Practice Profile Page

I came across Dr. Gilbert’s business card at Marymoor dog park of all places. When it comes to dentists they all look the same (Sorry Dr. Gilbert) but I must say that Chance (Beautiful most friendly golden retriever) was the one who sold me posed on the card next to Dr. Gilbert… as well as the statement on the top of the card “Anxiety-Free Family Dentistry”. Going in I was still nervous but felt a little more at ease because strangely I did feel like family member already and I hadn’t had any work done yet. Dr. Gilbert’s office was a clean and welcoming environment. From the front desk administrator to the dental tech’s to Dr. Gilbert I felt like I was in good hands. The x-rays were a shocker because I DIDN’T end up with cuts and slashes in my mouth from the plastic pieces that need to fit in there, it was a very easy process. The exam seemed to go smooth and I felt at ease and the cleaning was just as pleasant. I do need to have some work done and that is coming up here in a few weeks but I’m not as terrified as I was before. I am looking forward to seeing the friendly staff again and having my dental needs taking care of. If you have any dental anxiety like I do I would highly recommend this place, and if you are a dog lover even more! Thanks Dr. Gilbert and team!

I and my family have been Dr. Gilbert patients for 20+ years, and every single appointment we had was an exceptional experience. Doctor Gilbert skills, expertise and patience makes you feel relaxed and confident that you are in good hands. The preventive treatments he prescribed and regular check-up have helped us keep a healthy mouth. I had very complex implant procedures done under his care and with his recommendations to experts in the area, as well as crowns and bridges done in Dr Gilbert’s office and all continue to feel good and function great after all these years. The entire office staff is always welcoming, gentle, professional and accommodating. And let me not forget the service dogs, Chase before and Chance currently, hard working at making you relax and smile. I am very grateful to Dr Gilbert for his work in keeping us healthy, thank you! I highly recommend Dr Gilbert and his staff.

My wife and I have been going to Dr. Gilbert as long as he has been performing dentistry in the Over lake area.  We are very pleased with the staff and the service they provide.  The have the latest equipment and provide excellent care.  If for some reason something comes up, they are very accommodating in making adjustments to our appointments.

A friend recommended Dr. Gilbert when I was new to the area. Dr. Gilbert and his clinical staff are accomplished in their fields of expertise, gentle and friendly. For those with a dental phobia, Chance, a registered Pet Partner golden retriever, will help calm those fears. The office is conveniently located with easy parking. It is nicely decorated, clean and organized – always on time! Dr. Gilbert was recommended to me and I do not hesitate to recommend him to you.

Dr Gilbert was recommended by my Physician about 10 years ago and I was happy with him and his practice from day one. I even left for 5 years and as soon as I came back I signed up with Dr Gilbert again. He has a soft touch as does his staff and he is the most thorough dentist I’ve ever had. I feel confident when I leave Dr Gilbert’s office that I have had top notch care with everything that could be seen to, taken care of.

Not many people can say they love going to the dentist, but Dr. Gilbert’s office makes you reconsider this idea. From the moment you walk in, you are greeted by an array of friendly and helpful people. They are very good with sending out reminders of appointments beforehand and running on schedule, meaning you rarely have to wait when you get there. Whether you have anxiety about the dentist or not, Chance (the therapy dog) is a reassuring and lovable presence. Dr. Gilbert seems very knowledgeable and always makes sure you know what he is doing in your mouth before he does it.

Before going to see Dr. Gilbert, I didn’t know a visit to the dentist could be anxiety-free. I was referred by a friend and it’s been the best referral of any type. Dr. Gilbert’s staff is competent and consistently warm and welcoming! They are always patient with me, answering my questions. (I’m one of those people, asking why this and what’s that.) Dr. Gilbert himself is so knowledgeable, it’s obvious he truly cares about what he does. And of course, Chance the Golden Retriever is a sweet addition to the office and a wonderful way to relax if you are feeling any tension. In one of my first visits to his office, he evaluated a problem crown that I’d had for several years, which was installed by another dentist. He explained what he would have done differently and why, and how he planned to fix it. The procedure itself was remarkably low-impact with Dr. Gilbert. I was actually dreading the entire procedure because of my experience with the previous dentist. The “temporary crown” from the other dentist was stainless steel, though it felt like aluminum foil. It wasn’t properly adhered to my tooth so it popped off within a day or two. It was flimsy and maintained no structural integrity, leaving my nerve exposed and me in excruciating pain if the area ever made contact with hot, cold, pressure, or just air sucked in too quickly. This continued the entire time until the final crown was placed. At my appointment with Dr. GIlbert to replace the crown, he ensured I was adequately numb before beginning and kept checking with me throughout. The temporary crown was fantastic–I could have sworn it was the permanent. The time between appointments was short and each part of the appointment went smoothly. My crown is now better than the previous version and going strong for several years. I have had the same top-notch experience every time I’ve gone to Dr. GIlbert, whether for a crown or a routine cleaning. He also referred me to an amazing endodontist who I’ve had the (mis?)fortune of visiting twice for root canals. (Which were also entirely painless, minus the initial shots of anesthetic. They are, after all, removing the nerves, so you don’t even have real soreness afterward!) TL;DR–Dr. Gilbert and his staff are PHENOMENAL at their jobs and I think you’d be hard-pressed to find anyone better.

I have been a patient for 23 years. Never a bad experience with Dr. Gilbert. I have had caps, porcelain, fillings…… and he basically maintains my teeth. I would totally recommend his office. His staff is great and they really do care about you. Before I found him, I had three dentists that provided very poor quality work.

I’ve been a patient for the last 15 years or so and Dr. Gilbert is the best dentist I’ve seen in 50+ years! He makes sure everyone in his practice is similarly skilled and welcoming. I have every confidence in his advice and treatment, and he always backs up his recommendations with research and with second opinions as required. He enjoys his profession, is proud of his work and ensures you are happy with your planned treatment and with the outcome.
