended!

Today I went to get a cleaning at Lakewood’s Advanced Family Dental. They are new to me and already are proving to be the best dentist office I’ve been to in years. So much more professional and friendly than some chains I’ve experienced in the past. They are knowledgeable, kind and patient. I am already so happy I made the switch to Dr. Todd Matheson and his fine crew. If anyone is not a fan of the dentist and needs some reassurance than this is the place to go. They make you feel very comfortable and answer any questions or concerns you may have. And the best part is they work with you weather you have insurance or not. Thanks to all the new people I have met there so far. And a big shout out to Gabby! She is an awesome dental hygienist!

I’ve gone a few times, I had a lot of dental work done (fillings and a crown on all 4 quadrants) over a year ago here since I had not been to the dentist regularly for a couple years and it apparently showed. But everyone was really great! I have not had any issues since then. I’ve also been there for 2 cleanings since COVID hit and their system with makes me feel safe and not at any increased risk given that it is a dental practice. They have done a really good job adapting to decrease exposure for everyone. I highly recommend them!

Highly recommend! In the past, going to the dentist always meant: (1) pain, especially unexplained, (2) long waits and inflexible operating hours, and (3) expensive or the feeling of constant hard sales. However, after my visit to Advanced, I think I’ll actually actively set up follow ups as directed! I think the Advanced culture is to make the patient feel as comfortable as possible. Unlike other offices, where the first thing they do is start poking around in your mouth without any explanation, I was interviewed, if you will. I was asked questions like, “what’s most important to you about your teeth,” “how do you like to receive information,” “have you ever had any bad experiences in the chair?” Then after that, the dentist came in, there was a very nice hand off and he spent a lot of time looking at my teeth, talking about the health of them and didn’t just appear and disappear as quickly as he could. My dental hygienist, while cleaning my teeth would explain what she was doing and she even went over best practices to keep my teeth clean and healthy. She also seemed very cognizant of how expensive visits to the dentist are and really differentiated what services are preventative and what isn’t. On top of all that, this is the nicest facility that I’ve ever been to. There’s a tv mounted to the ceiling so the patient can Netflix while in the chair, of course with personal headphones. They even provide tinted goggles to protect your eyes from the light and any splatters.

This is by far the best dentist office that I have ever been to. They are very professional and extremely clean. Always willing to go that extra mile to help you with your insurance or questions you may have about your procedure or anything else. I definitely would recommend going here and taking your family and friends. Keep up the awesome job everyone. Thanks, Sean D.

Dr. Matheson is the complete opposite of what you think about when you hear the word dentist. He has exceeded our expectations. My husband hates dentist and without me having to force him to schedule an appointment for a cleaning, he did it himself because he feels comfortable with him. Then he was a complete miracle when it came to my son. He was so patient and caring when my son had a bit of an emergency. Dr. Matheson isn’t a normal “dentist”. He is DENTAL NINJA!

So I didn’t go to the dentist for 15 years. I had a mean POS of a dentist growing up. My teeth fell apart. I’m 30. I realized I have to do something NOW. Dr. Todd didn’t guilt trip me for my past. He gave me a road map forward. I just finished my last of 4 treatments. It was painless. It was priced fairly. Dr. Todd doesn’t settle with the bear minimum. He makes sure it is fixed. He looks towards the patients’ best interest.

I have been coming to this dental office for several years. I originally chose it due to its location. I have since switched my children also to this practice. I cannot say enough good things about how kind the dentists, hygienists, assistants, and office staff all are. I also love the flexibility of the hours they have. I usually have Dr Matheson but recently have had Dr Lazaroff and both are super kind and take the time to explain things and are gentle during procedures

I have been going to Advanced Family Dental for about four years now and was in need of some extensive dental work. There is no one I would trust more than Dr Todd. I received the best care before during and after, I even received a call from Dr Todd later that evening to make sure that I had everything needed to continue my recovery. From check ups to cleanings and other needed procedures I have always trusted that I have and would receive great care.

Had a very good experience with doctor peter. And Colleen made me feel very comfortable. Decided to make him my new dentist. Not only did colleen make me feel comfortable she also helped me to make my next appointment. Will highly recommended doctor Peters and colleen to all my family and friends. Two thumbs up to doctor Peters and colleen

These people are wonderful! From the office staff to the dental hygienists and Dr. Todd Matheson…very kind, caring and professional. Everything is clearly explained, they are patient with anxious patients as myself, ha! Dr. Todd is meticulous and takes pride in getting everything just right. He will do all possible to save a tooth before performing more complicated procedures. I highly recommend Advanced Family Dental!

Actually this is Scott Wright. My experience was excellent. You got me in the same day I called, gave me options for treatment and fixed the problem quickly. Although my insurance didn’t cover the procedure, the cost was very reasonable. The tech and Dr Todd explaned every detail, took x rays and even explained why he was using the type of cement he was using. Also, everyone is very friendly. You can tell they get along and help each other, including the dentists.

I have been going to this practice for almost six years and they are wonderful! The front desk staff are professional and helpful and Gabby, Michelle, Dr. Maxwell and Dr. Todd are awesome! They have helped me with my incessant clenching and bite issues. They keep my teeth looking sparkly and all the while make me comfortable and relaxed. I highly recommend them!

Dr.Todd is the man!! This is only the dentist office I have felt comfortable at in my entire life. He and the girls do an amazing job and are all super friendly! Will never switch to another dentist……ever. I have had extensive work done over the past 3 years and all of it has been above par. If you’re scared of the dentist, like I was, fret no more. Dr.Todd is your guy
