I have terror attacks about the dentist, I have since I was a child, I had a horrible experience in childhood the novocaine shot went through my cheek!!! My entire face was black for a month, I was 8 years old!! I have never had a better experience with the dentist, they're so kind , caring and patient with you, I wish I would have found them years ago. Absolute best dental facility I've ever gone to in my life. They truly do deserve better than five stars.!!!!!

We are sooo lucky to have this outstanding dental practice in our little town of Hogansville. I have yet to interact with one staff person there that wasn't very capable AND very pleasant. Check them out and see for yourself!

I was in severe pain because of an infected tooth root canal. It was going to take over a week to get in with another dental surgeon. I called at 8:30 in the morning and my tooth was fixed before lunch. I would give them a 6 if I could. The staff there are professional and very nice. They also take care of my elderly mother's dental needs. It's great to have such a good dentist office so close by in Hogansville!

We love Childress Dental Center! They treat us like family whenever we are there, even holding my daughter while I got my teeth cleaned. Our dental hygenist is more like a friend, chatting and catching up with us at each cleaning. They always take good care of our teeth and provide quality service! 10/10 recommend!
