As usual, my rapport with Nate and staff is excellent. And why wouldn't it be since that's part of your business name. Be looking forward to the new "gem" in my "tiara" in a couple weeks.

The dentist and his assistant did everything possible to make me feel valued, welcome and well taken care of. Rather than rushing the procedure, the dentist made sure the novocaine was working as it needed to for me to have a tooth pulled without fear or discomfort. If you can believe it, the hour I spent there was completely enjoyable, as both the dentist and his assistant were generous with their attention, kindness and care. The dentist was thorough in his work and clear in his instructions afterward about what I need to do to heal promptly and with a minimum of pain. I recommend this dental practice for their professionalism and also for their human warmth.

It was my first time at Dental Excellent, I did a full mouth exam, X-rays, and cleaning. It was a great experience! The customer service is excellent! Everyone is so nice and it is a comfortable experience/ office. Front desk offered to look up what my dental insurance includes which is great info to know so I take advantage of all my benefits if needed. I love teeth cleanings and can't wait to get my second one before the end of the year. :)

I had a crown fall off and they made room for me in quickly. Great dentist and great staff. All in all rather enjoyable, you know, for a dental appointment. I would recommend them, they live up to their name.

I'm so happy with the cosmetic work that Dr. Repta has done. I had internal bleaching. He is very gentle and a total perfectionist. Now I can't wait to get my crowns done and get my smile back! Big thanks to the whole team for making me feel so comfortable. This place is one of a kind.

I recently had my teeth cleaned and examined. Debbie B., hygienist, showed me how I could improve the care of my teeth and gums. I really appreciated it, along with the professional, friendly care at Gentle Dental.

Great place to be for your dental care. From the minute you step into that building you are greeted by the sweetest lady at the front desk, Naomi. The atmosphere is really nice, but the best is the care and professionalism of the doctor Nate and his assistant Livia, I bet the other workers are great too but these guys took care of my teeth .They are very gentle, caring and fun to be around.I appreciate that they explain and show on the screen every single step of the procedure. They are very carefull and detailed in their work, not rushing but concentrating to do a quality job.So far is the best experience I had in a dental office. (P.s. Thanks for the Johnny Cash music in the background , loved it!)
