Love this place between the friendly administration and doctors to the easy texting communication system they make parents life so easy. We moved to this practice after our old dentist decided to drop our insurance and I'm glad we did. I take my 3 children there and they deserve 5 stars or even 10 definitely recommend them.

They are awesome!!! My little guy (2 years old) was super nervous. The dentist sang to him and explained everything she was doing. He did cry, but left with a huge smile

I have been taking my children here for about 2 years now. I love them! Dr. Blair is great, every technician we have ever had has been great, the admin team have been awesome as well. One of my children is high anxiety and even through COVID they understood it was better for me to be close by. They explain everything to both my kids and me, answer every question, they are realistic and understanding. The facility is always clean and taken care of. I'm not usually quick to put up a public review on a company because anyone can have a good or bad day, but 4 years and two children later this facility, doctor, technicians, and admin team never disappoint me. I'm grateful a friend recommended them to me.

Dr. Blair is truly the best dentist I've ever taken my children to. I'm so jealous that Craft's does not accept adults. Her staff is amazing. Very respectful, patient and friendly. Dr. Blair and staff are always welcoming. The facility is clean. Clean!!! A must visit.

Craft smiles is amazing! I am a pediatric nurse, so I'm very particular about the care that my daughters receive! From the beautiful new facility ,to the friendly front desk ladies, to the kid focus waiting room, we had virtually no waiting! The hygienists were so incredible and helped my 2 and 3 year old daughters feel so comfortable! They were awesome! Dr. Lauren and Dr. Blair were so friendly and professional and informative and helped answer all of my questions. Everything went so quick but the staff were all focused on the patient and making sure it was a good experience, it was great!!

Awful customer service. I was not informed there was a different provider scheduled on Thursday's and I did not like the care plan that was given for my child. They themselves scheduled me an appointment with her original provider to follow up on my child's care plan. Yet, when I go to the appointment I get billed at the front desk for a "consultation". To my understanding, the front desk changed the appointment type to a "consult" and I was never informed that an out of pocket charge was going to apply.

Called front desk to confirm appointment for my daughter. This was rescheduled on the offices side due to snow which was not the issue. I asked if we could come a bit earlier for the new appointment and the front desk blamed me for canceling the appointment when the office was the one who canceled. When we arrived on time we waited another 30 minutes for a 50 minute appointment then Dr. said she wasn't going to have someone apologize for an appointment mishap and until she listened to the call. I was still upset and she said she did want to work on my daughter any longer. She was rude and I feel if I were white it would have gone another way. I am reporting her to BBB and Dentistry Board. moved . D to the appointment. Once Dr. Blair enter the room she immediately said so

I LOVE THIS PRACTICE!!!! The hygienist and the doctors are always so patient and extremely friendly. They take time to throughly clean my sons teeth and immediately alert you of any possible concerns they may have before it has the chance to get worst. They have prevented two possible situations with my sons teeth had they not been a thorough practice. Dj and I thank you and appreciate your many services. I highly recommend this dentistry to all children. P.S. they have T.V.'s in every room to keep your little ones busy during service.

So many great reviews I wanted to love this place. However I had a different experience with my daughter. I could tell Dr. Blair more interested in money than her patients. The front staff was also unfriendly I'm truly surprised due to this practice only works with kids.

Always satisfied with Dr. Blair and Staff. They make the experience for the children pleasant and with an air of fun for them. They always get a little toy from machines when done. Big plus, organized and efficient, so no long waits. Dr.. Blair is thorough and works well with kids.

Can't say enough about Dr Blair and her team!! They always make you as comfortable as possible. Everyone is always smiling and saying hello. With a kid on the spectrum is was hard finding a place we both felt comfortable but here we feel right at home. Thank you Dr Blair and your team of amazing women!!
