Practice Profile Page

In the past my experience hasn’t always been great. This office has made some changes and it def shows! I finally feel like I’m progressing to have the smile I always wanted. Thank you to the staff and manager for making the moment right and going above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience! Thank you to actively listening to my concerns and putting together a plan that fits me and is cost effective. I would highly recommend!

After I stopped going to my pediatric dentist, I had some a not-so-great experience with another dentist in town. After that, I was left scared of going to the dentist for awhile. Finally, I knew it was time to go back, so I started going to Dr. Ryan at DentalWorks at the recommendation of Toree P. Now, I go to the dentist every sixth months with no hesitations! The staff is friendly at DentalWorks. From the front desk staff, to the dental hygienists, to Dr. Ryan, I have been consistently pleased. I schedule appointments with ease, and the appointments themselves are a breeze. I have a couple cavities re-filled when I first started going here, and they were able to do them the same day as my cleaning (upon the discovery of needing them). They also will do whitening trays for at home for you, and as long as you go back, you can get new gel. That’s a little fun bonus. The location is conveniently in the Highlands, and there is a parking lot behind the building (which is where you enter). I definitely recommend DentalWorks and Dr. Ryan. I just wish I had started going sooner!

WE LOVE DR RYAN and all of the staff!! From the kindness of the front staff to the professional dental technicians and hygienists-everyone is wonderful! They do a great job and always make sure I am comfortable with the treatment plan! We have been going there for 30 years and would not trust my dental care to anyone else! Alicia and Scott sophie Matt zach jones!

I’ve been a patient with Dental Works (Dr. Ryan) for 22 years. The care and concern shown by the staff is exceptional. I have anxiety issues with dental visits dating back to childhood, but Dr. Ryan and the staff at Dental Works always allay my fears and help me to have a calm, pain-free experience.

Nothing but great things to say about Dental Works! Im from out of town and had a problem, they got me in that same day. All the staff was genuine and helpful. I felt very comfortable and everyone was friendly. The facility was clean. The dentist and hygienist were both very educational about dos and donts after they helped me. Would highly recommend!

I’ve been a patient here for over 10 years. Courtney is AMAZING. Alecia, I may be spelling that wrong, she is the financial advisor and is also amazing. We recently met Dr. Wofford and she was so polite, caring and had the best attitude. I highly recommend this practice for all your dental needs.

My first visit with Dental Works. Havent been to the dentist in years from bad experiences with other dentists. From checking in to everything else, everyone was nice. Didn’t judge me at all. Explained everything to me. No pressure. The woman who did my exrays and my impressions of mouth was super nice and caring. I wish I had found this place years ago. Thanks

I agonized for years before deciding to give up my teeth and get dentures. I went to Dental Works (Dr. Ryan) terrified and sad. Everyone involved – from the front desk to the back room – did everything possible to make this experience as easy for me as it could possibly have been. They also made my dentures look like my real teeth and I have almost re-learned eating and smiling and looking like my old self. I will be forever grateful to everyone involved for their kindness.

If you are looking for a friendly staff and great dental place to do your teeth at, this is the dentistry you are lookinn for. For two years I’ve been visiting regulary and never left their clinic with a sad face. Their charges are not bad too and they can negotiate the expenses. Dental Works is a highly recommended dentistry.

As someone who was traumatized as a child on a dental visit, there came a time (as an adult) years ago when I realized I needed to keep my teeth healthy. Over time, I went thru several dentists who “catered to cowards’ as they often advertised, which made me feel comfortable about going with them. In each instance, they started out fine, then the quality of services began to decrease bit by bit, forcing me to find yet another dentist. I finally discovered. DentalWorks a few years ago, and this recent visit – like the others – come close to doing what I want from a dental office when it comes to efficiency and care. So that’s the preface. The visit was less complicated I’m glad to say. This was just a basic semi-annual checkup appointment, but the one thing I like about this DentalWorks office is that they send out reminders up to a month in advance, and then weekly and up to a day or two ahead – both thru my email and text messaging. I’m given an opportunity to confirm the appointment, or call to make adjustments if necessary. On this occasion, my dental hygienist called to double-check because the computer had me down for two appointments within a few days of one another. She wanted to double-check as they’d found the glitch in a couple of other appointments, so “crisis” averted. Upon arriving at the facility, I was promptly greeted by reception, and since I’m a repeat client who had no change in address, etc., they just asked me to take a seat. My appointment was at noon, and my hygienist was with me shortly afterward, which is NOT unusual for them. I know that with doctors’ offices, we have that mindset of “hurry up and wait.” I’ve always been fortunate with DentalWorks that rarely (at least with my case) have they run more than 10 or 15 minutes behind if they were backed up, so I’ll give them that in their favor as well. I believe Kristin has been my hygienist since I started using DentalWorks, and she knows what issues I have and the best way for me to continue to care for my teeth. She is quite personable, and we always have our six-month catchup about one another’s lives since my checkups are pretty much the ONLY time I’m there. She is good all around about her work, whether it’s in the general maintenance such as cleaning, or in carefully checking to see for what services I’m due. Case in point: although I was due to have my annual X-rays, due to the timing of when they were performed in 2017 and the date of my appointment, there was a few days difference. She was concerned that due to this, my insurance might deny the X-ray claim. To be on the safe side, we’ll wait until May 2019. But this is the type of attention I appreciate. The cleaning, polishing, etc. was excellent as always. My dentist did the final follow up and I have a clean bill of health. My first appointment for 2019 was set up; I received my little daily goodies, and was ready to go! A basic day without the need for drills, etc. Dental appointments should all be that simple. I’ve had more complicated appointments in my time with them – this past May I had to have fillings replaced, but again, it was a good experience. Having a good medical staff is important, especially when it comes to a dentist, as they realize what many of us, as children, might have undergone back in the “good old days” of dentistry. Thanks to offices like DentalWorks, they have helped to alleviate some of the stress in going to the dentist. I can’t give them enough of my appreciation.

Everything about my experience at Dental Works was great. Incredibly friendly very “Down to Earth” staff that immediately put me at ease. It had been several years since my last visit to a dentist. I needed three fillings & two teeth pulled. That seemed like a lot for one day. They had no problem accommodating me. They worked with me & my schedule and they did not mind staying late to complete the job. They did not rush & made sure I was completely comfortable. I dreaded going to the dentist as I remembered it being a painful & time consuming experience. Not so at Dental Works. I highly, highly, recommend them.
