PATIENT REVIEWS

Dr. Clodfelter and team are the best. I’ve been a patient since I moved to Nashville 20 years ago. They are caring, professional and FUN! My visit last week was my first cleaning with Jessica. I had my grandchildren with me, and she was more than patient and answered all of their questions, and treated them like people and not a bother, even though I knew they were. Thank you Jessica!

My husband and I have been going to Dr. Janet for several years now and we have nothing but high praise for her and her team. My husband had some work done on his uppers and, for the first time since I’ve known him, he smiles showing his teeth in pictures. He was always very self-conscious of his smile but now he is so proud! They look amazing, realistic and professional. I’ve never had to wait past my appointment time either, a big plus when scheduling my day. I actually look forward to going to the dentist now.

The best experience I have ever had at a dentist office and it was a tooth pulling. The entire staff were unbelievably nice, professional and went out of their way to make me as comfortable as possible and ease my anxiety. Dr Clodfelter was honestly the best doctor/dentist/health care provider I’ve ever been treated by. Cannot recommend Nashville Smile Creations and Dr Clodfelter enough. I don’t have insurance in network but I will gladly pay out of pocket every time because of the truly unbelievably pleasant experience at a dentist office I’ve ever had. Do yourself a favor and go see Dr Clodfelter!

The entire staff was very friendly and efficient. Narkeita was my hygenist, and she was very nice, professional and caring. She was very thorough and made sure that I was comfortable and not in any pain. I highly recommend Dr Clodfelter and her fantastic staff. Together, they made a trip to the dentist into something that I no longer dread. Thanks for the great care!

If you are looking for a friendly and caring dentist with an awesome staff, you must meet Dr. Janet Clodfelter and her team. I must admit that getting my teeth worked on is not one of my favorite things to do, but Dr. Janet, Megan, and Katie are so nice that I find myself following through on routine dental care without all the dread. They are truly amazing!

Dr. Clodfelter and her wonderful team are been top notch in my book.  They can perform more in one visit than I’ve ever had done in “several” visits elsewhere.  Judy is my hygienist and I love her to pieces!  I know I am getting the very best dental care and they sincerely do CARE for their patients.  I’ve recommended many people and will continue to do so!!

Best Team, Best Dentist, Best Service—I’ve been a patient at this dental office for 30 years, and I cannot recommend them more highly. They are just great people who treat their patients like family. Over the years, I have changed my dermatologist several times, changed my hair stylist, changed my family doctor, etc. but I would never consider going anywhere else but Dr. Janet’s.

Being new to Nashville and to the Donelson area, I looked on Yelp! for recommendations for a dentist. Having read many excellent reviews for Dr. Janet and her staff, I made an appointment today for a cleaning and check-up.The front office staff were welcoming and friendly, and later very helpful at check out. My hygienist, Jessica was wonderful, very thorough and personable, explaining things as she went along – she also did a great job with my cleaning. And then, Dr. Janet – fabulous…..professional but funny and I felt like she did a great job recommending a plan for some future dental work, without being pushy. I totally trust Dr. Janet. I will definitely be going back!!!

I have avoided going to the dentist for so long that when I finally found Nashville Smile Creations with a broken tooth, I needed a crown, an extraction a filling and several veneer replacements. I let them know my horrible fear and anxiety about dental work from the start and I have to say that yesterday I completed my 4th appointment and I actually hugged Dr. Glodfelter on the way out. They made me feel so comfortable and literally talked me thru every step, checked on me, asked how I was doing and never made me feel like I was anywhere but a very safe space…. this was something I needed. My smile is now healthy and quite beautiful! My veneers look amazing and I’m ALMOST looking forward to going back in in a few weeks, mostly to say hi to everyone. The entire staff makes you feel so at home, I can not recommend them enough!!!

I have been going here for over ten years and would love to recommend this office and it’s amazing staff to anyone looking. All three of my children, ages 4-13 have been coming here since they were 3, are known and greeted by name, made to feel special and receive exceptional care with every visit. I never expected to enjoy/recommend or appreciate a dentist office as much as I do Dr. Clodfelter’s and “company”, and am extremely grateful I am able too!

Hygienist Veronica did a really wonderful job during my visit! I have put off visiting the dentist because of a severe dental phobia. When I expressed this to Veronica, she was very understanding and worked with me to make me feel more comfortable. She was also very accommodating by moving her schedule around to make sure we could do as much work as possible in a single appointment without me having to come back for another visit. I would highly recommend visiting Veronica and this office. I rarely post reviews, but I wanted to share in case another person is as afraid as I am to visit the dentist. This is the place you want to be!

As a fully grown adult male, I am not ashamed to say that I am still petrified of going to the dentist. The sounds and pressure and vulnerable laid back position is all too scary. Smile Creations made everything about my visit so much more pleasant than my previous corporate dentist. From the phone call, to the check in, to the cleaning. Everybody there treated me like family, shared stories with me and made me feel like I have been visiting them for years. I can guarantee I will not be returning from here on out. Thank you Dr. Janet and your team at Smile Creations.

Had my teeth cleaned today and as always was treated fabulously! This group has been my dental team for years. As a person that suffers from true “dental phobia” they make every visit easy for me. The team members are professional, caring and truly there to make each visit easy for the patient. Their work and treatment has made it easier over the years for me to take care of my smile. Such an important part of taking care of my health. (They taught me this. I certainly didn’t know how important your dental health is to your overall health.) A comfortable office with a laidback atmosphere. I would recommend this group to anyone!

I usually wouldn’t take the time to write a review of a dentist’s office unless I had a horrible experience, but honestly, this place is the best. Everyone on the staff here is so warm and so kind. They are professional but also very human, and I felt at home. I’ve been here three times now, and each time I felt taken care of, comfortable, and well-informed the whole time. They care about their patients, and they do a fantastic job. I could not recommend them more!

I came in yesterday for a surgical extraction. Dr. Janet and her staff were wonderful.. I cannot express how great they were with me and how they eased my fears. I’ve had very little pain after the extraction and it’s healing nicely. I plan on coming back soon, and I will be recommending Nashville Smile Creations to everyone I know.

Dr. Clodfelter has been my dentist for 10 years. When I first moved to Nashville I wanted a dentist that was close to my office and one providing excellent care. After some referrals from friends I made my first appointment. Ten years later I’m still a fan of everyone at this office and still a patient. The team at Dr. Clodfelter’s office keeps me on my dental plan schedule and a healthy mouth. I can’t leave this review without saying how wonderful my Dental Hygienist has been all these years. You will love this group!

I was referred by a friend/coworker when I needed to see a dentist close to work ASAP! They got me in right away!! Everyone was so considerate, welcoming and friendly.. Dr. Janet Clodfelter was the most thoughtful and caring dentist I have ever been to! I could definitely tell she was genuinely concerned for my wellbeing; she even placed a follow up call to me the next morning to see how I was doing.. WOW!! That’s hard to find these days. I work in the medical field with Dr’s that have always practiced this way as well.. Now, I personally see why it means so much to our patients! Thank you to the entire Nashville Smile Creations team for doing what you do-it does make a difference!

I’m 72 years old, so I’ve been to a lot of dentists in my life. However, the first time I went to a *good* dentist was four years ago, when a friend recommended Dr. Clodfelter’s office. I’ve since recommended her several times to others. All of them have been equally satisfied. She’s no-nonsense, clearly explains what’s happening, and is highly skilled, as are the people she hires.

Being new to Nashville, I have had a hard time trying to find places the feel like home. I can attest that this office does just that! I had some sensitivity on a tooth that has been bothering me on and off for a few years. Whenever I tried to bring it up to my dentist back home, he disregarded it and told me that I was fine. My new hygienist, Jessica, actually listened to my concerns and took the time to explain what my x-ray showed. She was compassionate and informative. Dr. Janet came to look at my mouth, and for the first time I felt like a doctor was actually taking what I felt seriously. It turns out, I did have a cavity! Dr. Janet had time that day to do my filling. She could tell that I was nervous so she took the time to explain what she was doing and what I may be feeling as she was working. Both she and her assistant, Ronda made sure that I was comfortable as they both asked if I was okay periodically and made me laugh the whole time! Especially if you are new to town, you will not regret going to this office!

My past dental experiences have been pretty bad (to put it mildly.) I told the staff ahead of my appointment of my issue and they were beyond kind. They put me at ease and provided my care with minimal pain and discomfort. (The injection was the ONLY pain! The root canal was no problem!) I cannot express my thanks enough for their care, consideration and concern. I am thankful to have found Dr Clodfelter and her staff!

It’s like going to a family when I go to see Dr. Janet. Her staff is amazing and so competent, and she genuinely cares about every patient and every mouth she touches. Highly recommend this wonderful Dr. and her whole staff. And I’ve got the smile to prove it

As always the staff was friendly and professional. All of the staff explained everything until I was satisfied. From my insurance plan to the type of dental paste they used. Nashville Smile Creations is the first and only dentist office to which I actually look forward to going. They are all wonderful caring people who give their absolute best every time I see them. (I also like the cartoons on the ceiling.)

I started going to Janet 2 years ago when I moved to Donelson. Very welcoming atmosphere with friendly smiles and fun decor. Her whole staff have been great with my kids (and me.) I have never felt pressured to do a treatment I didn’t want to and Dr. Janet has always gone above and beyond to make sure I am happy with any repair or treatment my family receives. In short, stop reading reviews and go to Dr. Janet, she’s the best.

If I could give this office more than 5 stars I would. As a matter of fact I’d give it a 10! I started going to Dr. Clodfelter approximately 7 years ago after I moved to Nashville. The staff was wonderful and the service I received from this dentist and my hygienist was amazing. About 2 years later, my employer changed our dental provider and unfortunately Dr. Clodfelter did not accept that plan. I hated to leave but at the time could not afford to pay for my care out-of-pocket. That was the worst mistake I could have ever made. I tried a couple of other dentists and was not really satisfied with either. During this time I also had a root canal and got a couple of crowns. Not only was I charged an excessive amount (in lab fees according to the dentist) but the work was horrible and the crowns still do not fit properly. This year I decided that I was finally going to have some extensive work done on my top teeth including replacing numerous fillings that were more than 20 years old and most importantly, straightening a front tooth that had always been a source of embarrassment for me. To ensure that my 3 children did not have the same issues I’d experienced, I had paid for orthodontist services for all of them and ensured that their dental health was maintained. At 55, I felt it was my time. Since this was going to be the fulfillment of a long time dream, I didn’t want to take any changes that the work would not be done correctly. I immediately contacted Dr. Clodfelter’s office for an assessment and cost estimate. When I arrived for my appointment, I was greeted warmly by all of the staff. My hygienist even came over to say hello after recognizing my name on the schedule for the day. I can’t tell you how wonderful that made me feel. It was as if I’d never left. Dr. Clodfelter not only did the assessment but also took the time to walk me through all of the x-rays, the procedure, and my options to get the smile I wanted. I felt she truly listened to me. By the time we were finished, I knew I wanted her to do the work and even though my insurance wouldn’t cover it, I was willing to pay for the work out-of -pocket. We scheduled my appointment that day. After the initial work was done and I received my temporary crowns (10 of them), I was in a lot of pain. Dr. Clodfelter gave me something for pain AND called me that evening and the next morning to check on me! I believe it was the calls that actually made me feel better. I returned two weeks later to receive my permanent crowns and when I was given the mirror to see my new smile I wanted to cry. I looked like a different person. Words could not express how happy I was and how good I felt. Dr. Clodfelter was kind enough to take a picture of me to share with my family and friends. I couldn’t wait to get home to send the texts so I left her office, went around the corner and sent the picture to my children, sister, BFF, and a coworker. They were just as excited and happy as I was. Thank you so much Dr. Clodfelter! You’ve changed my life. Blessings to you and all the staff……Karen C.

I had a wonderful experience at Dr. Clodfelter’s office today. I had my appointment with Judy, my dental hygienist, and she was amazing. I hadn’t been to the dentist in a little while and she put my nerves at ease and was incredibly gentle the entire time.  Great and friendly staff all around, now I won’t dread dental visits!! Thank you so much!!!

You will not regret visiting Dr. Clodfelter and her kind and highly skilled staff.  I have been a patient there for about 6 years and would never trust my teeth to anyone else.  I’ve been to others in the area before that and I speak from experience, they are the best in the area!  She is also very involved in bettering the Nashville.  She provides free dental services to domestic violence victims through a shelter in the area.  That’s just one of the many things she does for the community.  She’s a great person and her staff is A+!

Came in for just a cleaning but they found that I had two teeth that were cracked and needed crowns.  Was fortunate that they had time today to get the process started so that I didn’t have to come back again just to get it started.  They did a great job at keeping me comfortable during the lengthy procedure.  I really appreciate their time and compassion.

Just met Jessica, had a nice time getting to know her, enjoyed her joke. I have never developed great dental hygiene habits, but we agreed it was better for me to be non-compliant than to lie about daily flossing. She was very easy with me, a decided plus since I have had phobias about dental visits for years.

It’s weird to say, but I really look forward to going to the dentist! Three years ago, I went to Dr. Clodfelter’s office for the first time… it was also my first time going to the dentist in about 10 years. Dr. Clodfelter was great, and she provided outstanding guidance and service in a comfortable environment. Not to mention, she is always smiling! But, of all the people in office, Judy is my favorite! She makes all that cleaning and poking and maintenance completely bearable; it’s like she has the magic touch. Further, I love her ceiling posters!

Dr. Clodfelter is prompt, very professional, and has a big fun personality. I always enjoy my experience there. Her work is awesome and I have had a lot. I always leave feeling confident about my smile and in no pain, even later.  I love the background music and clean, sterile atmosphere. The staff is always friendly! Kudos to Lynn.

5 stars, gold star, top stars this team deserves them all…I pride myself on keeping my dental hygiene up to standards. Since my move to Nashville; which was a year ago I ventured on a search to find professional, friendly, welcoming, a team who knows and appreciate their profession; finally my search is over Nashville Smile Creations you are an AWESOME team. Thank you for making me feel like I’ve been a customer for years and thank you for my beautiful, bright, white smile.

These ladies are some of the best people Ive met in my life especially Megan. I cant thank you enough. Im gonna try to call soon as I can talk. I’d like to see if you need any help tomorrow at your event like setting up tables, chairs or whatever you need

I absolutely LOVE this office!!!! We started here in 2008 but after we moved it was no longer convenient so we tried to go to another dentist…. The level of personal care was no match to Nashville Smile Creations. So we are now back here, despite the drive time. I’d rather take a 30 minute drive to see a dentist who truly cares about me and my family, who has an office staff that knows our names and remembers us, than to drive 1 mile to see a dentist who doesn’t even greet us when we walk in! They are polite, down to earth and non-judgmental. It’s not about money or seeing a certain number of patients, this office cares for the patient as if they are family! ❤️

Had a veneer come off while I was eating lunch and Dr Janet had it back on less than an hour later! She saved me from being toothless for the next 8 weeks in Fort Leonardwood. Thank you Dr Janet! Superhero of the day!
