Dr. Tepel & his staff are awesome!! Dr. Tepel has been so professional, gentle and attentive. I avoided going to the dentist for longer than I'd like to admit because I had such a fear, but he's proven to me that going to the dentist can be a positive experience. I highly recommend this dentist.

Dr. Tepel is my new dentist after years of miserable experiences with others. Best decision I ever made. He is incredibly patient and gentle which is very important to me as I have a hypersensitivity in my mouth. He is also very careful about checking everything over before letting a patient leave the office. He uses state of the art equipment with x ray images showing up instantly on the computer screen. I will go back in December for another cleaning. Excellent experience all around.
