As someone with dentist phobia, I just had to write a review for this dental practice! I let the dental hygienist, Edith, and Dr. McBarnet know that I was extremely nervous and they did an excellent job at relaxing me and reassuring me every step of the way; from the x rays to the cleaning --so much so that I told them I wanted to go ahead and do the filling the very same day I visited for the first time! They even offered me a blanket when I said I was freezing! They are so compassionate and wonderful people and professionals! If you're looking for a dentist, look no further! This is your place!! (They also have laughing gas for us nervous people out there who can't ever schedule any dental procedures due to anxiety!!) give them a call! They'll take good care of you!

I managed to persuade my husband; who has a serious phobia of dentists, stemming from a bad experience decades ago, to visit a dentist as he was having trouble with his teeth. He picked 'these people' randomly 2 years ago because it was close to his work. Not sure the name of the dentist but he ridiculed my husband on the state of his teeth and embarrassed him to the point that he now refuses to see any dentist again. How dare they !!! What kind of 'person' does that? let alone a 'professional !!???

I had a terrible experience at North forest Dental. I walked in for a cleaning at 10 am and I woke up in ER at St Luke's Hospital due an overdose on anesthesia. My face was swelling I got purple bruces after that. They never call my family to let them know what happened to me, my car was sitting in the parking lot for 2 days I too of that charged me and my insurance $1200 for the cleaning. They are all about the money horrible experience
