I am so glad I have found Modern Dentistry and staff! After suffering a few weeks from debilitating TMJ pain and multiple referrals, I'm glad I decided to do my own research and find Dr. Darancou. From Judy in the front going out of her way to make sure I can be seen the same day, to Denise who made sure I was comfortable despite my pain and being so patient, and of course Dr. Darancou who was someone who finally validated my pain, experiences, and concerns; and made sure I was informed on treatment. I can finally be at ease that I'm in the right hands!

Laura did a great job of getting me a quick appt, and the rest of the team members made me feel welcomed. Every staff member was friendly and professional. Dr.Darancou assessed my needs and acted quickly to eliminate the pain. Procedure was quick and painless. Highly recommend EPMD for extractions. Very clean and organized clinic. Pricing was excellent compared to other dentist's in el paso.

I was impressed with the technology and affordable pricing for those who don't have insurance. I went in not only for a regular cleaning but for a TMJ exam, and the dentist explained what was going on with my bite with a video. Also, to get a night guard that will address my issues, Lien took a detailed scan of my mouth Instead of using those goopy trays dentists and orthodontists typically use. The staff is courteous, friendly, and helpful, and unfortunately, quite a few doctor's offices don't have that. A warm and helpful staff is part of the patient experience, not just the interaction with the doctor. I want to thank Lien and April for being great dental hygienists. Oh, they also take Care Credit and have good promotional pricing!

Very friendly staff, complete family care. They practice the philosophy of "treat problems now before they get out of hand later", which saves a lot of drama in the long run. Great dental emergency care.

This office is the most amazing i have been to in a while. My friend called to see if they can get me in for an emergency. I was traveling and was in so much pain. Not only they got me in right away, but since the first moment i entered the office, everyone was so kind, caring and professional. From the front desk staff to the dentist assistant to the doctor. Anyone that needs a dentist, i highly recommended El Paso Modern Dentistry!
