After decades of fear of the DDS, I have found one that understands that the anxiety and fear is real! DDS Nicole Griffith made it possible for me to be comfortable enough to handle more than a cleaning. She is just that good!

First of all Lisa is amazing from start to finish she was a breath of fresh air from the first phone call she was a everything and more. Lisa is what great customer service looks , I was in pain beyond this world she got me in same day(called me less than 30 minutes after call to make sure I was taken care of that morning when someone canceled so I could get in immediately ) let me say all staff was good Dr .Griffith was beautiful inside and out making sure I was comfortable throughout the whole procedure. Lisa needs a bigger roll for me she is the face of excellence she is my new family member and she doesn't even know it. I never thought I could come in so much pain and leave so relaxed, if you are looking for professional comfort and genuine concern go see them they are a class act Lisa top notch.

This is the best dental experience I've ever had! They have early hours allowing me to go in before work and I've never sat in the waiting room longer than a few minutes. They were so gentle on my teeth and provided solutions to my problems. I will be returning and I recommend Commonwealth Dentistry to everyone!

Dr. Bill and Heidi were awesome. They were very personable and comforting. Dr. Bill was patient and ensured that I was comfortable prior to starting the procedure. The dreaded numbing of the gums was not bad at all; didn't even feel it. I'm so excited that I was able to find a dental practice like this one. Will recommend to all.
