I acutally Said. "I'm excited to go back" no one says that about a dentist. Everyone was so sweet and helpful. I felt Comfortable right away. I love How much detail they go into when it comes to your teeth and the procedure that would be done. This is the best dental office!

It was pleasant. It was a check up and clean up where I waited to be seenin a nice clean and calm office. The staff were friendly and called my name to be seated. I sat down in the seat and had my next appointment made and started cleaning. Always a good deep cleaning and provided flouride foam to help the enamel to strengthen and prevent cavities. It was great, calm atmosphere and very helpful staff! I highly recommend. They treat you very well and are invested in you as a person. :)
