PATIENT REVIEWS

During my vacation in Idaho last month, my front tooth veneer chipped and had to find a place to fix it. The receptionist on the phone was very kind and squeezed me in. The staff is very friendly and the office is spacious and beautiful. The doctor Baid is very helpful and did a thorough job. The price was very reasonable and I was so happy to be able to smile again.

There seems like there is a lot going on in the photo below of my son getting cavities treated, but what you don’t see is tears. He was in that chair for 90 plus minutes and was happy to come in the following week when we had to finish the other side of his mouth. BTW – a note to all parents: it is never to early to start flossing as well as brushing. My wife and I have been using Dr. Baird’s and his team’s services for 5 years and I am sure we will be seeing him for many years to come, but hopefully we will mostly only see his hygienists! I would recommend Dr. Baird for any age individual in your family.

Great dentist!!! I went in (for the first time) to have a wisdom tooth filled and it turned out it needed to be pulled. (I saw the tooth after it was pulled) Anyway it came out so easily I was charged for a simple extraction instead of a difficult one. The dentist is so nice and he talks with you before you go in for whatever you are having done. Now this may be only on the first visit, but I have never had that happen before. I highly recommend this dentist!!!

Don’t go to Eagle River Smiles. I had 3 cavities filled there and have been in so much pain since, just miserable. They said there wasn’t anything they could do and referred me out. My cavity filling fell out!! Never in 39 years have I had a cavity filling fall out. I’m aghast! Just horrible.

5 stars all around from the friendly staff to the outcome of the treatment. Being a former dental assistant my mom has the foundation to understand treatment plans and when she had visited several other dental offices they wanted to provide a plan that was unnecessary which drove up the treatment costs. Finding Dr Baird, truly was a miracle he took the time to understand what was needed and performed it flawlessly and for that we are Sincerely grateful for his expertise, precision, going above and beyond for patient care and for taking the time to ensure Ultimate patient satisfaction. Thank You Dr Baird and your staff for an overall excellent experience.

Dr. Baird and his team are great. I chipped a molar while visiting the Boise area and needed a crown last minute. His team fit me in within a couple days, scheduled a same day crown, walked me through pricing, and helped me make an informed decision on my care before I ever walked through the front door. When I showed up for my appointment they gave me a tour of the space, put me in a private room to fill out the paperwork, and again walked me through the pricing so there were no surprises. I don’t have dental insurance so that latter mattered. I’ve had dental insurance; even with it, transparency in pricing matters. They have an house program that I signed up for because there was a cost benefit to me. Another aspect I appreciate is the level of care. Dr. Baird addressed all of my questions and laid out a plan of care I feel confident with. I had a tooth another dentist told me needed a root canal pre shutdown. The appointment for it got cancelled during lockdown. When I mentioned it to Dr. Baird, he told me it did not need a root canal. He said if it was his tooth, he wouldn’t touch it. It was a straight forward, simple statement that gave me all the information I needed. I visit Boise enough that I plan on Dr. Baird(and his team) being my full time dentist moving forward. I liked him so much, my sister is planning on seeing him when she’s in town next.

I have found Dr. Baird very interested in listening to whatever concerns you may have. He will adapt his approach to meet your needs. From concerns with water in the back of your throat to issues with needles. He is wonderful to work with and does great work. In fact, I had an out of state dentist compliment his work on some bridgework he did. I recommend him and his staff highly.

Our daughter had a dental emergency on a Tuesday night following a skateboarding incident. Dr Baird was more than willing to meet us at his office after normal office hours. We can’t thank him enough for his genuine concern and focus to detail in helping our daughter. The next day we received a call from his office to see how our daughter was doing and to make us aware of the next steps in her dental care. Thank you for being so personal, and professional!

I would highly recommend Eagle River Smiles! The office is beautiful and Dr. Baird and his staff are so friendly! They were able to accommodate our whole large family on very short notice. Dr. Baird is an excellent dentist and very gentle. He was able to take care of all the ages in our family. He saw my young children, teenagers, and my husband and I. Everyone in the whole family had a great experience, even with some of us requiring more work than others! Bring your family to Eagle River Smiles!!!!

Dr. Baird and staff are wonderful! I had an implant done and was so nervous but they made me feel comfortable and Dr. Baird was attentive and gentle. I will highly recommend this office to everyone! The office is beautiful and each room has a great view. Plus a separate play room for the kids to hangout while you get your work done too!

These people are great. My work ended up being more complex, and at 5 pm when I was told it would take longer than expected, I thought they would tell me to come back the next day. Dr. Baird and one of his assistants stayed late – well after business hours – to make sure I was taken care of. The staff was friendly, the atmosphere pleasant (well, considering you’re there to get your teeth drilled), and overall one of the best dental experiences I’ve had.

The staff was friendly from the moment I walked in the door. I was a first-time patient and the dentist went out of his way to meet with me before I even went in to get my teeth clean. The hygenist was nice and walked me through everything and showed me everything. I had a few cavities and they were able to get me right in that day… which is unusual because they are always busy. They made it a comfortable experience and I would highly recommend them to anyone. Even those with strong nerves like me when it comes to the dentist. You can tell the dentist has gone a long way making his staff as great as they are. Teamwork has a whole new meaning there.

My wife and I have been going to Eagle River Smiles since they opened and we’ve had nothing but great experiences. They’re punctual with appointments, the staff is always friendly and attentive, and Dr. Baird knows his stuff. Should you have issues beyond a routine check-up, Dr. Baird does a great job of communicating options and will make sure you’re happy with the work afterwards. Highly recommended!

Amazing! I know that is not what you would expect when talking about a dental visit, but it is true! Dr. Baird and his staff are amazing at their jobs! Not only are they friendly, personable, and professional but they are also kind and understanding. When a crown I had (done by my former dentist) popped off on a Saturday night, and I was freaked out and scared, Dr. Baird made arrangements for me to come to the office when the office wasn’t even OPEN, to fix the issue. Not only that but he truly wants what is best for you. He spent a lot of time making something that was “okay” be better than okay. He wanted me to be completely comfortable and happy with my treatment. I started going to see Dr. Baird when my parents told me how great he was. My family and I have now been going there for 10 years, even after we moved to Caldwell, we drive all the way out just because of how amazing Eagle River Smiles is! FOUR STARS! Two BIG Thumbs Up! 10 out of 10! by whatever other scale you might want to go by… EAGLE RIVER SMILES, Dr. Baird and his Staff are AMAZING!

I always feel welcomed and immediately at ease when walking through the office doors. The staff are all very welcoming and kind, and so easy to talk to. It makes that dreaded dental visit seem like no big deal! The cleanings are very thorough, and I love watching the tv on the ceiling during the procedures. Dr Baird and his staff rock!

Eagle River Smiles has offered me the best service I could imagine. Everyone in the office so kind and willing to do whatever they can to make you the most comfortable. I look forward to my appointments because of how easy the appointments are and how great the staff is. And you get to watch Netflix on the ceiling during your visit, just another perk Eagle River Smiles offers to their patients!

In my life, a trip to the Dentist is hardly ever a wonderful experience until my experience with Eagle River Smiles. Simply the best dental experience ever! Had a great checkup and out of the checkup came a reccomendation for a badly needed implant. Dr Baird and staff create an awesome experience. I will never need another dentist!

Dr. Baird is amazing and I trust him. He has never proposed treatment that was unnecessary. He cares so much that he will ask about your children! His valuable team members are not only professional, caring, and they really care. I usually hate dentist because I have TMJ. Dr. Baird is so caring, and gentle I leave without jaw pain or a migraine! I am so happy every time I go in,,,,

I came here with my daughter today because we were not sure what to do with her stubborn baby tooth while a permanent tooth managed to grow on top of the baby tooth. She was complaining of some discomfort few days ago but due to her previous dental experiences, she might have endured the tooth ache longer than I could’ve realized. She’s really scared of dentists and she was very nervous coming here today that I made a deal with her that she could play her iPad music (with her cute pink headphones on) if she agrees to see the dentist. Location was easy to find and I was really impressed how clean the place was when we visited today. Staff members were all polite, helpful and respectful. I don’t know anything about dental equipment but everything looked nice, modern, and clean. There is also a refreshment area which I thought was pretty cool (I made a nice cup of coffee during the short wait). I think the price was very reasonable considering they did clean my daughter’s teeth, and Dr. Baird was able to persuade my nervous daughter to pull that stubborn baby tooth. What a relief! I knew my daughter will most likely just tolerate/ignore the discomfort because she’s very scared of dental work but Dr. Baird was genuine and thoughtful that my daughter agreed to have the tooth pulled today. I am quite surprised that there has been no other previous review from this clinic so after our visit today, I decided to write this one review because I think everybody at the clinic truly rocked, and I appreciate how warmly they treated my daughter and I. We also scheduled a follow-up visit for her in 6 months, so I do plan to go back there and would highly recommend this place especially among parents who have little ones scared of going to the dentist.

Love, love, love Dr. Baird and his staff.  I have been in and around the dental field for 40+ years so appreciated Dr. Baird’s straight forward approach to what my mouth needed.  He gave me options and let me make the decision and didn’t pressure to one option or another.  His staff is friendly and gentle.  I would recommend him as your next dentist!

I have been going to Dr. Baird for about a year now. I have always been a little terrified of the dentist, he is by far one of my favorites. His staff always makes you feel welcome and is constantly making sure you feel okay. I can say since I have been going to this facility I have never been so at ease in a Dentist office. I would recommend them to anyone.

Dr. Baird and his staff constantly exceed my expectations. Not only do I trust that my family’s dental health is under exceptional care but the warm and friendly culture of the office is so comforting. The space is beautiful with all personal comforts accommodated. I have also been so grateful that the doctor is honest about not doing something unnecessarily just to increase revenue. Multiple times he and his staff has been generous with their time in answering questions via phone, email, and in office that put my concerns to rest and prevent me from spending money without need.

Today was my first visit to Dr. Baird’s office and I am so happy I chose Eagle River Smiles! Their office is gorgeous first off. I was greeted right away and given a tour of the office. Everyone is so friendly. Dr. Baird is totally awesome! Came up with a good plan of action and made my dentist anxiety settle down. My teeth are so clean and my hygienist was gentle with my cleaning and took note of my concerns before starting. I will be sending all the people I know here! Thank you!!!

I recently had to switch to a new dentist because I singed up for the Careington Care500 program & my original dentist did not cover it. I was blown away by Dr Baird & his staff- they are extremely kind & thoughtful & really know their stuff! It seemed like my comfort was their #1 concern. I’m really glad I made the switch.

It’s amazing how dentistry has progressed over the years and Dr Baird is on top of his game with his tools and techniques. Every person on staff is so efficient; the visit to the dentist office isn’t something to dread anymore. They all are kind and professional. They make me feel like family. Thanks for making my mouth function so well and feel so good.

I’ve known and liked Andrew Baird for many years. He’s very honest and kind. I recently decided to try out his dental skills :). I prefer to work with one family dentist, rather than use a separate pediatric dentist for my 5 kids. It helps keep my life simpler, so I took my whole family to him. I was very impressed with how he and his staff dealt with all ages. In the past the x-rays have been the most traumatic experience in the dental chair for my kids, often including tears, because the bite wings were always too big and sharp. Dr. Baird has less invasive technology that captures the needed images with no pain. It was a breeze even with my 4 yr old. I personally had to have some fillings replaced and appreciated how gentle Dr. Baird was and how much he cared that I was comfortable. He also offered an in-house family insurance plan that significantly cut our families dental costs, since we don’t have dental insurance. I highly recommend Dr. Baird to anyone of all ages!

Dr. Baird and his staff are all amazing! I have been looking for a new dentist for several years that I like, who does amazing work and has a great friendly staff. I can say my search is over! He works with me and my daughter with our crazy work and school schedules, was even willing to see my daughter on. Saturday before she had to head back to school. Quality dentist, staff and facility! If you have been looking for the perfect dentist stop searching Eagle River Smiles is your place! Thanks Dr. Baird and girls!

Dr. Baird and staff are some of the utmost professional, friendly and thorough group of individuals I have had the pleasure of growing alongside for the past nine+ years! Always eager to assist with bold personalities and beautiful smiles, they’ll make you feel right at home every time. Regardless of how busy or slow the office may be, I’m treated with respect, a handshake, introductions and explanation of the who, what’s and where! Thank you for uplifting my confidence and treating me like a valued client throughout the years. I recommend you to anyone and everyone!

I am deathly afraid of dentists in general but had to get some chipped teeth repaired and chose Eagle River Smiles. I am blown away at the level of professionalism and care from every single member of that team. Although my teeth got drilled out of my face, all four appointments have been consistently amazing. No wonder they have an overall 5 star, well deserved.

I loved it from the moment I walked in. The office is set up professionally but feels welcoming. Absolutely loved the Tvs above the Dentist chair. Dr. Baird is a stud, completely professional and very easy to relate with. He makes you feel comfortable. He has surrounded himself with a fantastic staff…thank you ladies.

Dr. Baird and his staff are amazing. They are always friendly and helpful. Lisa is a great hygienist. She is very knowledgeable and I learn something new at each visit. Dr. Baird keeps my smile looking great. He helped me resolve some defects in my teeth. He made sure I was 100% happy with everything he did. He gave me referrals for work he doesn’t do. I like their free teeth whitening for life program. It is nice to touch up the white smile. I enjoy my visit every six months.

Before choosing a dentist, I asked Dr. Baird for an interview. During that time, I met the staff, saw the office, and asked Dr. Baird some questions. I definitely made the right choice in going with this office! Some procedures that I have done were whitening and night-guard trays and fillings. Everything has gone smoothly.

Dr Baird and his whole staff have made my family feel very welcome and comfortable with every visit. They are very thorough & gentle with their work. My kids actually get excited to go to the dentist, and my husband & I look forward to getting our teeth cleaned too which says a lot! We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dentist that goes above and beyond. 🙂

So grateful I found this place. After a year of suffering with a bad crown from another local place, I decided to try a new dentist. Eagle River Smiles figured out the problem and installed a new crown in the same visit. The pain is finally gone!!! The staff is incredibly kind and friendly, the technology is out of this world cool – from 3D imaging to onsite crowns to watching a movie with headphones while they grind off the old crown, it was by far my best dental experience ever.

While I haven’t been a patient of Dr. Baird and his staff, I have had the good fortune of interacting with them through work. The staff at ERS is extremely friendly and professional, the office space is immaculate, and Dr. Baird is truly a good-hearted person who cares deeply about his community. I would feel confident recommending this business to anyone!
