First thing first, they have the absolute coolest fish tank in any dentist office ever anywhere on earth. Second, I'm pretty sure you have to be really nice to work at this office. Mr shoes, AKA Ian, administers Novocaine better than any drug dealer I've ever met. I believe my dental hygienist today was named Carrie, super nice and gave me some wicked cool shades to protect my eyes from that disgustingly evil bright white dentist light. Thanks Carrie. Last but not least, Dr Balls extraction game is only to be paralleled by the exquisite art known as filling a tooth. If I could give this place 16 stars, I would probably give them 20.

I brought my 13 year old son in on an emergency basis. He had 4 teeth knocked out in a hockey game and our dentist unfortunately had COVID so she sent us to Heather's office. We were blown away by the care and attention we received. They got my son in right away and did 4.5 hours of work to make sure he was comfortable and confident to move forward. They stayed hours after their office closed to attend to him. We are forever grateful for their service, skills and expertise. My son has his beautiful smile back.

I can't rave enough about the quality care my entire family has received here (husband & two children, ages 3 and 6, and myself). Quality care - delivered by quality people. Everyone we have encountered here has been compassionate, knowledgeable and child-oriented. This is an *excellent* dental office for your little ones. I'm so glad this is our dentist!!!

Not really sure what to say. They were and always are amazing. Dr ball and I believe her name was Sarah helped me through getting my first cavities taken care of. They both were so amazing I barely felt the numbing and they kept me comfy and relaxed. This is the place to go!

The staff was nice but once dr. Cadorette split with her old partner we would get random bills in the mail for stuff we didn't even know we owed

I'm always super anxious about my dental visit. Katie was my hygienist today and she was a rock star!!! Her conversation and interest in my life calmed me immediately. I felt she cleaned my teeth carefully yet quickly which was a huge plus. All around great visit due to Katie!!
