Highly recommend Dr. Ford and her team!! I hate the dentist - or hated until this office! They are caring, don't rush you, ensure you're comfy and will take the time to talk about options and explain things so that you can make informed decisions about your care. Plus! They are great with kids!! Can't say enough positive things about Dr. Ford! You won't be disappointed.

Really good advice and treatment. Have been a dental patient there for over thirty years and every visit has been excellent, with great results and a minimum of discomfort - they are truly "good hands" people. Highly recommended!

Dr Ford uses the latest technology for scanning your teeth for Invisalign. No "impressions"! Gabby scanned my teeth and made the process fun and simple. You watch on the screen as the small camera scans your teeth - very cool!

I have been going to this dental practice for ages. I took a poverty induced hiatus from dental care for about a decade and went back during the start of COVID for two broken teeth. Everyone there has been unfailingly kind and compassionate, and I have received excellent care. Karin and Dr. Ford are skilled and gentle, and they are just really nice people, which is something you don't always see in healthcare. I highly recommend them.
