PATIENT REVIEWS

I am the most nervous medical patient in all of America.  I’m sure Dr. Ahlbrecht and his staff used to cringe when they saw my name on the appointment list but after a few appointments I became less nervous with them and they found calm, soothing methods of working with me as a patient.  Plus they have The Wand which makes the anesthesia experience painless.  You hear a few beeps and next thing you know your cheek is numb.

I took the Dental Careers Foundations of Indianapolis class in January 2021. Dr. Ahlbrecht and his staff were amazing! They taught me everything I needed to know to start my career in dental assisting. I graduated in March and had a job by April with their expertise in job placement! A huge thank you to Dr. A and his team, I couldn’t be happier!

North Meridian Dental has a beautiful new office and a highly skilled, welcoming staff. Dr. Ahlbrecht does amazing dental work and has seen my entire family. It’s no surprise he was recently voted a top dentist in Indiana!

Rarely do I give out reviews but Dr Ahlbrecht and his staff are exceptional in providing care that is professional & courteous whether it is a small or complex issue. Being health professional myself , expectations are high and you can be assured that they have you best interests at heart

My entire experience with the staff and Dr. A was amazing and very comfortable. He is very attentive and answers all questions! I couldn’t recommend anyone better! The entire team at the office continues to impress me and support me through my journey! Thank you so much!

So glad I was referred to Dr. Ahlbrecht’s dental practice. Friendly, welcoming staff, and Dr. A is excellent. I’ve only been to the office twice, but each time I’ve been impressed. I’m particularly happy with the office’s use of the latest technology – that tells me that they keep on top of things!

Dr. Albrecht was very descriptive, took his time and answered all my questions, frankly. He explained what I need now, and what I can expect moving forward. Gwen made sure everything was in place and emailed me several times because of an insurance glitch on my part. Lots of time and effort from them for a new patient!

I have been going to Dr Albrecht for a few months for a full mouth dental restoration. I am about halfway through this process but I have to say I am getting very excited now that I can see the progress taking shape and I am closer to the end result! Dr A took extensive measurements and is very precisely making sure my bite comes together perfectly. This process was scary for me at first but this office is very nice and his staff are excellent and kind. Most importantly I have been put at ease by Dr Albrecht’s skill and professionalism and I already know that I have found the right place to have this restorative work done. 5 stars!

A mere FIVE STARS is not enough to rate this great dental practice. I will never leave Dr. Ben and his amazing crew. If you are lucky, he’s your dentist, too. If he’s not your dentist, make the change. I’m serious.

North Meridian Dental Excellence is a true reflection to it’s name. Dr. Ahlberht and his dental team are always professional and treat us like family. Our Hygienist Autumn is amazing, kind and skilled. She’s provided quality service for our entire family. We received top notch care and highly recommend North Meridian Dental Excellent. Thank you for all you do!

Dr. Albrecht is the best of the best! I can’t find enough positive adjectives to explain his professionalism, warmth, knowledge, competence, ability and the relevancy of his methods and technology made the experience of getting fillings and crowns fast, easy, and trauma free. The amazing dental professionals and support staff he employs represent the top of the industry and their teamwork and attitudes make any visit a pleasure. (yes a dental visit can be a pleasure!!!) I pay for all my care out of pocket and their prices are very fair for their services and expertise.

This whole team makes going to the dentist a pleasant experience. Gwen, at the front desk, is super friendly and always greets me with a smile. I recently had veneers done and my smile gets so many compliments! Dr. Ahlbrecht and Amber made sure that the procedure was pain-free and comfortable!

Dr. Ahlbrecht and his staff are amazing! They are thorough yet efficient and very personable. Their office is also beautiful and clean with state of the art equipment. The experience was completely pain free and Dr. Ahlbrecht talks you through each step as he goes. He and his team are the best! Highly recommend!

This was my first time needing any work done outside of regular cleanups and I have to say I was impressed. They have a real system going and I was in and out of there with a filling in no time flat! They are always kind and welcoming and I truly appreciate Dr Ahlbrecht and all his great staff!

As a current dental student, you could say I am a quite picky about my dental work. That being said, Dr. Albrecht fully exceeded my expectations; he is a great dentist who works very hard to make his patients happy. I cannot say enough good things about him and his team- highly, highly recommend him and his team!

This is actually Kevin doing this review. I am a dentist, and had what I thought would be a rather difficult procedure done by Dr Ahlbrecht today. Not only did he and Amber do a phenomenal job, but they were both completely vested in my comfort. A long procedure was easy and totally pain-free under their excellent care. My only question is: if you’re not already a patient of Dr. Ben, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? He’s the best! This is Dr Tolliver again. The review above was actually written a year ago. I did have an another appointment today for regular preventive maintenance with Kathleen and Dr Ben. My visit, as always, did not disappoint! This is a fabulous, professional office with the most skilled, friendly, efficient doctor and team. They are dedicated to total patient comfort, the latest techniques and equipment, and excellence in everything they do. A real gem for Central Indiana!

I love this office! Dr. Ahlbrecht is an amazing dentist– he really takes the time to listen to my concerns and present me with the best options. He pays attention to detail and ensures that I am comfortable during and after treatment. The entire team is very caring, knowledgeable and professional. I enjoy my dental cleanings because the hygienists are friendly, gentle and thorough. I highly recommend this office to anyone in need of a dentist!

Dr. Ben and staff have turned my dental health around. After over 7 years of staying away from dental care (my bad!), I needed multiple procedures and have spent many hours with this great team. Even after moving 100 miles south I make the trip because they cared enough to help me over my dental anxiety and are top notch professionals Thanks and see you not soon due to your great work❗️

I wish I could give more than 5 stars for this place. First off, everyone who works at this office is amazing. They’re all so genuinely nice and want you to have a comfortable time while you’re there. I found this office on Google when I was searching for a new dentist since I had just moved to the area. I called and immediately got an appointment. What I was expecting to be a simple routine checkup turned into something much more when I was told I needed a root canal. Dr. Ahlbrecht was great at explaining what needed to be done and why, and also referred me to a great endodontist to perform my root canal. After that, I was able to get back to Dr. Ahlbrecht and he then began the process of whitening and then putting crowns on my front teeth. I just got them finished and I am THRILLED with the result. He made sure that they were what I wanted before applying them permanently. I couldn’t be happier. They look so much like my old teeth and I seriously can’t stop smiling. I think my favorite part about North Meridian Dental Excellence is that they explain everything they are doing and why they’re doing it. You’re never left in the dark. Dr. Ahlbrecht even called me later that day after a procedure just to make sure I was holding up okay. The entire team is so thorough, from the procedure your getting done to explaining payment options when you’re finished. This entire team and office is so great and I can’t recommend them highly enough!

I owe Dr Ahlbrecht several reviews because he is a wonderful practitioner who cares about meeting the dental needs of his patients. His staff is professional, hospitable and efficient. I highly recommend this dental practice! Thank you Dr Ben for treating me so well.

I decided to go to North Meridian Dental Excellence based on the review of a colleague – I was finally making the switch to a new dentist from my previous hometown dentist (who I had seen for my entire life) after living in Indianapolis for a few years. I have been very impressed with Dr. Ahlbrecht and his team (notably, his receptionist Gwen). Dr. Ahlbrecht took a lot of time at my first appointment to really get to know me and my teeth. After years of having my gums bleed (I have always taken care of my teeth properly and gone to the dentist twice a year to have my teeth cleaned) and being told that there’s nothing I can do to fix it, I went back for a periodontal cleaning at Dr. Ahlbrecht’s office, which helped my gum bleeding problem stop! As a young professional, this experience was one of my first off of my parent’s insurance plan and on my own. Gwen not only created a welcoming, friendly atmosphere in the office, but she and her colleagues were more than happy to help me figure out my insurance and what the cost of everything was going to be. They were really understanding and very supportive and I’m so appreciative of that!

Dr. Ahlbrecht and his team are amazing. They always make me feel welcomed and it’s always a pleasure catching up with them. I literally leave with a smile on my face. As someone who’s had traumatic dental experiences in the past, Dr. A’s team has been so down to earth and compassionate, that I wouldn’t think of going anywhere else. I also love the automated appointment reminders to keep me on track. Couldn’t recommend them more.

Dr. Ahlbrecht and his team are wonderful. My teeth and gums have never looked better! Gwen, at the front, has a ready smile and is so helpful in figuring out all of the insurance nuances. I’m so happy this practice was recommended to me!

I was experiencing serious problems from previous dental work. My son, daughter in love and four grandsons referred me to North Meridian Dental Excellence. Dr. Ahlbrecht corrected my bite, relieving pain and discomfort. Best hygienist cleaning I’ve ever had. The entire staff is very nice and caring always make you feel comfortable and welcome. Totally Excellent treatment! Thank you all!

I recommend Dr. Alhbreict for all your dental services. He is meticulous & detail-focused in performing any dental work/tooth restoration. This was especially important for me when repairing teeth in the front of mouth. Lucky for me , cosmetic dentistry is his specialty! Not only were my dental procedures not uncomfortable , he is the first dentist who performed numbing in several intervals. I did not experience any discomfort whatsoever. He should be teaching other dentists how to do their job better! I also appreciated his exceptional manors! I observed his superb manors in how he treated me & how he interacted with his staff throughout my visits and procedures. Repetitive verbalizations of “Please and thank-you” go a long way in respecting and appreciating the staff that you work with. Overall, an amazing experience and results from receiving care at Dr. Ahlbreict’s office. I highly recommend!

The office is always impeccably clean and the staff very pleasant and helpful. I was able to get my entire procedure done while I was there today. The dental assistant was very knowledgeable and gentle. She explained each step of the process. Dr Albrecht examined my teeth before and after the procedure to be sure everything was exact. I would recommend this office to anyone!

I LOVE this place! I used to work here and still go back for all of my dental care needs! That says a lot! The entire staff is always out for their patient’s best interest, they are detail oriented and truly care! I was VERY impressed with the protocols they have implemented since COVID-19; just another way to show how much they care! Kathleen did an amazing job on my cleaning today as well! This team is THE BEST!

Dr Albrecht is absolutely the best dentist I have ever been to. Everyone in this office is very pleasant and professional. Their equipment is state of the art. You can tell that Dr. Albrecht stays up to date on the most current treatments and practices. He is a true artist when it comes to dental restoration. Beautiful work!!!

I am the most nervous medical patient in all of America. I’m sure Dr. Ahlbrecht and his staff used to cringe when they saw my name on the appointment list but after a few appointments I became less nervous with them and they found calm, soothing methods of working with me as a patient. Plus they have The Wand which makes the anesthesia experience painless. You hear a few beeps and next thing you know your cheek is numb.

This is a top notch dental office. From the moment you walk in the door you are welcomed and made to feel at home. Everyone on staff is great. The hours are very accommodating. I travel about 60% of my time and I often have to move my appointments and they are quick to find alternatives. Dr. A — what a great person, so patient, easy to work with and understand. I’m glad I found your office. I look forward to my visits each time.

I have been seeing dr. Albrecht since he became a dentist. I have had extremely bad Dental experiences in the past, but he made me feel comfortable. He told me what I needed to hear rather than what I wanted to hear. I would recommend dr. Albrecht. He’s really good at what he does.

Dr. Ahlbrecht and the entire staff are outstanding! Right when you walk in, you are greeted with a smile. They obviously have a passion for dentistry and take pride in their work. Dr. Ahlbrecht has state of the art equipment and all of my procedures have been pain-free and done with the utmost care and attention to detail. Highly recommended!

My name is Alvernis Johnson. I am a public speaker and I use words for a living however at this moment there are none that can describe the gratitude I have for you and your staff at North Meridian Dental Excellence. The name says it all “Dental Excellence” is exactly what you deliver. Thank you for you amazing manner and genuine concern for my well being while I was in your care. I can truly say that you won my trust and put me at an incredible ease and comfort. Your professionalism is unmatched and your staff is top notch! I want you to know that I only sing in the key of truth and I’ll be singing your praises for a long time. Thank you seems so small for all you’ve done but it’s the sincerest way I can express my gratefulness to you and your staff. I am not surprised that you are the number one dentist office in Indianapolis!!!! God Bless You Dr. Ben!

I had a severe phobia of dentists that dated back to when I was young. I used to go to the only dentist in my small town where there was no such thing as making the patient comfortable. In the 70’s doctors were ruff, didn’t wear masks, glasses or gloves. In my 20’s and away from the parents I’d go years between dentist visits because I was terrified. This led to longer more difficult cleanings. It had been about 4 years since my last visit and a crown fell off. I searched online and found Dr. Ahlbrecht by luck. I was looking for someone nice and his picture made him look nice. Lol The first time I went in I told him about the crown falling off and my severe phobia of dentists. It was like he took that as a challenge. He taught me tricks to help calm down, he gave me headphones to wear, he’d explain everything he was about to do and showed me the tool before he did the next step. Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t suddenly cured but my experience was so much better than my 1976 doctor with lumberjack fingers. Dr. Ahlbrecht put me on a cleaning schedule of every 3-4 months rather than 6 months like most people. What this does is gets me in quicker so the plaque has less time to form so then it’s easier and much quicker for his hygienists. Dr. Ahlbrecht has all the new technology and he fitted me for Invisalign braces which worked out great. Every time I see him he’s got a new plaque (pun intended) hanging on the wall announcing him as Top Dentist of Indy and continued education. I hope the readers of this review will know this is a 100% unsolicited review of my dentist. I feel very lucky to have found him. I know I’ve given him some headaches during my early visits but he’d never show it. One last thing, I don’t see turnover with his staff. The basic core of employees has stayed the same since the first day I stepped into his office 6 years ago. That tells me that he’s not only a great dentist, but also a great boss. Sincerely Mike C.

I am a dentist’s nightmare…while I try to follow directions and make sure I’m doing everything right, I always end up messing something up or causing problems. Dr. Albrecht and his staff are the nicest, most accommodating and AMAZING people you will come across. Oh, and they are pretty amazing at their jobs too!!! From Gwen at the front desk to the entire dental team, they all take pride in their jobs and go the extra mile to make sure they got it right. Dr. Albrecht has gone above and beyond with a very long and complicated case with my front teeth. I broke countless temporary veneers, called his office at the weirdest hours and have needed to be seen in the most interesting of circumstances. It’s great to go to a dentist that you like, that you trust and who stands behind their work. Hands down the BEST dentist in Indianapolis…..their outcomes are amazing just see for yourself. As shy and self-conscience as we all can be with our smiles, its important to go to a dentists office where you feel welcome, judgement goes out the window and your best interests are truly at the forefront. For real – do yourself a favor and ditch your old dentist and come and see Dr. A and his amazing staff…you won’t regret it!
