I know my review is super long, but if you’re searching for a new dentist, please take the time to read this. Im only 29 years old, and I have horrible horrible teeth. Growing up i had perfect teeth…no braces, straight white pretty teeth. My first pregnancy in 2009 my teeth all of a sudden just literally started cracking. I tried to get dentist appointments but never enough to fully take care of them. Single mom working 2 jobs, my sons appointments were more important. But soon enough my teeth didnt seem to bother me too much, so i was in no hurry. Although i KNEW i needed quite a few pulled, i still put it off…i waz 22 i couldn’t imagine losing so many teeth. Well in 2012 i became pregnant again, and after about 4 months my teeth were again just breaking apart as i ate pizza. I had to have 4 teeth pulled, pregnant, no real painkillers. (Obviously a nightmare). After my daughter was born i tried seeing a dentist who didnt really seem to care too much about the patient. I got a few fillings from him, and had 1 tooth pulled. Everytime i had an appoitment id try to think of a reason to cancel it. I never felt comfortable there. I never felt like he actually cared. He probably wouldn’t have remembered my name 2 hours later. I switched dentists, per my mom’s recommendation. Well her dentist barely spoke english. I underatood 1 word out of 10. She barely numbed me before novacane. Would just stand up and walk out od the room when she waz done. Ive had horrible horrible PAINFUL experiences when it comes to the dentist……..Again sorry this is so long. The person who answered my call was so warm and friendly. The one who greeted me as i walked in, was so nice. The dental assistant was just so friendly. The dentist herself made me feel at ease. Unfortunately (for me hahaha) she is out on maternity leave. The other gentlemen who ended up doing 4….yes FOUR extractions was SO nice! He was very gentle, and kept making sure i was okay. My anxiety was through the roof. I didnt have any bruising, barely barely any swelling, and no joke….i was able to eat the next day! I very highly recommend them. Their staff is just amazing, as well as their dentists!

My experience at this dentist office was a good experience. The dentist and staff were friendly. The prices were higher then my other dentist, but “you get what you pay for.” I will definitely go back and refer patients to this dentist. I went in for a consultation and he offered to do the work the same day. That is a great dentist who cares about his patients. I  love the fact they have a tv to distract you from any procedure. The male dental assistant is very personable and makes sure you are comfortable. A good team!
