My husband had a broken bolt .His implant have been in place for at least 8 years and were done at Ohio State University. Dr. Painter provided a few avenues to solve our seemingly unsolvable problem. Thank you, Dr. Painter!!

DO NOT recommend Auburn family Dentistry. Scam company!!! Husband and I had teeth done last year and they told us we both had cavities, but in order to even schedule to fix we would have to pay in full right then and there after our cleaning. We did not and moved on. Fast forward to this year. I took the kids there for cleanings. On the phone they told me yes they accept Tri-Care for the military. Since that visit I went to another dentist and found out I do not have cavities and that Auburn got it completely wrong. Today I get a bill in the mail for $430 for Auburn Family for my kids cleanings that they in fact don't accept the Tri-care. Upon calling them their statement was well we work with them if we can but we don't make promises. Wait a minute!!! You went from we accept to we work with to we can't promise anything. HUGE red flag. Just avoid people!

I was SO nervous to get multiple crowns. The team was very supportive and caring. Sedation dentistry is the way to go! My appointment was around 5 hours, under sedation felt like a half hour! I was so relaxed, it was smooth sailing all the way. I highly recommend giving them a try

I've had 3 dentists and Dr. Painter is by far the best I've had so far. The entire experience from start to finish is extremely smooth. He ensures his patients comfort the entire time. Jessica was also super helpful and was great.
