PATIENT REVIEWS

Check out what some of our happy patients are saying about us:

Nikki D. from Tampa, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I have been going to Dr. Angela for around 40 years. From the very first appointment she explained procedures and was careful about my comfort. Hers and her staff’s work is excellent and I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. I was there today for a cleaning and check up and all Covid safety protocols are being met insuring a safe visit. A shout out to Joey who did a great job with my cleaning! Nikki D.

I am terrified of going to the dentist, did not have dentist in Tampa after moving, had a filling come off, and decided to come here based on the Google Reviews. This is hands down the best dentist experience I have ever had in my life. I was so apprehensive going into my appointment and the staff was so professional and caring through my whole appointment. Joey cleaned my teeth and checked in on me throughout the whole cleaning and when I had my fillings taken care of Dr. A and Ashley did the same. After getting everything taken care of I was not feeling great and Ashley was so attentive and made sure I was comfortable and felt better before leaving the office, later that day, to my surprise they called me to check in on me to make sure I was feeling better. I cannot recommend this office enough, especially if you have a hard time going to the dentist, they are the most professional and caring people, highly recommend!!

Doctor A lived up to her motto of Gentle Dentistry. I felt good after getting some fillings with no pain. Her assistant walked me through what to expect throughout the procedure. The office staff are extremely friendly, professional and kind. I highly recommend this practice especially if you have a fear of dentistry.

★★★★★

I had spacing in my teeth and an open bite. After Dr. shopping for several months and many consultations, I was told I would need around $18k worth of work. And then I found Gentle Dentistry! Dr. A was the ONLY dentist that gave me an option that no one else had. Instead of pricey Veneers she suggested confidently that Invisalign would work to achieve my desired look. I think I might have teared up on her! Over my treatment the entire staff from Ashley to Marissa & all the amazing ladies have grown to be like extend family. I as so blessed to find them and would send my mom here! I was able to pay monthly so no high interest Care Credit was needed!!

★★★★★

First time ever visiting this dentist office, I can honestly say just from my FIRST visit I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND visiting this dentist office to anyone the minute you walk in and speak with the receptionist you feel soo welcomed, everyone that I had an encounter with for my first day made me feel soo welcomed and understood. I’m impressed everyone was soo NICE nd POLITE! Dr. A and my hygienist (I forgot her name soo sorry:) are the best! DR. A was the first dentist ever to actually understand my wants when it came to what it was that I wanted and If I could rate Gentle Dentistry ten stars I definitely would! Thanks Gentle Dentistry!

★★★★★

Most people don’t like going to the dentist, but since I found Dr. Angela Rasmussen’s practice several years ago, I am really happy with the care I’ve received there. Gentle Dentistry not only lives up to its name, but the staff is also so personable, professional and caring.  The quality of work is first-rate and Dr. A is consistently ranked as one of the top Doctors in the area. With the Covid-19 restrictions in place, they take extra precautions to ensure the safety and wellbeing of patients and staff.  I highly recommend this office to anyone in search of excellent stress-free dental care.

Greg G. from Tampa, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I recently had an new appointment with Dr. A and team.  First time in the office and my first impression was WOW!!!  Greeted by Marissa like i was an old family friend.  Dr. A and team were simply Top Notch in their approach and professionalism to my Dental care.  If you are looking for first class service, Gentle Dentistry should be your first and only call.  If you decide to go elsewhere for your dental needs, in my opinion you have made a big mistake!!!

★★★★★

Love this dental practice! They actually make going to the dentist a positive experience. The staff are fantastic and the office is spotless with top notch equipment. I’ve been a patient there for over a decade. I moved a couple years ago and am now over an hour and a half away, and I still go despite the long drive. Totally worth it, they’re that good!

★★★★★

I love going to Gentle Dental. Everyone there is so friendly and is always making you feel comfortable. The minute you sit in the chair, they ask if you want a blanket (which I never turn down!) During my fillings, they are always explaining what they are doing next, what I will be feeling, and checking in every so often. Highly recommended this place!

Tia M. from Greenfield, WI (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

The staff was super friendly and welcoming! I came in for an early cleaning and oral exam and left feeling cleaner than ever! They worked with my class schedule and I even received a welcome bag of goodies. I would highly recommend them to anyone in the Tampa area. The office is clean, cozy, and their music is great! My teeth sure are smiling!

Meghan R. from New Smyrna Beach, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I’m in the middle of getting my old composite bonding removed and replaced with porcelain veneers. I had my teeth bleached, bleach trays made, the old bonding removed and the temporary veneers put on. Next time I get the permanent veneers put on. The process so far has been much better than I had anticipated. They are truly gentle and care very much about your comfort. I was able to get some nitrous oxide so that I can relax which made all the difference for the 2+ hours I had to sit to have the old bonding removed. Later that evening, Dr. A called me on her way home to check on me. The entire staff and especially Dr A have a way of making you feel like you are their only patient. I can’t wait to see my new teeth! They are absolute perfectionists and I know it’s going to look amazing!

★★★★★

I chose this Dentist through Google reviews. I cannot express my gratitude to the team here! To say the facility is welcoming, homely and very comfortable would be completely honest and accurate! The staff here, every single member of it were conscientious, very attentive, engaging, Professional and hardest to find of all Honest! I’m British and hate the dentist! yes the stereotype is true! Gentle Dentistry exceeded all my expectations by quite some margin!

Mary W. from St. Petersburg, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Dr. Angela R. is a caring, gentle & communicative Dentist. Wait time is short, staff is extremely courteous, office is very clean. I live in Pinellas County and driving 20 miles to her practice. After trying a few other dentists close to my home, I recognize she is well worth the trip. Highly recommend her … and I’m afraid of dentists!

★★★★★

Dr Rasmussen and team are excellent. I have been a patient since 2009, and have always had good experiences. I never have to worry about pain, Dr R makes sure I don’t feel anything. My sibs were amazed when they saw how nice my teeth looked. My husband and daughter use Dr Rasmussen also. she did an excellent repair on my daughters chipped front tooth. Looks very natural. I recommend her to all my friends. It may cost more out of pocket, but worth every penny. Great dental practice!

★★★★★

Dr. Rasmussen and her staff are stupendous. They are all incredibly welcome and friendly. They speak to me very respectfully. The office was incredibly clean and well decorated as well. With their amazing attitudes and work ethic they took away my fewar of dentist. This all increases my confidence while getting dental work through her and her associates. Never again will I go anywhere else.

I broke a crown Saturday and called very early Monday morning to see if Dr Angela could work me in. They told me to come in at 11:00 AM at which time I was taken back and examined and the solution determined. Tiffany and Dr A worked on me for about 2 1/4 hours and I left with a perfectly fitting temporary crown, with the permanent crown due in 2 weeks. Later that evening Dr A called me at home to see how I was doing. This caring is what has kept me coming back to Gentle Dentistry for 28 years!

★★★★★

I have been a patient of Dr. Rasmussen for 30 years. She and her team have always been professional, courteous and friendly. They are knowledgeable and thorough. Most of all they are forthcoming with their services and recommendations. Dr. “A” makes you feel like family and Alexis will make you laugh, guaranteed. I guess it’s no coincidence they are known as the “A-Team”. Joe T.

I was a little nervous about getting crowns on my teeth because I did not want to experience any pain. Dr. A and her staff were wonderful. They explained all of the procedures as each step moved forward, and put me at ease. The process went very smoothly. Thank you for making this stressful event easy for me to handle!

I underwent a smile transformation with the Gentle Dentistry team, and I have been beyond satisfied with the entire process. My smile looks natural, healthy, feminine, youthful, and beautiful. It is my smile but better, just how it should be! The ladies who work here are professional, knowledgeable, polite, and easy to talk to. It is obvious they genuinely care about their patients. You can rest assured you’re in safe hands with Dr. A; she has high standards and knows exactly what she is doing. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dentist in the Tampa area! Thank you guys so much for helping me be confident about my smile!

Grateful for the great care I receive at Gentle Dentistry. Dr. Rasmussen provides exceptional care. The techs and office staff are tops. Before Gentle Dentistry, I never wanted to go to the dentist. I get such great care here that I recommend this office to any that need a dentist. I’ll gladly go oof my way to see them. I come from a neighboring county because the care is exceptional here.

Posting a quick note to thank Dr. Angela Rasmussen for today’s work & the processing/handling of the associated charges. It is truly a pleasure to receive treatment from such a group of dedicated, detail-oriented, friendly, and knowledgeable professionals. The entire team is exceptional and I wanted everyone to know that you are much appreciated. THANKS AGAIN – Scott Sims

★★★★★

I’m not really fond of visiting the dentist, but I went to see Dr. Rasmussen after by wife had such a good experience with her. The office is very friendly and well appointed. The staff is attentive and calming and Dr. Rasmussen is very professional and I feel comfortable with her recommendations and will be back to complete further treatment and plan to see her on an ongoing basis in the future. Highly recommend.

Teri B. from Lakeland, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I love you guys! Just moved to Tampa and was referred by husband. I *gently* nudged him about going to the dentist after a few months of living with him and he picked GD after noticing their sign regularly on way to work. He super hates going to the dentist and it shows. Dr A and her staff are taking good care of him with excellent cleaning and care with a gum care referral to take care of some serious gum disease issues. After my routine check up visit I can see why my husband is confident he’s getting excellent care here.

Andrea S. from Land O Lakes, Land O Lakes, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Everyone is always so pleasant and accommodating. The office is always immaculate and safe measures are in place during Covid 19. There is no fear when walking into Gentle Dentistry. Dr Angela Rasmussen is so knowledgeable and always makes certain when you leave you’re smiling Wanting to show off your beautiful teeth. Dr Angela Rasmussen is a full service dentist with specialty in cosmetic dentistry and facial treatments such as fillers for lips, frown lines, etc., botox, threading etc., to mention a few. I look 10 years younger and love looking in the mirror. The entire staff are there to meet all your needs with a smile and a pleasant environment. I couldn’t imagine going anywhere else. Don’t hesitate call now and make your appointment!

I have been terrified of the dentist for years but was at the point that I had to have work done, I can not tell you how comfortable this office makes you, they live up to their name. I love Dr. K and the patience she has with me. And the office staff is above reproach… they will go out of their way to make sure every need is met… Love this Place.

I have been going to Gentle Dentistry for over 31 years; I would not trust my teeth to anyone else; Dr. Angela’s team are total professionals and are interested in a pleasant outcome; I have had 2 full sets of veneers over the years and I am constantly getting compliments on my smile and white teeth. If you have an emergency they always do their best to work you into their busy schedule; The hygienist Alexis is great and is always ready to give great tips on good dental techniques. I feel like I am visiting my family when I go there and after all these years I feel like they are! Very pleasant dental experience – my entire family goes to Gentle Dentistry – thanks Dr. A for being there for us all these years!

Jenny S. from Tampa, FL (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Today I had such a great experience at Gentle Dentistry! I have always wanted to try lip enhancement, as my upper lip is very small, but I wanted to find a Dr. that I could trust. Dr. Angela Rasmussen was highly recommended by a close friend of mine. Their staff is amazing and Dr. Angela Rasmussen is simply the best at what she does. If you are looking for new Dentist, this office will make you feel right at home, with quality care you can trust and count on.

Having to admit that I was nervous about having work done was hard enough, but thanks to Dr. A and her team, they made it easy to put that fear behind me! They took the time to explain step by step what they were doing throughout the procedure, made sure I was comfortable, and continuously asked if “I was ok?” Not only did they show how much they cared about helping me get over my fear, but they really showed how much they cared about me as a person. They are top notch professionals that have a passion for what they do and compassion for how they do it! Thanks, again, ladies! ~MG

I have been seeing Dr. A and her staff for about 5 years now, and I couldn’t be more pleased. After a truly traumatizing experience with another local dentist (that left me anxious about visiting the dentist at all), I contacted my former dentist in the FL Keys (Charles Troxel, another FABULOUS dentist), and he highly recommended Dr. A…I only wish I had thought to ask him sooner. Dr. A was sensitive to my past experiences and was extremely gentle and patient with me. I cannot say enough about how wonderful she, her hygienist Alexis, and the rest of her staff is, how warm and comfortable they make me feel, and how pleased I have been with the results of the procedures performed (and I have had many!). Gentle Dentistry does not accept insurance, but they will file your claims for you and they get it done very quickly. You are only given one set of permanent teeth, it is not worth it to entrust them to those storefront chain “chop shops”.

Great practice! I love everyone at this office. The staff and providers are so kind and professional. I am always greeted with a smile. The office is very clean and modern. I hardly ever wait when I arrive for my appointment. I highly recommend Dr. Rasmussen and her staff/providers for anyone seeking dental care.

Thank you Dr A and the A team. You are amazing. Thank you for giving me my smile back. There are no words to express how awesome you and your staff are. You are highly recommend by me. There is none better, amazing. You went above and beyond to see me smile again. When your with the A team your in great hands.

I’m new to the Tampa area and had a crown fall out so I needed to see a dentist quickly. I called Gentle Dentistry and Diana was extremely helpful in getting me in to see Dr. A in an hour and a half. I met Diana and Rachel at the front desk and they took the time to explain what my copay would be when I had questions about coverage. Rachel who took the X-rays before seeing Dr. A made me feel comfortable and was careful to not take x-rays that weren’t needed. When I met Dr. A, she was very kind and took the time to listen to my extensive history. She got the crown cemented back on and took the time to talk to be about tooth care and what she recommends. Throughout the process she checked on my pain level and got my feedback before she moved on to each next step. Without me even being an existing patient, she took the extra time to answer my questions and advise me daily dental care. After everything was done, Diana took the time to look over my insurance history and caught a mistake that was made on an earlier appointment with a different dentist. She informed me of the mistake and advised me on what I should do to have it fixed. Overall, I was very satisfied with my experience.

This was hands down the most pleasant experience I’ve ever had at the dentist. Dr. A’s dental savings plan, for those of us with no dental coverage, cannot be beat by anyone in the state of Florida. The entire staff at gentle dentistry went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable and satisfied at every step of my visit. I’ve left every visit feeling like I was their number 1 priority, not just during my check ups, but from the time I step foot into the office. Best dentist in Tampa, hands down!!!
