Dr. Waterman, hygienist Lauren, and the rest of the staff are absolutely wonderful. As someone who really disliked dental visits in the past, I always look forward to my appointments at Cloud Nine Raleigh Park. The staff are patient, caring, and thorough, in addition to the amazing care programs they off to those without insurance.

Dr. Waterman and all the staff are incredibly skilled and very nice. After neglecting my dental care for many years, I was hesitant (scared) to see a dentist.They never passed judgement and with their care and two root canals later, I'm back to good dental health!

Very good visit. The recommendation that I use Arm and Hammer toothpaste really paid off! Tartar on the run and little scaling had to be done! Also like the sonic device for tartar removal. Not at all painful.

It was great seeing Dr. Waterman again and I enjoyed meeting Lauren the hygienist and getting my teeth cleaned. My teeth feel amazing and Lauren was very gentle and gave me information about a toothpaste I might like. Great dental experience! I just had another great appt and it was wonderful to have a scan of my tooth for a crown instead of an messy impression done. Everything went smoothly and gentle. Everyone there works great as a team. Dr. Waterman is a great dentist!

The Doctors and staff are so professional, efficient and totally painless. I had three problems including a new crown taken care of in one visit. It was so easy and relaxing for me that I had two short naps wile four hands and tools grinding away took excellent care of my teeth. I finished my long day without any discomfort. Thank you Cloud Nine.
