Came in thinking I had an infected tooth, but x-rays said otherwise. Dr Scull gave me an explanation for my pain that would have never crossed my mind. Left with a smile!

I've been going here for about 20 years and they have always been great. At one point I had to have a fair amount of work done and they were awesome- I didn't feel a thing. My job moved out of the area several years ago but I still take the day off to go there. They are by far the best I have ever had. I would especially recommend them to anyone who is reluctant because they are afraid the work may hurt ir be uncomfortable- you will have no worries about that here.
