Digital X-rays offer a huge advantage in early detection and preventive services. Advanced image manipulation and analysis, for example, allows your doctor to detect early stages of gum disease through recognition of bone level changes, or by evaluating the results against a previous treatment.

An intraoral camera is an indispensable diagnostic and educational tool. The tiny video camera moves around inside of your mouth and generates a tooth by tooth video exam of your teeth. Using an intraoral camera allows patients to better understand their dental needs by seeing what the dentist sees and then having it explained.

Lasers are a non-surgical approach to arresting the progression of periodontal disease. Following scaling and root planing, a laser is used to significantly reduce the bacterial colonies and decontaminate the infected periodontal pocket. Lasers also remove the infected tissue lining the periodontal pocket. As the infected tissue is removed, microscopic blood clots form and your body's natural healing response takes over. As you heal, the tissue reattaches to the bone and your gums return to a healthy infection-free state.

Everyone is professional and kind. My Dentist is wonderful. I'm very happy with them as I have always been afraid to go to the Dentist. Thank you. Laura Ressinger.

I had been a long time patient of this dental office until a terrible experience at my last appt. I was told during my check up that I needed deep cleaning of my gums due to early gum disease. I had never had a bad gum exam until then. The dentist told me I could not get my teeth cleaned or polished until I had the gum treatment done. I told him that I would have to wait a few months in order to save the $900 (!) it would cost out of pocket. I had a bad feeling about this and went to a different dentist for a second opinion. The second dentist informed me that I didn't have early gum disease and did not need a deep cleaning. I want to warn everyone about this and will not be returning to this dentist!

This dentist is absolutely the worse the receptionist are awful they overbook appointments blame you and not see you and waste your time. Even though they made a mistake. They up charge you make you come in for three appointments before even touching your mouth for the money and to rob your insurance yeah new patients might get treated fine but I've been a patient here for over six years. I am so done with Candlewood dental nobody should ever go there

This dental office charge extra cost to Seniors citizens such as lab fees. Integrity is not their rule of thumb when honoring contracts. I have to file a grievance on this company 2 years ago for over charges to one on my clients. They had the client take out a loan to pay for dental work that was no charge through their insurance.

Worst dental experience I went in for consultation due to pain in my mouth. I was given the breakdown of how much it would cost. Once I left I called to request medicine for the pain and was never contacted. Horrible customer service and dental experience. And my appointment was moved up in time and I wasn't seen until the original appointment time.

The absolute worst. I had a 2:00PM appointment and eventually found my Delta Dental ID card the girl at the front desk still insisted on speaking to a Delta Dental representative. We were made to wait 50 mins before another young lady finally was able to reach a representative and verify I actually had insurance. I will NOT be back.

This place and their other location on Sterns are exactly the same. They will up sell you to the moon and back, guaranteed. Every visit is a guaranteed quote of several thousand dollars for their "high tech laser" or "extra deep" cleanings. I should of never expected anything less from a big "corporate like" dental office. I will seek a small privately own dental office from now on. I've never had a cavity if that matters.

I would 10 out of 10 recommend Candlewood Smiles! The entire staff is always SO polite, positive, and professional. Dr Bach is amazing at what he does and KNOWS HIS STUFF! In the past year I've had numerous dental issues. Not only was the staff and Dr Bach accommodating, doing all they could to make me feel comfortable, they've also never led me astray. Like any other doctors office there are ups and downs, with that said, everyone at Candlewood Smiles has more than made up for those experiences. I truly feel like I am in safe hands at Candlewood Smiles! Thank you for everything!!

This place is notorious for making mistakes while creating appointments. Then if you arrive & check in, they don't bother to tell you that they made a mistake & they never booked the appt. instead they leave people sitting and waiting forever. Gave them another chance (even though I heard from various neighbors how bad this place was). While waiting 45 minutes passed my appointment time, I see another customer upset over appointment errors, while he was clearly suffering in pain. They were so rude and condescending to him. They tried to make him think he was crazy for coming in and told him he'll just have to suffer. The receptionists are the worst. This is a nasty, disgusting place. If people mention your office and they all have bad reactions... that's a big red flag. This place is horrid. I won't be coming back. I hope the other guy doesn't either.

My tooth chipped. During repair the dentist convinced me to repair 2 old fillings. The tooth chip repair failed after 2.5 months. My tooth fell out without pressure. The molar filling fell onto my tongue as I flossed my teeth, again, no pressure. That filling HAD been in for 10 years with no problems. I had given them 5 stars, but the work they've done has been ridiculously low quality, as they have a 66.7% failure rate within 2-3 months. My daughters are in NICU and I was told to come in at 10:39 for a repair. It's 12:04 and they haven't touched me. This is precious time I could be with my twins at the hospital. F* this place.

I am absolutely terrified of the dentist but here, the entire staff made me feel very comfortable. Dr's were very gentle and professional. Mind you I've only been there once but I'm sure they will not let me down. Definitely recommend them.
