I was upset because they wasted all the time on a mouth guard that won't even help me. My teeth are the way they are because of past drug use, and they are better than most! That lady had no right to come outside and assault my mothers truck and cuss me out. Very unprofessional !

I was happy with BH until they let Dental Hygienist Jen go. Now, I have to go find a new dentist. Something doesn't feel right there. I'm not happy with the rest of the people there. One in particular.

I have been going to Bristol Heights Dental for 21 years and they are the best dental office I've ever been a patient in, and that includes at least 10 other dentistry offices in Idaho and out of state! Their scheduling is always on time, with a 0-5 minute wait, and Dr. Shipp and his staff- Jen, Wendy, etc. - are excellent and very courteous. It's also very affordable treatment.

Really nice front desk staff. Hygienist(Jennifer) was great as well. I'm terrible at flossing and she listened to my difficulties with it and did not judge. Gave me a good option to improve going forward. Cleaning was very gentle . Will definitely keep coming back.
