This dentist was such a strange experience. The dental hygienist was convinced that all meth was made in hotel coffee pots. I have no clue why she felt that was an appropriate conversation. Also the dentist was rude as well and entirely missed a cavity that I had. I will not be going back to this place nor would I recommend this office to anyone.

I am from out of town with a dental emergency. Dr. Armstrong's office was willing to work me n even though the dentist offices have just reopened due to COVID 19 and are extremely booked up. The staff was extremely helpful and understanding.

What a PHENOMENAL dentist! He tried to be funny - and probably was - but I really do NOT like dentists (which is obvious by my teeth) so my anxiety was through the roof. IDEA: Mini bar in rooms for patients like me! Hey, I think I'm onto something!!! Dr Robert - you made it as good of an experience as it could be. In all honesty... I've found my new dentist! Thanks for everything! UPDATE: Follow up care is SECOND TO NONE! Called and texted me from his personal cell number about 6 hours after my tooth was pulled. Kept in close contact - with after pain I was experiencing. BEST follow up I have ever had from ANY medical professional!

We lived in Cheboygan for three years and were lucky to find a dental office like this. The treatment I received by Dr. Bob and his entire team was unmatched. Great, professional office with kind staff who know their stuff.

Dr. Bob Armstrong and his staff are among some of the most professional and friendly staff that I've ever come across. Their little family makes the trip to the dentist's office something to genuinely look forward to. Dr. Bob looks after the teeth of my whole family and I'd recommend him to everyone.
