IF YOU ARE NEW TO TOWN CALL LAKE AREA. DENTISTRY. They are friendly and do excellent Tooth extractions. Never felt a thing! :) Called other local dentist they don't do emergency work nor could see a new patient for a week. Pointless if you are in extreme pain.

Everyone I encountered were very polite and helpful. They create a very welcoming and warm environment, and also provide a program for those without insurance. I'm glad this is where I chose to go.

Dr. Ardoin has been mine and my family's dentist for 23+ years. He's gentle, kind, and meticulous. I've also seen Dr. Azevedo for dental work and she's very knowledgeable and has a wonderful calming energy. Both hygienists are amazing, as well! The entire staff is friendly, helpful, and caring. The office has a homey, welcoming feeling. I refer anyone I know looking for a dental office to Lake Area Dentistry. I always enjoy my visits and will never go anywhere else!
